Frequently Asked Questions.
What are card safety tags and when should I use them?
Card safety tags are printed cardboard tags used to communicate hazards, equipment status, or isolation warnings in the workplace. They are typically attached to machinery, tools, or electrical equipment to warn workers not to operate, start, or use that item until it has been cleared. Common examples include “Danger Out of Service,” “Do Not Start,” and “Locked Out Do Not Use” tags. Card tags are suited to general industrial, maintenance, and trade environments where a durable but cost effective solution is required, and are available in standard sizes such as 145 x 90 mm.
Can I customise safety tags with our company logo & specific messaging?
Yes. AAA Print Group can produce fully custom card safety tags with your logo, business name, contact details, or a tailored safety message. This is particularly useful for businesses that need tags to reflect specific procedures, regulatory language, or branding requirements. Custom tags are printed in house at the Canning Vale facility, which allows for accurate quality control and faster turnaround compared to outsourced suppliers. To get started, submit a quote request with your tag code, quantity, and any artwork requirements.
Are your safety tags compliant with Australian workplace safety standards?
Yes. AAA Print Group safety tags are designed to support compliance with Australian WHS regulations and relevant industry standards. When used as part of a documented safety management system, they can also contribute to meeting ISO 45001 Occupational Health and Safety requirements. Tags such as isolation and Do Not Operate tags are particularly relevant to lockout and tagout procedures, which are a requirement under WHS legislation for the control of hazardous energy. If you are unsure which tag type meets your specific regulatory obligations, your WHS officer or safety consultant can advise on the appropriate specification.
What materials are your safety tags made from?
AAA Print Group’s card safety tags are printed on heavy duty card stock designed to hold up in demanding work environments. For sites requiring greater resilience, options such as tearproof and polypropylene materials are also available. The right material depends on your worksite conditions; card tags work well in general indoor or light industrial settings, while harsher outdoor or wet environments may call for a more robust alternative. Contact the team to discuss which option suits your application.
