Banana Safety Cones: Keeping Our Students Safe

Help me give my students the Banana Shaped Safety Cones so that we can reduce the risk of slip and fall accidents on wet, slippery school floors.

My Project

Our school's lunchroom is used daily to serve breakfast and lunch daily to over 340 students. We currently use traditional A-frame warning signs whenever a spill happens. However, these signs are easily ignored by our students, which leads to an increased risk to their safety. I would like to replace our school's current warning signs with a more effective shaped cone.

Banana Safety Cones has changed the way people see and identify safety signs and provides a more effective method for avoiding slips and falls.

With their unique and highly recognizable banana shape, the Banana Safety Cones are a kid friendly tool that is attention grabbing and will help to improve student safety. Using Banana Safety Cones have proven to be 22 times more successful than the standard A-frame warning signs resulting in fewer slip and fall accidents. I would love to have these banana shaped cones available for use in our lunchroom.
