Refuge Point Signage
Refuge Point Signage is essential for guiding mobility-impaired individuals and others who may need assistance to designated safe areas during an emergency. These signs clearly indicate the location of emergency refuge points, ensuring people know where to wait safely for help. By using compliant signage, businesses meet their duties under the Equality Act 2010 and the Safety Signs & Signals Regulations 1996.
Our Refuge Point Signs are manufactured from durable materials and are available in rigid plastic, aluminium and self-adhesive vinyl. Many options include photoluminescent finishes to maintain visibility in smoke or low light conditions. Designed with BS EN ISO 7010 symbols, these signs provide universal clarity and ensure compliance with UK safety standards.
Installing Refuge Point Signage demonstrates a proactive commitment to accessibility and safety. Clearly marked refuge areas reassure staff, visitors and contractors that safe procedures are in place, while also helping emergency services quickly locate and assist those in need. Effective signage supports both legal compliance and inclusive safety planning.
