As we drive on the road, we glance at the various traffic signs that stand on the side of the road and hang above our heads, with white characters on a red background, black characters on a yellow background, white characters on a blue background... they are all diverse. Although they are there quietly, they are "silent traffic police" to ensure safety and point the direction at critical moments. Especially road traffic warning signs, which are directly related to driving safety. Let’s not talk about safety and road order in vain. Let’s start with Jiangsu, a major manufacturing province. If you want to find a reliable Jiangsu manufacturer to supply these warning signs, which may seem simple but are actually very deep, what should you pay attention to? Don’t think that it is just a piece of iron sheet with some paint. The water inside may be a little deeper than you think.
We have to understand that traffic warning signs are first a "serious product" and then an "industrial product". What does that mean? That is to say, its first attribute is public safety products , must comply with the national standard (GB), ministry standard, road traffic signs and markings (GB 5768) series of standards, that is the iron law and the bottom line. There are many manufacturers in Jiangsu with different sizes, technical strength and quality awareness. Some small workshops may offer attractive prices, but you ask them which grade of reflective film is used (engineering grade, high-strength grade, or diamond grade? ), is the thickness of the aluminum plate sufficient (2mm or 3mm? Was there any cheating? ), what is the material and welding process of the bottom plate and chute? He may just tell you. When looking for a manufacturer, don’t look at the price at first glance. Look at the “qualification” and “professionalism” first. Does it have a formal production license? Are there any successful cases of supplying to municipal, highway and traffic control departments in the past? Is the workshop mainly manual knocking, or does it have CNC shearing, bending, welding, screen printing or laminating assembly lines? These hardware and software capabilities determine the basic quality of the product.
Speaking of materials, this is the "body" of signs. Aluminum plates are now the mainstream 3 series aluminum alloy , rust-proof, lightweight, easy to process, thickness is the key, and the national standard has requirements. However, in actual supply, 2.5mm or even thinner ones are used to pretend to be 3mm. It is not impossible. This depends on the contract to make it clear, and even random inspections when necessary. The reflective film is the "eye" of the sign. , it shines at night and in bad weather, engineering grade, high-strength grade, super-strength grade (diamond grade), the reflective effect and durability are very different, used on ordinary urban roads, national and provincial roads, highways, or areas with sharp bends and steep slopes where accidents are prone, the grade selected It's completely different. A responsible manufacturer will carefully check the usage environment with you and give you suggestions instead of blindly recommending the cheapest or most expensive. In terms of structure, there are single columns, double columns, cantilevers, and portal frames. There are different support methods, wind load resistance, and structural strength calculations and materials. (For example, the wall thickness of the steel pipe and the size of the flange) are very particular. In windy weather, if the brand is blown around or even falls over, it is no joke. Good manufacturers either have their own design capabilities or can provide rigorous mechanical calculations.
Let’s talk about the production process. Whether the work is fine or not will directly affect the beauty and life of the sign. Are the cutting edges smooth and burr-free? Is the bending angle accurate? Are the welded parts firm and smooth (especially outdoors, rough welding joints are prone to rust first)? The most important thing is Graphic and text production , now the mainstream is reflective film with lettering or screen printing, and the edges should be neat without bubbles, wrinkles or warping. ; For printing, the ink adhesion should be strong, the color difference should be small, and the weather resistance should be good. The standardization of patterns and text is extremely important. If an arrow points in the wrong direction, or a number marks the wrong speed limit, the consequences will be disastrous. This requires manufacturers to have strict quality control and inspection processes, instead of throwing them away after they are finished.
Okay, assuming that the material and craftsmanship are all passed, the next step is Supply link , traffic signs are often not a single one, but a batch or a set. Can the manufacturer supply goods on time, in quantity, and in order? Is the packaging firm enough to ensure that it will not be deformed or scratched after long-distance transportation? Especially for large signs or cantilever components, transportation and hoisting solutions need to be considered. Jiangsu has an advantageous geographical location and developed land and water transportation. This is an advantage, but it also means that manufacturers must have mature logistics coordination capabilities.
I have to mention it Serve , this thing is not a one-time purchase. Installation guidance (although the construction party is usually responsible, but it is important for the manufacturer to provide technical support), later maintenance (such as partial replacement of reflective film), and response speed to quality issues all reflect a manufacturer's sense of responsibility. Some manufacturers will ignore it after selling, while others can provide long-term guarantees. This is completely different for the purchaser. When looking for supplies from manufacturers in Jiangsu, don’t just focus on the aura of “Jiangsu” as the place of origin and the numbers on the quotation. Ask more questions, read more, compare more, and ask them: “How long will this brand of reflective film last? How is the warranty calculated? ”“How long is the production cycle of this batch of goods, and can it keep up with our construction progress? ”“Are there any supply cases of similar road sections? Can we take a look at the actual photos? ” Even if conditions permit, going to the factory for a tour is much more effective than looking at sample books in the office.
In the final analysis, when purchasing traffic warning signs, you are not buying a piece of iron or a few sheets of film. What you are buying is a "safety responsibility" and a respect for the lives of road users. Finding a Jiangsu manufacturer with excellent technology, stable quality, and reliable work and establishing long-term cooperation is truly worry-free and reassuring. After all, we are the people who run on the road. Safety cannot be overemphasized. Do you think this is true?
