To help schools and school districts, we created a new page on our site specifically for schools so that they can learn about RouteArrows and easily request a quote for a PO! Schools face many challenges when planning for safe reopening. RouteArrows are easy to use, eco-friendly, peel-and-stick paper stickers, sized 12" long x 3" wide, and are sold on rolls of 250. With our 20% discount, each RouteArrow costs less than 30 cents!  Since March, over 60 different schools and districts, from elementary through university, totaling over 110 campuses in 22 states, have utilized RouteArrows to help implement their COVID protocols.

Early this year we watched the athletic events universe dwindle to a mere trickle. We’re now seeing RouteArrows being utilized by schools of all types to help guide people in and around their campuses. Historically, many schools have used RouteArrows for their athletic events and now they’re creatively using them as a simple and easy guidance method during Covid-19.

We ask that if...

Many kinds of tape are being used by businesses around the world to quickly convey how people can stay safe. As Berny Tan of @tape_measures states, using tape to make symbols can be “an efficient way of communicating without using words”. We completely agree, simple is better! We also believe that color is a great way to communicate as well. Most humans know that red means stop and green means go - many well trained animals know that too! RouteArrows work for two reasons: their bright colors grab people's attention and their simple shape conveys the direction. Simple, no words...
