About this deal

The use of Caution Hot Surface Signs provides legal protection for property owners or employers.

An anodized safety sign or label’s image is actually dyed into the surface of a specialized aluminum material and then put through a chemical process to seal the image into the pores of the aluminum. Although the colors are not as vibrant as an ink-printed label, the color will be protected from heat degradation. As for mounting the anodized sign or label, specialized adhesives can be used that withstand higher temperatures. There are some tasks within the workplace that expose employees to high levels of heat.
