Brady’s ToughStripe floor marking shapes, like dots, arrows and footprints, serve as additional visual communication cues within a plant. Floor marking shapes like dots and dashes require less maintenance if one shape needs to be replaced due to damage. Foot prints can help indicate where to properly stand by a machine and arrows can help with directional traffic.
The 5S color-coding system designates color selection for marking certain areas of a facility. As part of 5S implementation, Brady's visual workplace experts suggest using orange Toughstripe floor tape to mark QA inspection areas, as orange floor tape indicates materials or product held for inspection.
As part of the 5S color coding process, Brady's visual workplace experts recommend using ToughStripe red floor tape to mark scrap and rejects. Red floor tape signifies defects, scrap, rework and red tag areas and indicates to employees content in the marked areas is removed for a reason.

Brady's visual workplace experts recommend using yellow floor marking tape to mark aisles and work areas. Visual workplace uses visual cues to guide employee behavior; yellow is a color that can imply caution, much like with traffic signals, so by using yellow floor tape, employees pay attention to the distinction between aisles and traffic areas.
ToughStripe is a new floor marking tape created by Brady Corporation. The floor marking tape is proved to withstand forklift traffic better than other tap-based floor tape. With constant traffic demands within any manufacturing facility, the long-term adhesion and durability ensures less maintenance.
As part of the 5S workplace organization system, Brady recommends using ToughStripe’s red-and-white striped floor tape to mark areas to be kept clear for safety and compliance reasons. Red-and-white floor tape should be used in front of electrical panels, firefighting equipment and safety equipment like eyewash stations, safety showers and first aid stations.
Using Brady's ToughStripe floor signs to enforce safety and traffic rules make it easy for lean practitioners to post critical information right where it's needed on the shop floor. Floor signs create a "just-in-time" training and communication system which ensures that best practices remain clearly visible and consistently adhered to by everyone in the plant. The ToughStripe brand of products are proven to be more durable under forklift traffic, last longer because of stronger adhesion, and therefore require less maintenance.
As part of the 5S workplace organization system, Brady recommends using black-and-yellow striped floor tape to mark physical and health hazards in the workplace. The black-and-yellow striped floor tape indicates areas that may expose employees to special physical or health hazards, to indicate special caution should be used when entering and working in the area.
Workers and visitors alike must wear a variety of safety equipment to visit the Waste Treatment Plant (WTP). Hard hats, reflective vests, safety goggles, ear plugs, and steel-toed work boots are the main requirements for personal protective equipment (PPE) here.
Use Brady’s ToughStripe corner floor marks to mark pallet storage areas. Corner floor marks are a 5S practice that indicate where items within a facility should be stored, or returned to, to maintain workflow. For areas with heavy traffic, using corner floor marks can outline a space but are less likely to be damaged by a forklift or pallet.
As part of the 5S workplace organization practice, Brady's experts suggest using black-and-white striped floor tape to mark areas to be kept clear for operational reasons. Black-and-white striped floor tape indicates areas that should be kept clear for operational purposes that aren’t related to safety and compliance.
Brady’s ToughStripe floor marking dashes simplify repair if tape is damaged by heavy skids. Floor marking dashes offer more structure to an work area than just corner floor marks, and are ideal for bigger spaces that need more definition.
The application of Brady’s ToughStripe floor tape can be done by one person working alone, increasing workplace efficiency. The floor tape is easy to apply in a straight line and can also be easily removed, when desired, in one long piece rather than breaking into small chunks of tape.
OSHA requires that permanent aisles and passageways must be clearly indicated and the best practice is to use floor marking tape. To help facilities comply with OSHA standards, Brady recommends black, white and yellow (or combinations of) floor marking tape be used to designate traffic or housekeeping areas.

To avoid victimization the faces have been blotted out so that the individuals can not be identified.
For added visual impact within a facility, Brady experts suggest applying floor tape hashmarks inside the border area. Floor tape hashmarks used throughout the footprint of the marked space can help discourage the use of open space for unintended purposes.
