Why Hazard Marking Warns Workers Before They Enter Dangerous Areas?
A manufacturing plant in Campbellfield called us after a worker was injured by a robot arm. The robot cell had a safety fence, but the area around the access gate wasn't marked. Workers walked too close while the gate was open for maintenance. The plant needed clear hazard zones around all automated equipment. We marked red and yellow hatched exclusion zones around every robot cell, automated machine, and high-voltage equipment. Keep-out zones with clear boundaries. The safety manager incorporated the marking into their lockout-tagout procedures. Workers now have a visual reference for danger zones. We made a colour error at a chemical plant in Altona in 2015. We marked a corrosive storage area in yellow when it should have been red for dangerous goods. The safety auditor flagged it immediately. We had to change the marking to correct danger colours at our cost, around $1,800. That taught us to verify hazard classifications before selecting colours.

Safety Colours and Signs
AS 1318:1985 specifies safety colours for workplace marking. Red indicates danger or prohibition, yellow indicates caution or warning, black/yellow indicates physical hazards.
Machine Guarding Requirements
AS 4024.1 series covers machine guarding. Floor marking supports guarding by clearly showing danger zones around automated equipment and moving machinery.
Electrical Safety Clearances
AS/NZS 3000 specifies clearances around electrical equipment. Floor marking shows exclusion zones that maintain required clearances from switchboards and high-voltage equipment.
Dangerous Goods Storage
AS 3780 covers dangerous goods storage. Floor marking demarcates dangerous goods areas, bund containment zones, and required clearances from ignition sources.
Robot Safety Requirements
AS 4024.3301 covers robot safety. Floor marking shows robot cell exclusion zones, restricted access areas, and safe standing positions for operators.
Workplace Hazard Identification
Work Health and Safety Regulations require hazard identification and control. Floor marking is a visual control that warns workers of identified hazards.

Frequently Asked Questions
Red indicates danger or prohibition, used for high-risk areas. Yellow indicates caution or warning. Black/yellow hatching indicates physical hazards like trip points or moving equipment. We select colours based on hazard type.
Hatching width depends on the hazard. Equipment swing radius zones match actual movement range plus safety margin. Electrical clearances match AS/NZS 3000 requirements. We design zones based on specific hazard assessments.
Yes, robot cells and automated machinery are common exclusion zone applications. We mark the full movement envelope plus access paths, maintenance zones, and emergency stop positions.
Yes, floor marking can show lockout points, safe standing positions during maintenance, and isolation boundaries. This visual reference supports safer lockout-tagout practices.
We work with your safety team to understand each hazard. Equipment manuals, risk assessments, and relevant standards inform zone boundaries. We don't guess; we verify before marking.
Hazard zones typically receive less traffic than aisles, so marking lasts longer, often 2-3 years. However, visibility is critical for safety marking, so we recommend replacing faded marking promptly.
