Failure Starts Small Poster

The Failure Starts Small Poster turns a simple workshop scene into a quiet but powerful reminder about attention to detail in crane and rigging operations. Featuring a close-up of industrial hardware — a weathered shackle and cable — the image invites reflection on how small components and minor decisions play a critical role in overall safety.

This crane safety poster speaks to operators, riggers, and supervisors who understand that incidents rarely begin with dramatic failure. Instead, they often start with overlooked wear, rushed checks, or assumptions made under pressure. The bold headline and restrained subtext read like a workshop mantra, encouraging a slower, more deliberate approach to inspection, load control, and preparation.

Printed on museum-grade archival paper using high-quality giclée inks, the Failure Starts Small Poster delivers deep blacks, rich midtones, and fine detail without glare. The matte finish keeps the focus on texture and form under varied indoor lighting. Available in multiple sizes, including the popular 24″ × 36″ vertical format, it fits naturally in workshops, site offices, studios, and training environments.

Displayed within the Crane Safety Posters collection, this piece reinforces a culture of awareness where noticing small details helps prevent larger failures during lifting and rigging operations.
