5S Color Coding
While we are on the subject of 5S, there is an important aspect of 5S that needs to be standardized.
A key part of 5S is visual communication. One of the most effective methods of quick, effective visual communication is color coding. We can recognize color coding much quicker and more accurately than we do printed messages.
Although there is no standards organization that has developed 5S color coding standards, a standard has developed through common usage. A chart providing the standard 5S color code is available free from graphic Products. Use the following link:
