Different types of Signage

There are various uses of signage and different types of signage too. Every company will always have their trademark name as a sign post so you will always find different names everywhere. A sign is very important as otherwise people will never be able to find a particular place. Earlier signs were made out of wood and paint, today they are electronic and with colourful lighting and immediately draw your attention.

Different types of Signage

Name Sign

The first thing that is recognisable about a building is the name sign. May it be a hospital, church, school or a company if there isn’t a sign outside then people will never be able to locate it in the first place. A name sign also sometimes has a few more details like trademarks, address, or some catchy slogan of the company or place. This is an important tool required even for brand building. The famous “M” of McDonald’s burgers became famous only after it was used on the signage.

Logo

Many companies also have the logo as a sign on the building, like the three pointed star of Mercedes Benz will always let you know which building you are entering. Logos are the easiest way of recognising a brand and if you have it as a sign then it is all the better for brand building and advertising. A cool and innovative logo sign can also make the company popular.

Compulsory Signage

Safety regulations require buildings to have some compulsory signage like EXIT signs or signs indicating HIS and HER toilets. It is also compulsory to have parking signs put up especially to mark spots for handicapped people. Hospitals too need to have the Red Cross on the building stating that the building is a medical facility.

Directions

Directions signs are primarily put on roads to direct commuters and to give them information like distance and speed limits. In a building directions to certain offices or utility services need to be given. Without such signs people would be completely lost and it would result in losing precious time and energy.

Name Boards

Name signs are very important as they indicate the name of the person sitting at the desk and also lets you know their designation and credentials. And there are also Photo ID Cards which serve the purpose.

Some tips for signage:

• It should be clear and concise.

• The name of the company must be the main writing on the sign. Then the services or goods on offer should be stated.

• The sign should be in accordance to the company logo and colours.

• It should be place at such a place that is easily visible. Some signs can be large so that they can be seen even from a distance.

• Each sign should be unique and should not resemble any other sign.

• If it is a direction sign then the words should be legible and large enough to be seen from even a distance.

• There are some compulsory signs that have to be put up like an EXIT sign or a hospital cross that is easily seen.

• A sign should be such that it is visible in the night as well as the day.

• The colours should not be garish or unappealing. Sometimes even sober colours look attractive like the blue of IBM.
