So what is it with putting stickers or decals on a hard hat? Well the list is nearly endless, but here are a few of the many uses they can serve.
Now the list is nowhere near exhaustive so I apologize if I have left some out.
But feel free to use your imagination.
Here goes.
Identification If you are working on a large construction project, there can be hundreds of hard hats in the locker room.
But there will only be one that you have adjusted to your exact size and will sit comfortably and safely all day long.
Put your sticker on it and you will find your own hat every time.
Also job titles - How embarrassing is it when the latest red neck tells the CEO how it really is? Do I have to go there? A simple decal on their hardhat would immediately identify the fact that the "suit" was the Big Cheese.
Make it Personal You want to stick out from the crowd and let everyone know what you are about.
You are a Bulls fanatic perhaps, or a Giants fan, then a hardhat sticker with your team's colours on will let everyone know where you are at.
Stars and Stripes, Skull and Cross Bones, Daffy Duck, Road Runner, whatever floats your boat, they are out there.
Promotion and Branding Get hard hat stickers with your corporate logo and show who you are on site.
Make sure visitors wear hats with your decal on so they don't forget which of the many sites they are visiting that day.
You would be surprised how many photos are taken once your visitors are kitted out in PPE and your logo is front and center.
This seems to happen mainly when you get the " High Ups" coming to see how the Project is progressing.
In fact while you are at it, get your logos on the high visibility jackets too.
There is no such thing as bad publicity, they say.
Site Safety One of the best ways of reinforcing important safety messages is to have a sticker made and put on every hard hat.
Just think about it for a second.
Whilst you will only see the message once or twice on your own hardhat, every time you see someone else, the safety message will be there in front of your eyes.
Very simple I know but at the same time, very effective.
Security and Tracking Site security is paramount nowadays.
Stickers are a way of identifying who it is in what area, and at what time.
You can even use them to allow or deny access to certain personnel in specified zones.
Now this will not be down to the hardhat stickers themselves.
Other technology will be required to apply the intelligence, such as CCTV, bar code readers or scanners, but you can see what is possible.
