Warehouse and factory floor marking and materials

Warehouse and factory marking is one of our company's core activities. Over the years we have built up invaluable experience and many satisfied clients. We renew existing markings and also carry out projects from scratch.

Two main types of marking material are used in warehouses and factories:

Special professional-grade marking tapes, shapes and stickers
Various types of paint, applied with specialised equipment or a paint roller.
SolidLux UV-curing paints, which make marking possible at temperatures down to −20 °C and dry in a few seconds.

Each type of marking has its advantages and disadvantages. To choose the right marking material, please contact our specialists.

"ASB SUPERSTRIPE" floor marking tape

Unlike the marking (barrier) tapes sold in shops, our materials are designed for long-term use. After marking with self-adhesive marking tape, the site is ready for use immediately, unlike a painted surface. Another important factor is the long service life of the PVC material.

Superstripe® is a modern floor marking system that looks great and lasts a long time. It is designed for warehouses, factories, offices, institutions, theatres (with a photoluminescent glow-in-the-dark effect) and elsewhere, and is also suitable for marking various aisles and zones. It is the most durable and effective floor marking tape available. For comparison, while ordinary marking tapes are about 50 µm (0.05 mm) thick, Superstripe is 1000 µm (1 mm) thick! Under heavy traffic, thin marking tapes usually last no more than a few weeks, while we give a 2-year guarantee. From this material we make not only tapes but also various symbols: corners, signs, letters, numbers and text.

Superstripe marking tape specifications

The standard roll length is 30 m. The tape width for indoor use is usually 50 mm, but on request we can make material in other widths, up to 1100 mm.

Businesses are advised to standardise their floor markings and support LEAN 5S initiatives by following the 5S floor marking colour guidelines. This colour scheme complies with OSHA 1910.144 standards. At the same time, businesses may set their own internal rules and adapt the colours to their own judgement and needs.

YELLOW: aisles, traffic lanes and workstations
WHITE: machinery and equipment (workstations, trolleys, displays, stands, etc.)
BLUE, GREEN and/or BLACK: materials and parts, including raw materials and finished products
ORANGE: materials or goods awaiting quality inspection
RED: defects, scrap and areas that need extra attention
RED/WHITE: areas that must be kept clear for safety reasons (fire extinguishers, first aid cabinets, etc.)
BLACK/WHITE: areas that must be kept clear for reasons not related to safety (for example, to keep production running).
BLACK/YELLOW: hazardous areas that expose workers to physical or health risks (for example, containers of flammable or explosive materials); indicates that extra caution is needed when entering and working in the area.

Floor marking with paint

Marking floors with paint has historically been the most common way of marking. Paint certainly lets you cover a much larger area than tape, and on large sites painting also costs less. We offer clients a choice of paint types (water-, solvent-, polyurethane- and epoxy-based). It is applied with airless spray equipment. To discuss your floor marking plans, please contact us. We will survey your site free of charge and give professional advice based not only on theory but on more than 10 years of working with a very wide range of clients. References available on request. The gallery below shows some examples of our warehouse and factory floor marking projects, with both paint and tape.
