About to relaunch your business following lockdown?
Remember, before you open up, you must be ‘COVID-19 secure’.
The government has recently published guidelines for eight sectors, outlining exactly what businesses must do to safely re-open. Steps include carrying out a thorough risk assessment, creating hygiene and handwash stations, and maintaining a safe distance – by putting up social distancing signs, which remind people to stay two metres apart.
That’s where we can help, here at Vinyline Graphics. As a leading supplier of business and shop front signs, we have developed a new range of social distancing display solutions – all of which comply with government regulations and will earn your business its ‘COVID-19 secure’ badge. Invest in yours today and take the first step towards a successful relaunch.
6 social distancing signs to help re-open your business
1. Floor graphics
Our social distancing floor graphics include 300mm and 400mm circular discs and 1000mm x 400mm rectangles – both made from anti-slip laminate.
Starting from £8 per graphic (with a minimum order requirement of ten), these are a worthwhile investment for a diverse range of businesses – including shops, offices, cafes, restaurants, factories etc. They can be used for two main purposes: to remind people of social distancing rules and as ‘guide markers’, to show customers exactly where they need to stand to maintain a two metre distance.
2. Barrier stands and banners
Barrier stands are a particularly useful option for a retail or hospitality business.
You will need to calculate the maximum number of customers that can reasonably follow social distancing within the store. Once you reach capacity, customers will have to queue outside – and this social distancing sign is a great way to organise the queue, whilst reminding people of the rules.
They can measure either 1m, 1.5m and 2m wide and start from just £245.
3. Pull-up stands
Measuring 2000mm x 800mm, these are a large social distancing sign, perfect for use in all working environments. Two artwork options are available to choose from. The first reminds staff and customers to stay two metres apart, whilst the second offers step-by-step instructions on how to wash hands correctly. Both are priced at £50.
4. Pavement signs
Designed for use on the pavement outside your business premises, we also have pavement social distancing signs and A-boards in two sizes – A1 and A2.
Once again, these can be supplied with two different designs – one that acts as a friendly reminder to observe social distancing, the other offering guidance on how to hand wash. However, customised versions are also available. Prices for these start at £150.
5. Table display
Our social distancing table displays come in A4 as standard and are an essential investment for hospitality businesses, where food and drink will be served (e.g. bars, restaurants, cafés, pubs etc.). Placed in the centre of each table, they will remind your customers to remain at a safe distance at all times and pay using contactless methods where possible.
Alternatively, they can be positioned alongside hygiene stations and on-site hand washing facilities, and used to display crucial guidance on how to clean your hands.
6. Informational wall panels
Priced from just £25 per wall panel, these are a cost-effective option for any small-medium business.
Again, there are two standard artwork options to choose from: one with handwashing instructions and one telling people to stay two metres apart. Both of which can be supplied in A1 and A2 size and can be applied to the walls inside and outside of your premises.

Social distancing signs FAQs
Which social distancing signs do I need?
According to the latest government campaign – HANDS, FACE, SPACE – people must wash their hands, cover their face and keep a social distance as much as possible. And, if you run a business, you will need signs that encourage staff and customers to comply with these behaviours.
The right type of social distancing signs for you will depend on the nature of your business.
For example, if your company is office-based, it may be worth investing in pull-up stands and informational wall panels – which remind people to stay 2 metres apart or provide detailed handwashing instructions. Whereas, if you’re the manager of a shop or restaurant, directional floor graphics, pavement barrier stands and table displays may be more beneficial.
Here at Vinyline Graphics, we offer a diverse range of social distancing and face mask signs, with something to suit all requirements. These can either be supplied as standard or tailored specifically to your business. And if you’d like a little advice on the best social distancing signage to comply with government guidance, please feel free to get in touch at any time. We’re always happy to help.
Are social distancing signs required by law?
Technically, no; social distancing signs are not a legal requirement. But for your business to be deemed ‘COVID-secure’, social distancing should form part of your COVID-19 risk assessment. And you must ensure that both employees and other people visiting your premises understand and comply with the measures in place – including both social distancing and face coverings.
Signs are an easy, cost-effective way to do that.
Placed in the ideal location, they will quickly make people aware of the latest government guidance – without you having to remind them in person – and help to keep both your staff and clientele safe. They’re available for an affordable price and can be easily installed and removed, as necessary.
