Making Safety Signs

A new section about making safety signs was added to our web site today. It describes four methods for making safety signs. Actually the first one is not a method for making signs as it just says to buy the signs you need... preprinted and ready to go.

The second method is to use a vinyl tape printer such as the DuraLabel. These printers use vinyl tapes up to four inches wide. Tapes can be joined (tiled) to create larger signs.

To make larger signs a vinyl cutter is used. Vinyl cutters can cut out adhesive-backed vinyl letters that are up to 72 inches tall. Cut text and graphics can be applied to a sign board, window, glass door or vehicle.

The last method is to use a poster printer. A poster printer is a large format printer that connects to you PC. It can print on a variety of materials including economical paper, or heavy-duty poly-papers.
