When it comes to road safety, infrastructure projects, or municipal planning, road signs are one of the most critical components in keeping traffic flowing safely and efficiently. At Madave Signs, we specialise in the design, manufacturing, and delivery of SABS & SANRAL -compliant road signage across South Africa — and we know just how important it is to get it right.
Why Quality Road Signs Matter
Poorly made or incorrectly installed signs aren’t just a nuisance — they’re a liability. A faded, non-reflective, or improperly placed sign can cause confusion, increase the risk of accidents, and expose contractors or municipalities to legal issues. This is why quality, compliance, and durability are non-negotiables when it comes to road signage.
What Makes a Good Road Sign?
Here are the key elements to look for in any road signage product:
- SABS & SANRAL Compliance: Your signs should meet South African Bureau of Standards (SANS 1519) requirements to be considered legal for public roads.
- Reflective Sheeting: Proper visibility day and night — particularly in poor weather conditions — is essential.
- Durability: Signs should be made with corrosion-resistant materials and withstand the rigours of South African weather.
- Correct Mounting Systems: Poles, clamps, and brackets must be built to specification and securely installed.
