What do our customers say?

Flawless installation without production stoppage

"After a serious incident with a corrosive substance at a competitor, we decided not to wait any longer. Nedelko quickly delivered complete emergency showers to our production site. The advice was pragmatic and the installation went smoothly, without any production stoppage. Their team took the time to train all our employees.

Finally a supplier who understands us

"What sets Nedelko apart is their specialized knowledge. Their advisor Lourens had more practical experience with safety standards than the inspector who audited us! They immediately understood the challenges of our cleanroom environment and came up with a solution that no one else could offer: a custom-made stainless steel eye wash station that fully complies with our strict hygiene protocols."

All about safety icons: functions, visibility, and material selection

Safety icons are not just signs on the wall — they form the backbone of any thoughtful safety strategy. In work environments where risks of tripping, fire, explosion, or evacuation exist, icons provide direct and universal communication. They reduce interpretative errors and increase response speed in emergencies.

Why safety icons are truly essential

  • Direct, non-verbal communication: Icons are designed according to the NEN-EN-ISO 7010 standard. This means they are universally understood worldwide, regardless of language or background.
  • Preventive effect: They not only prompt action (e.g., wearing PPE), but also help to anticipate risks by guiding behavior.
  • Legally required: In many sectors, the use of safety icons is legally mandated (Working Conditions Decree, ISO 3864, CE marking).

Visibility: crucial for effectiveness

A safety icon that goes unnoticed is ineffective — and therefore dangerous. That's why proper positioning is crucial. According to the ISO 3864-1 standard, each icon must consider viewing distance, viewing angle, color contrasts, and lighting conditions.

Additionally, there are special versions for:

  • Smoke-sensitive environments – Such as on ship decks or in chemical installations.
  • Buildings at risk of power outage – Where photoluminescent signs are mandatory for emergency exits and escape route lighting.
  • Outdoor and UV exposure – Weather-resistant material with colorfast ink is necessary here (think industrial sites or parking lots).

Material selection: tailored to location & stress

At Nedelko, we supply safety icons in various material compositions, depending on the environment in which they are used:

  • Self-adhesive polyester: Impact-resistant, easy to apply, suitable for flat indoor surfaces.
  • Polypropylene sheet (PP): Budget-friendly, lightweight, good for indoor mounting in dry locations.
  • Aluminum / Dibond: Highly durable, weather-resistant, suitable for rough industrial environments or outdoor use.
  • Photoluminescent PVC: Glows in the dark, essential for escape routes during power outages or fires.

We recommend considering temperature range, humidity, mounting surface, and maintenance frequency when choosing materials.

Types of safety icons: tailored to situation

You can categorize safety icons into the following ISO 7010 categories:

  • Mandatory signs (blue): For example: Wear hearing protection, Use safety harness.
  • Prohibition signs (red): For example: No smoking, No unauthorized access.
  • Warning signs (yellow): For example: Explosion hazard, Slippery floor.
  • Emergency exit / rescue (green): For example: Exit left, First aid station.
  • Firefighting (red): For example: Fire extinguisher, Fire hose reel.
