Why this warning sign earns its place
Commercial microwave ovens are workhorses in any catering environment — fast reheating, consistent results, reliable day after day. But they're also one of the easiest ways to cause a serious burn. The door seals are barely visible, steam escapes in a hot plume, and metal objects inside a running microwave cause arcing. A moment's inattention, and someone's grabbing a hot container, inserting a fork, or standing too close.
This 300 × 100 mm warning sign marks the danger zones on or near the microwave frame. It's self-adhesive vinyl, so it stays put in a humid, hot kitchen without peeling or degrading. The symbol and text are bold and instantly recognisable, warning against inserting metal, opening the door carelessly, or touching the exterior during operation. Position it where staff or customers can't miss it — on the microwave frame itself, or on the counter immediately adjacent.
Unlike a laminated label that peels, stains, or curls, this vinyl sign survives the working kitchen. It's not expensive, and it prevents the kind of accident that costs a business far more than the cost of compliance.
