Emergency Instructions

Emergency Instruction Leaflets

In critical situations, having access to clear and concise instructions can make all the difference. Our custom-printed emergency instructional leaflets are designed to provide vital information quickly and effectively, helping to save lives and ensure preparedness. Whether it's first aid guidance, evacuation procedures, or safety protocols, these leaflets are an essential tool for communicating crucial instructions.

Lightweight and easy to handle, they are perfect for rapid distribution during emergencies or as part of pre-planned safety measures. Highly customisable, they can be tailored to include the specific details and branding you require, ensuring your message is both professional and impactful.

One of the standout advantages of emergency instructional leaflets is their portability and versatility. Compact and lightweight, they can be distributed by hand during emergencies, included in emergency kits, or displayed in our cardboard leaflet dispensers in high-traffic areas for easy accessibility. Their convenient size ensures they are easy to carry, ensuring essential information reaches those who need it most, as quickly as possible.

We offer a range of sizes from A4 to A6, and even A7 for paper less than 300gsm, giving you flexibility in how your information is presented. Additionally, all emergency instructional leaflets printed on 130gsm or 170gsm paper are tax-exempt, making them a cost-effective solution for businesses and organisations committed to safety and preparedness.

By choosing our emergency instructional leaflets, you are equipping individuals and communities with a reliable, accessible resource that can make a real difference in times of need.

All folded leaflets printed on 130gsm and 170gsm sized A4 to A6, or A7 on paper less than 250gsm, are tax-exempt.

How To Design Emergency Instructional Leaflets

• Artwork templates are available for download to assist with setting up your files. These include the panel widths required too.

• Before submitting emergency instructional leaflet artwork, we recommend you print a mock-up to check that the artwork is positioned correctly.

• When creating any leaflet, please supply your artwork as a 2-page, double-sided PDF. For example, on an A4 folded to A5, page 1 should display pages 4 & 1 of the leaflet, and page 2 should display pages 2 & 3, as shown in this illustration. 

• When creating artwork with a landscape fold, please submit the front and back pages on the same page, with the front page orientation correct and the back page rotated 180°. The inside pages should be on page 2 and rotated 180° so that the orientation is correct on the final print. You can check that the orientation is correct by printing a mock-up before submitting your artwork.

• Please note that for artwork that includes coloured backgrounds or coloured elements which overlap the fold lines, we would recommend ordering our laminated leaflets to protect the ink and paper from cracking and to provide a smooth fold.
