More information on the Floor Marking

Tips for Floor Marking
OSHA Regulations require that permanent aisles and pas- sageways must be marked- ANSI Z535.2 Safety Color Code designates Yellow as the caution color to be used for marking physical hazards such as stumbling, falling or tripping points. Industrial Floor Marking Tapes are usually recognized as the most convenient and inexpensive way to mark aisles since painted lines tend to chip, peel and crack especially in areas with heavier traffic.

Aisle Width
OSHA's general requirement for aisles and passageways is that "sufficient safe clearances" must be provided where mechanical equipment is used. The width required will vary depending upon how the aisle is utilized in the workplace- as aisleways that utilize forklift and truck traffic will need to be wider than aisles for pedestrian traffic. A good average size is 36 inches. Additionally, inside storage rooms containing flammable and combustible liquids, aisles must be at least three feet wide, and for emergency exit access points, 28 inches is the mini- mum allowed width.

Tape Width
The required minimum width for facility aisle and floor marking lines is 2"- therefore any width above that is considered acceptable by OSHA and ANSI. Typical applications use tape in 2" - 6" width.
