ANSI Z535 (Standard for Safety Colors)

ANSI Z535 is a standard that specifies the colors used to communicate safety information in workplaces and environments. It helps ensure that safety signs, labels, and signals are consistent and easily recognizable. For example, specific colors like red indicate danger or emergency, yellow signals caution, and green shows safety or safe conditions. This uniform color coding helps people quickly understand and respond to hazards, reducing accidents and improving safety awareness. The standard promotes clear, effective communication of safety messages through consistent use of colors across various settings.
