5S uses color to sort the floor by function. The common scheme is yellow for aisles and traffic lanes, white for equipment and workstations, red for defects, scrap, and red-tag items, red and white for fire and safety equipment that must stay clear, black and yellow for a physical or health hazard, and blue or green for raw materials, work in progress, and finished goods. Build the scheme from solid and striped rolls, and see our 5S floor markers for the shapes and corners.
We sell different types of durable floor tapes to meet your needs. For heavy forklift and pallet-jack traffic, we recommend the beveled-edge Superior Mark tape and the SmartMark ultra-durable tape, and for a permanent line that stays down for years, the Last Mark tape. These are the industrial-grade lines built for a working warehouse rather than a light-duty office tape.
Yes, when you choose an industrial tape. The SmartMark and Superior Mark lines use an aggressive adhesive that bonds to concrete, epoxy, and sealed floors and resists moisture, oils, chemicals, and abrasion. The Superior Mark beveled edge lets a forklift wheel ride up over the tape instead of catching and peeling it, which is what makes it last on a busy floor.
For proper application, preparation is most of the job. Clean and dry the floor first, removing dust, grease, and any old adhesive, then lay the tape and press it down firmly with a roller or the pressure of a foot to seat the adhesive. Work in a warm space if you can, since cold slows the bond. Good floor prep is the single biggest reason a line lasts, which is why our reviewers who prep the floor report the tape stays put for years.
A standard vinyl tape is thin, flexible, and economical, which is fine for a low-traffic office or a temporary line. A heavy industrial tape is thicker and tougher, often with a beveled or ramped edge so forklift wheels roll over it, and it uses a stronger adhesive for concrete. For a warehouse or plant floor, the heavier tape lasts far longer, so match the tape to the traffic rather than the lowest price.
Yes. Reflective vinyl tape bounces back light from a forklift headlight or flashlight, which helps in a dim aisle or a loading area that runs at night. For a walking surface, the Glow Gator Grip tape is photo-luminescent, so it charges under the lights and glows during a power loss while also adding anti-slip grit. Both keep a marked path visible when the lights are low or out.
Yes. Anti-slip tape has a gritty surface that grips underfoot, which makes it ideal for stair treads, ramps, and wet or oily walkways. The Glow Gator Grip tape adds traction and a glow for low light, and our full anti-slip floor tape range covers plain black grit and high-visibility colors for the edge of each step.
Yes. Our custom floor marking tape can carry a safety message, directional text, or your own legend printed right into the tape, so a rule like "Keep Clear" or "Watch Your Step" reads from the floor itself. Pick the width, color, and message. For a facility-wide or multi-site order, call our team at (800) 952-1457 (Mon to Fri, 8:00 am to 7:00 pm EST) or email customerservice@smartsign.com for a quote.
We make industry-leading floor marking tape. A well-marked floor is the foundation of an organized, safe facility, because it defines the aisles, separates people from forklifts, and marks the areas that have to stay clear. We recommend our Floor Marking tape for aisles, work cells, hazard borders, and 5S color coding. Choose from solid, striped, message, and anti-slip tapes plus custom-printed rolls, engineered to bond to concrete and stand up to forklift traffic.
