"Read in a hurry by somebody who was not looking for it."
Safety and wayfinding signs work on symbol first and wording second, because they are read at speed. We plan wayfinding as a system from the entrance inward, in Arabic and English together, rather than supplying signs one at a time.
Corporate office reception desks, law firm partner offices, medical practice consultation rooms, government department offices, hotel front desk and concierge stations, bank branch manager desks, real estate agency offices, educational institution administrators, hospital ward stations, consulting firm executive suites, accounting practice offices, and any professional business requiring employee identification across Dubai, Abu Dhabi, Sharjah, and all UAE.

Safety signs are read in a hurry by somebody who is not looking for them, which is why the symbol carries the message and the words only confirm it.
Acrylic safety signs suit interiors where the sign has to look considered as well as legible, and they clean easily in hospitality and clinical settings.
Road safety signs and parking signs face weather and vehicle lighting, so reflectivity and mounting height are set by the site rather than by preference.
No parking signs are the most reordered item in this range, because they are the ones that get taken, damaged or driven into.
Wayfinding systems are planned as a set rather than a list of signs, working from the entrance inward so a visitor is never left without the next instruction.
Wayfinding signage dubai projects usually need Arabic and English together, and the two scripts need equal weight rather than one treated as a translation of the other.
Direction signage at each decision point carries only the choices available there, and adding everything else is what makes a system unreadable.
Directional outdoor signs and wayfinding outdoor signs face sun and distance, so the type size follows the viewing distance rather than the panel size.
Office toilet signage, office prayer area signage and office kitchen signage are the three most requested facility signs in this market, and a matching set reads far better than three bought separately.
Clinic identification signs carry room numbers, department names and often a practitioner name, and the format has to allow a name change without a full replacement.
A wayfinding plan starts by walking the route a visitor takes rather than by listing rooms. Every point where somebody has to choose a direction gets a sign, and every point where they do not gets nothing.
The most common failure is over signing. A corridor with a sign every few metres stops being read at all, because the eye learns there is nothing new on them.
Mounting height is set once for the whole building. Overhead signs work at junctions where people are walking, wall signs work at doors where people have stopped, and mixing the two heights on one route makes both harder to find.
Safety symbols follow published standards and are not redrawn to match a brand. The colour, the shape and the pictogram are all specified, and changing any of them removes the legal standing of the sign.
Interior signs run in acrylic or foamex, which clean easily and cost little to replace. Exterior and vehicle facing signs need aluminium or dibond with uv stable ink, and reflective film wherever headlights are involved.
Fire and emergency signage carries its own requirements including photoluminescent material, and that is specified by the fire consultant rather than chosen from a catalogue.
We supply across the Emirates with Arabic and English on the same panel, sized so neither script is subordinate to the other.
