Across industrial sites, businesses are embracing new workplace safety technologies, yet many still rely on traditional painted and printed safety signage. Automated projected signage helps transform workplace safety, says Projected Image.

More businesses are exploring automated projected safety signage as a more effective way to improve workplace safety.

That’s according to Projected Image, leading UK suppliers of LED gobo projectors and experts in projected safety signage for businesses in warehousing, automotive, food and beverage, and more.

By combining powerful LED gobo projectors with motion or light sensors, projected signage helps improve safety for workplaces.

“Traditional painted and printed safety signs can easily be ignored or missed, especially in busy environments where they become faded or viewed so often that workers become subconsciously ‘blind’ to them. However, by automating signage – and using projections, which are bright, clear and difficult to ignore – workplaces are transforming safety and making facilities more efficient” says Ian Spoors, Projected Image’s Managing Director.

Projected signs are especially impactful in areas where traditional floor or wall signage is likely to become worn, obscured or ignored. Projected signage remains clear even in low light, on wet surfaces or where layouts frequently change. Projected signage is more likely to be adhered to as it’s only visible when needed.

“Automated projected signage consists of a gobo projector shining a bright safety message when triggered by a sensor, such as when an approaching forklift is detected. By only projecting safety messages when needed, automated projected signage systems improve sign visibility, reduce sign blindness and help teams respond to potential risks in real time, creating a safer workplace!” adds Ian.

Projected Image have implemented projected signage for a wide range of businesses, including Coca-Cola, Mercedes-Benz and Dunbia, among others.

“We recently delivered an automated system for a leading renewable energy manufacturer. The system warns pedestrians of forklifts when approaching roller doors, shining brighter and clearer safety messages, which significantly improved their health and safety measures” says Ian.

Projected Image is the only business in the UK who supply both powerful, IP-rated LED projectors and the bespoke gobos which go in them. Its durable LED projectors offer up to 50,000 hours of lamp life.

“Automated projected signage isn’t just a visual upgrade for businesses – it’s a smarter way to communicate safety messages. By combining bright, clear signs with automation, businesses can manage workplace risks in a way that traditional signage simply can’t” concludes Ian.
