Warning sign 

These traffic signs warn of something, so that road users can increase their concentration and reduce their speed. They include “Animal crossing” signs that warn of particular animals such as hedgehogs, wild boar or frogs in the vicinity. Warning signs often have a red border, yellow background and triangular shape.

Prohibition signs 

A prohibition sign indicates a demand or request. They can refer, for instance, to a requirement for protective clothing, permitted driving manner or parking times. This type of road sign often has a white border, a blue background and is usually round.  

Information signs 

A clear information sign can highlight locations, flea markets or shops. A professional-looking road sign to convey information often has a white border, a blue background and white text.

However, when buying a road sign, it should be noted that it is illegal to put up signs that are too similar to official signs on public roads. If there is a risk that drivers will lose concentration or be misled, the signs may be outright dangerous.

At Signomatic, you can order an aluminium road sign with a reflective background and text to make it more visible to road users.
