Graphics, Signage

Construction sites, characterized by their inherent risks, necessitate clear, concise signage to mitigate hazards effectively. However, beyond safety, construction signage also plays a critical role in increasing job site efficiencies and transforming the construction environment into a powerful marketing platform. When strategically designed, printed, and installed, construction signs serve as powerful, multifaceted tools for any business in the industry – from contractors to international construction firms, alike.

Safety First: Safety and Regulatory Compliance Signs

At the core of construction signage is the commitment to safety and regulatory compliance. SpeedPro’s custom signage solutions are meticulously designed to meet the specific requirements of the construction industry, ensuring that every sign, from hazard warnings to PPE directives, is compliant and effective. Our expertise extends to creating signage that adheres to ADA standards, promoting accessibility and safety for all site visitors – as well as the entire roster of standardized warning and hazard signs required for most job sites.

Increasing Job Site Efficiencies: Informational and Wayfinding Signs

Increased efficiencies on a job site can yield significant cost savings – in some cases, creating operational savings that could equate to tens of thousands of dollars. 

Most importantly, efficient site operation hinges on clear communication and cohesive navigation, ensuring that everyone on site has a thorough understanding of where they are located and how to move throughout the space. This is where wayfinding signage comes into play. These signs are indispensable for large, complex construction sites where navigation can be challenging and dangerous. 

Wayfinding signage helps in demarcating specific zones like construction entrances, exits, delivery points, and pedestrian pathways, ensuring smooth and safe movement around the site. They also assist in emergencies by pointing out the quickest routes to safety. When designed and placed strategically, however, customized signage can be installed throughout the site – beyond standard compliance signs – to increase efficiencies and drive valuable cost savings as a result.

The Job Site as a Marketing Platform: Branded Construction Signs

A construction site also presents a unique (and spatially huge) opportunity for marketing and branding, with the ability to turn the site itself into a multi-dimensional advertisement for the construction firm. Due to the large spaces involved with most construction sites, large-format signs excel the most, here – which is exactly what SpeedPro specializes in. These colossal signs drive brand awareness by capturing public interest and featuring the firm’s logo, project renderings, and key information. Construction projects are often operational for long periods, as well, making these signs far more fruitful than a month-long campaign using a traditional billboard.
