The battery-operated ice warning signs use bright LEDs that continuously flash when the temperature drops to 3°C or lower and can be mounted onto posts or walls with zero maintenance needed.
Exclusively manufactured by Limelight Signs, the Ice Guardian is distributed worldwide with over 1,000 signs sent to the USA over the last year.
Designed to reduce ice-related accidents, the sign indicates when the road conditions are dangerously icy as well as advises when it is time to grit your car or walkway. The focus on health and safety has caught the attention of the Met Office which is now a regular customer.
The Ice Guardian is in place in thousands of places throughout the UK and Ireland, such as car parks, quarry sites, universities, colleges, schools, train stations, airports, site yards, and army barracks”
Jonathon Helm, sales coordinator at Limelight Signs, comments: “The Ice Guardian was launched in 2013 and sales have continuously grown each year. The Ice Guardian is in place in thousands of places throughout the UK and Ireland, such as car parks, quarry sites, universities, colleges, schools, train stations, airports, site yards, and army barracks.”
Helm explains that the product has received a positive response from customers, many of whom have become repeat customers by trialling the sign and then returning to roll them out across all sites.
A new American-style diamond sign has been added to the range
In addition to this, the Ice Guardian was showcased at the Traffex/Parkex trade show in April which Helm describes as “a huge success”.
As popularity has grown, Limelight Signs has recently launched a range of new designs such as site safety Ice Guardian which incorporates site rules, a dual-purpose Ice Guardian which incorporates a site speed limit, an American-style diamond warning sign and a portable bollard Ice Guardian.
