Safety tape, the floor marking tape, is better than painting lines on a factory floor. Keep workers safe with color coding that lasts a long time. Employees can avoid struck-by accidents if their work area is visually marked. / / Clean the floors well prior to installing safety tape. Avoid chlorine or citrus based cleaners, because they inhibit adhesion. Install the tape in a straight line, then compress it with at least 250 pounds to ensure a strong bond. / / Forklifts and trucks may drive on the tape after 24 hours. However, to prolong the life of the tape, they should not accelerate, brake or do extreme turns on the safety tape. / / Cleaning is easy. Mop it like you would all flooring areas.
