Traffic Cones

What Are Traffic Cones?

Traffic cones are brightly coloured, usually orange or fluorescent, cone-shaped markers used to direct traffic, indicate hazards, or restrict access to specific areas. Made from durable materials such as PVC, rubber, or polyurethane, traffic cones are designed to withstand impacts, extreme weather, and daily wear and tear. For other essential site products, see our Cleaning and Site Supplies.

Available in various sizes, traffic cones can be used for small pedestrian areas, standard roads, or heavy-duty industrial zones. Many models feature reflective strips for high visibility during the day and night, weighted bases for stability, and stackable designs for easy storage and transport.

Benefits of Traffic Cones

Traffic cones offer multiple advantages for workplace and road safety:

• Superior Hazard Alerting – They act as a highly visible warning system, immediately alerting drivers and pedestrians to hazards, roadworks, or restricted areas, thereby preventing accidents and collisions. For specific site hazards, we offer clear Warning Signs.

• WHS & Compliance Tool – Their use is often mandated by safety procedures, helping businesses comply with strict health and safety standards on road projects and worksites.

• Durable & Long-Term Reliability – Constructed from high-quality, impact-resistant materials to withstand heavy traffic and harsh Australian weather, ensuring consistent performance over years of use and minimizing the need for replacement.

• Versatile & Quick Deployment – Suitable for a wide variety of scenarios—roads, car parks, construction sites, and events—and are lightweight, portable, and easy to deploy or remove wherever needed.

• Cost-Effective Risk Reduction – They provide a low-cost, high-impact solution that reduces potential damage, liability exposure, and operational disruptions associated with unmarked hazards. Ensure compliance by adding Mandatory Signs where required.

• Maximum Visibility – Bright colours and reflective strips make cones noticeable in all light conditions, further enhancing awareness and safety.

By providing clear visual cues, traffic cones contribute to safer workplaces, roadways, and public areas, helping prevent injuries and damage. Where required, reinforce safe practices with Prevent Injury Signs.

Why Invest in Traffic Cones?

For any Australian business involved in site works, logistics, or public space management, Traffic Cones are the foundational line of defence against workplace health and safety (WHS) failures. Investing in a quality, compliant set of cones is not optional—it’s a simple, high-impact way to secure your financial position. They ensure that your worksite immediately meets regulatory requirements, actively minimising legal and insurance liability from accidents caused by unmarked hazards.

This minimal outlay delivers a massive return by protecting your team, the public, and expensive equipment, guaranteeing that critical operations remain safe, organised, and free from costly interruptions. Clearly mark restricted access with Prohibition Signs.

Industries and Applications

Traffic cones are widely used in industries and environments where traffic control and hazard marking are essential. Common applications include:

• Roadworks and Construction – Marking lanes, restricted areas, and hazards to protect workers and drivers.

• Warehousing and Industrial Sites – Indicating forklift routes, loading zones, or dangerous areas. Use Danger Signs for critical threats.

• Events and Public Gatherings – Directing pedestrians, vehicles, or temporary parking areas.

• Schools and Sports Facilities – Organising parking, play areas, or temporary road closures.

• Emergency Services – Marking accident scenes or hazardous areas quickly and effectively. For everyday information, we stock a range of General Signs.

In all these scenarios, traffic cones provide an inexpensive yet highly effective way to maintain safety, manage movement, and prevent accidents.
