With the announcement that non-essential shops will be able to reopen on the 15th of June, now is the perfect time to order your social distancing displays to ensure that you meet the regulations.
We’ve put together a guide to a few products that are perfect with helping you to social distance at work and reduce the spread of Coronavirus.

Our Coronavirus Pavement signs are the perfect way to attract customers back into your store post lockdown.
These exterior signs are a great way to show your shop is open and remind customers of the social distancing rules in place.
They can also be placed outside of schools or office blocks to ensure social distancing in the workplace.
To make it quick and easy for you we have designed a range of social distancing posters for schools, retail outlets and corporate environments.

Social distancing floor stickers are a cost-effective way of distancing in any setting.
Different materials allow you to use stickers on hard floors, short pile carpet stickers or even outside on surfaces such as concrete.
Outside your store, round stickers are ideal for organising queues, whilst inside, directional arrows are a great solution for creating one-way systems to meet distancing regulations.
