Please Leave This Basin Clean For The Next User Signs give washroom users a clear hygiene reminder at shared basins, helping you reduce mess, complaints and avoidable cleaning follow-ups.
The Please Leave This Basin Clean For The Next User Sign is a self-adhesive washroom hygiene sign for shared basins in workplaces, schools, cafés and public facilities. It helps you prompt users to wipe away mess before the next person arrives, reducing avoidable complaints.
Best Position For Basin Hygiene Prompts
You should install this sign directly above, beside or facing shared basins where users look before leaving. Good visibility matters because the reminder works best at the exact point where water splashes, soap residue and everyday mess are left behind.
Viewing Distance Guidance
Use this size for close-range washroom reading. It suits basin areas where users are normally within 1–3 metres, such as staff toilets, school washrooms, cafés, offices and public handwashing points.
| Size option | Practical viewing range | Best location |
|---|---|---|
| H210 x W297mm | Approx. 1–3 metres | Above or beside shared basins |

Frequently asked questions
Is the Please Leave This Basin Clean For The Next User Sign suitable for staff washrooms? Yes. It is a good choice where the same basins are used repeatedly and you want a polite reminder without needing a harsher instruction.
Should this be placed above every basin? Use it where the issue happens most often. One well-positioned sign above a shared basin bank can be more useful than several signs placed where users do not look.
Will the vinyl backing stick to tiles? It is supplied with self-adhesive backing, so you should apply it to clean, dry, smooth tiles or similar flat surfaces. Avoid dusty, wet or uneven areas.
Does this sign have an EN ISO 7010 symbol? No. This is a text-only information sign, so there is no EN ISO 7010 pictogram code to apply.
Is it right for severe hygiene problems? It helps with user behaviour, but it should not replace cleaning schedules, leak repairs, waste provision or supervision where the washroom needs stronger management.
