Compliance-ready safety signage to help cleaning professionals and firms meet health and safety requirements
GTSE’s new category gives cleaning professionals across UK warehouses, factories, hotels, schools, farms and public spaces a single place to buy safety, regulatory and information signs, with customisation available on every sign.
GTSE.co.uk, the online trade supplies retailer, has launched a new signage category with over 6,600 products, giving UK employers a straightforward way to buy the safety and regulatory signs they need to stay compliant.
Under UK health and safety rules, employers must clearly identify hazards, emergency exits and mandatory instructions where risks cannot be eliminated by other means. The new range is built around this duty, covering fire, exit and emergency escape, mandatory, prohibition, warning and first aid signs, plus photoluminescent, Braille and tactile, and multi-lingual options.
GTSE has also added facilities and industrial signage (including floor graphics, anti-slip products and 5S/6S products), wayfinding and general information signs, and the fixings needed to install them. Every sign can be customised. Customers who need a bespoke design can contact the GTSE team directly.
Tom Armenante, Co-Founder and Director at GTSE.co.uk said: “Signage is a natural extension of what we already offer, and we wanted to make it easier for our trade customers to get the products they need to run safe, compliant workplaces from one place. We’ve seen growing demand for signage from businesses already buying our safety and trade supplies, so expanding into this category was a straightforward next step. Our aim is to take some of the complexity out of workplace compliance.”
To help customers choose correctly, GTSE has published Safety Signage Buyer’s Guides covering the Safety Signs and Signals Regulations 1996, sign colours and shapes, PPE signs, photoluminescent signs and assembly point signage.
Mikey Callaghan, Trade Supplies Expert and Digital Marketing Assistant at GTSE.co.uk added: “Signage is a natural extension of our existing workplace safety range, which includes items such as, floor marking and hazard tape. We’ve seen increasing demand from our existing customer base for this type of product, particularly from those within the warehousing and logistics, manufacturing, construction, education, agriculture, facilities management and housing sectors.”
