I've been offered some hazard signs (yellow triangle, black !)to be placed on farm pesticide stores FOC but, they carry the sponsors logo discretely beneath. There is no other wording. Is there any reason why these signs should not be used? All that I can find under The Health and Safety (Safety Signs and Signals) Regulations 1996 guidance and information is 'small differences from the pictograms shown in the Schedule are acceptable as long as they do not affect or confuse the message conveyed.'and 'warning signs should contain no more information than is necessary to inform the reader of its meaning.' Any thoughts?

I see no reason why not if they are as you describe and are of the correct size and colour scheme.

I tend to agree, but it's always good to get another angle. Thanks.

No problem at all. We brand our own signs.

Thanks. I think that's cleared that up.
