Wayfinding & Identification Stencils

Wayfinding, safety and Identification stencils are designed to create clear, consistent, and durable markings on floors, walls, equipment, or other surfaces.

Wayfinding stencils are widely used across various industries enhancing navigation with visual graphic design and information. Typically they are used in commercial buildings such as shopping centres, construction sites, ship building and ship yards, railways and airports. Wayfinding stencils can include lines on the ground to indicate a way out, symbols and colours to indicate male/female toilets, accessible toilets, lifts and cycle storage shelters etc.

Safety information stencils are regularly used in the workplace. This could include warehouses, airports, construction sites and exhibition arenas. The safety signs and icons help to ensure compliance with regulations. They can indicate danger areas, harmful substances, fire escapes etc.

ID stencils for stock control are practical tools used to mark and identify inventory or assets in warehouses, retail stores, factories, or other storage environments. These stencils help improve organization, tracking, and efficiency in managing stock by providing a consistent and clear method for labelling items, shelves, or storage locations.
