Slow - Floor Graphic - Safety Signs by Caledonia Signs

A "Slow" floor graphic is a visual safety cue designed to alert pedestrians or equipment operators (like forklift drivers) to reduce their speed in specific areas. It serves as a proactive measure to prevent accidents, collisions, or injuries in high-traffic or potentially hazardous zones. By being placed directly on the walking or driving surface, it catches attention at the point where it's most needed.

Floor graphics like these are especially effective in environments where overhead or wall signs might be missed due to distractions, obstructions, or clutter. The bold design and contrasting colours ensure high visibility, encouraging cautious movement. They help reinforce existing safety protocols and promote mindful behaviour in shared workspaces or public areas.

"Slow" floor graphics should be used in any area where reducing speed is critical for safety. Common locations include warehouse aisles, loading docks, forklift crossing zones, sharp turns, blind spots, and pedestrian walkways. They are also useful in schools, hospitals, parking garages, and event venues—anywhere foot or vehicle traffic needs to be moderated.

These graphics are ideal for indoor environments with smooth, clean flooring and can be made from durable, anti-slip materials to withstand heavy traffic. Placement should be strategic—just before an intersection, near entrances/exits, or at the beginning of high-risk zones—to maximise impact and ensure people have time to react accordingly.

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