Mercedes-Benz has upgraded worker safety at its UK manufacturing facilities by incorporating advanced projected LED signage, designed by Newcastle-based Projected Image. Unlike traditional printed or painted signs, these projected signs are brighter, more visible, and customizable, offering a more effective safety solution in high-risk environments.
The innovative signage can be easily adapted to display various safety messages by replacing a glass optical filter, known as a ‘gobo.’ The company provides both indoor and outdoor projectors, ensuring the signage performs well in different lighting conditions and facility sizes. Additionally, the projectors are equipped with scaling adjustments and ‘keystone correction’ to ensure clear visibility, even on angled surfaces.
Projected LED signs have proven particularly beneficial in automotive manufacturing facilities, where oils and vehicle liquids often damage traditional signage. These projected signs remain vivid and legible, even in low-adhesion environments. Their consistent brightness also ensures they won’t be overlooked in high-traffic areas, addressing common issues like ‘sign blindness.’
As automotive manufacturers face costly downtime due to accidents or maintenance, projected safety signs are becoming a go-to solution for improving health and safety. With increasing demand in the automotive sector, Projected Image is proud to collaborate with major brands to deliver reliable, long-lasting safety signage.
These compact, energy-efficient LED projectors are easy to install by qualified electricians, making them an ideal solution for any commercial or industrial setting.
