5mph - Floor Graphic - Safety Signs by Caledonia Signs

A 5mph floor graphic should be used to clearly communicate a speed limit in areas where slow and cautious movement is essential for safety. It serves as a visual reminder to drivers of vehicles such as forklifts, tuggers, or delivery carts to reduce speed and operate carefully. This is especially important in environments where pedestrians and vehicles share space or where tight corners and limited visibility increase the risk of collisions.

These graphics are particularly effective because they are placed directly on the ground, where drivers naturally look as they operate their vehicles. Unlike wall-mounted signs, floor graphics are in the operator’s line of sight, ensuring the speed limit is noticed and followed. The bold, simple design of a 5mph graphic enhances its visibility and reinforces workplace safety protocols.

You should use 5mph floor graphics in warehouses, loading bays, production facilities, and distribution centres where vehicle movement is common. They are also useful in parking garages, indoor construction zones, and any area where equipment is operated near people or delicate infrastructure.

Strategic placement is key—install them at site entrances, near pedestrian crossings, in narrow aisles, or before sharp turns. Durable, anti-slip materials should be used to withstand foot and vehicle traffic while maintaining visibility over time.

We recommend the use of primer, edge sealer and floor cleaning fluids for improved adhesion.

Floor Graphic:Sub surface printed underneath a durable polycarbonate layer laminated with a hard-wearing, anti-slip film. This construction protects the graphic from wear, scratches, and moisture, ensuring long-lasting vibrancy and clarity while providing excellent traction to reduce slip risks. Easy to clean and resistant to damage, these floor graphics are ideal for high-traffic indoor and outdoor areas like retail spaces, hospitals, and factories, combining safety, durability, and eye-catching visuals in one effective solution.
