ISO 3864 and ISO 7010
ISO 3864-1 fixes the safety colours and the geometric shapes. ISO 7010 is the register of pictograms drawn to them. Together they govern signage in workplaces, public buildings and outdoor areas.
DENFOIL® SIGNS · LABELS · MARKING
Professional marking for demanding environments
Signs, labels and marking systems for industrial, maritime and public environments, supported by clear documentation and local expertise.
A product family for each marking task
Open a family to see its categories, the standards that apply to that line, and the route to a distributor in your region.
ISO 7010 Safety Signs
Registered ISO 7010 pictograms for industry, construction and public buildings.
Maritime Signs
Signage for ships, offshore installations and yards, following the symbols of IMO Resolution A.1116(30).
Safety Marking
Pipe and tank identification, technical labels and GHS hazard content for plant.
Floor Marking
Anti-slip tape, floor-marking tape and floor-mounted signs for working traffic areas.
By environment
The environment decides the specification
The family answers what you are marking. The environment answers what the marking has to survive.
Industrial
Production, warehousing and process plant. Abrasion from traffic, cleaning method and frequency, chemical exposure, and the temperature range the process actually runs at.
Machinery, pipework and floors
Maritime and offshore
Ships, offshore installations and yards. Salt air, moisture and low temperature act on substrate and adhesive alike, and escape routes have to stay identifiable when lighting fails.
Checked against maritime requirements
Public and commercial
Offices, retail, public buildings, transport and outdoor areas. Mechanical load is lower, so legibility, wayfinding consistency across a site and accessibility carry the specification.
Read at close range by the public
Standards
Which rules apply where
What a marking has to satisfy is decided by where it goes, not by what it is made of. These are the rule sets that recur across the families above; each family page sets out the standards for that line in detail.
SOLAS, IMO A.1116(30) and ISO 24409-1
Escape route signs and equipment location markings on board follow IMO Resolution A.1116(30), which applies under SOLAS chapters II-2 and III. ISO 24409-1 sets the design principles for shipboard safety signs, fire control plan signs and safety markings.
ISO 20560 and ISO 14726
Pipe marking divides by where the pipe runs. Land-based plant uses the ISO 20560 information labels; piping on board is identified by the ISO 14726 colour codes instead. The two are not mixed in one specification.
ISO 16069 and DIN 67510-1
Way guidance has to stay readable when the lighting fails. ISO 16069 is assessed for the installed system rather than for a single product, and DIN 67510-1 is how the photoluminescent material itself is measured.
