Wayfinding signage has a specific purpose. It is created in order to provide direction, communicate information, and resolve unfamiliarity within a location. In order to be effective for your business, the information displayed on directional signage needs to be clear as well as strategically placed throughout your facility. Simply put, custom wayfinding signs have to be in the right place, provide straightforward directions, be noticeable, and be AODA compliant.
The Accessibility for Ontarians with Disabilities Act (AODA) was signed in 2005 and since that time there have been standards set, such as colour contrast, that govern the design and installation of signage in order to support persons with disabilities. AODA signs are now required by law and it is up to Mississauga business owners to ensure that their businesses are compliant.
When you want your business to stand out above the rest, sometimes a simple sign just isn’t enough. If your company’s signage goals go beyond basic advertising, it’s time to look at architecture signage and what it can do for your Mississauga business.
