Everything you need to know about prohibition signs

What are prohibition signs?

Prohibition signs are an essential part of safety signage and serve to protect people and property. They give clear instructions on what must not be done in a certain place. A prohibition sign therefore signals a specific prohibition that must be strictly adhered to in order to avoid accidents and hazards.

What do they look like?

Prohibition signs are characterized by their round shape with a red border, white background and a black pictogram crossed out by a red horizontal bar. This design complies with the DIN EN ISO 7010 standard, which ensures uniform and comprehensible marking – both nationally and internationally.

What are they used for?

Typical prohibition signs include “No smoking”, “No naked flames” and “No unauthorized access”. They can be found in companies, on construction sites, in laboratories or even in public areas. The use of prohibition signs ensures that dangerous behavior is avoided – for everyone’s safety.

Prohibition signs are not only useful, they are also required by law. Those who rely on professional safety signage not only protect employees, but also themselves from legal consequences.

Safety signs & information signs – your basis for a safe working environment

Whether industrial hall, construction site, office or warehouse: wherever people work, one thing is particularly important – safety. Safety signs and information signs are a central component of effective occupational safety. They provide orientation, minimize risks and meet important legal requirements.

Clear marking – clear responsibility

Safety signs are used to quickly and clearly indicate hazards, instructions, prohibitions or escape routes. They are standardized in accordance with DIN EN ISO 7010 and uniform throughout Europe – so that everyone understands them, regardless of language or background knowledge. This increases safety for employees, customers, suppliers and visitors alike.

Signs supplement these symbols with specific information. Texts such as “Caution, hot surface”, “Only enter with hearing protection” or “Keep emergency exit clear” provide clear instructions and promote safe behavior in everyday life.

Why safety signage is so important

• Avoid accidents
  Clear warning signs help to identify hazards at an early stage – before an accident occurs.
• Act quickly in an emergency
  Escape route and first aid signs provide reliable guidance in an emergency – every second counts.
• Comply with legal regulations
  Safety signage is mandatory. The Workplace Ordinance (ArbStättV) and the Technical Rules for Workplaces (ASR A1.3) define where and how signs must be placed.
• Creating trust
  Visibly paying attention to safety shows responsibility – this strengthens the trust of employees and outsiders in your company.
