Alrode factories need SANS 1186 safety signs, ACP name boards and floor marking for warehouses, and transport firms want truck decals.

Schools order sports day banners and mesh fence wraps that cope with Highveld wind and summer storms.
Print, signs and branding in Alberton
Factories on one side, family suburbs on the other: Alberton's print work is split down the middle. Alrode is one of the larger manufacturing areas in the south of Gauteng, and its plants order roll labels, carton stickers, safety signs, embroidered overalls and branded vehicles. Across the town, Brackenhurst, Brackendowns, Randhart and the estates of Meyersdal are full of schools and congregations that order newsletters, bazaar flyers, wedding invitations and sports kit. Thokoza and Katlehong add steady funeral, church and taxi rank print. Print shops sit around New Redruth and the main shopping centre, while sign makers and screen printers work from Alrode and the smaller industrial stands. Summer hail and Highveld sun are hard on outdoor signs.
Typical signage requests in the area come from:

- Families and individuals: a house name plate, a gate board or a home business sign at the driveway
