If you thought glow-in-the-dark applications were just for kids, think again. Photoluminescent technology can save lives and recently the luminescence technology made a major breakthrough.
What was the breakthrough? Photoluminescent technology/products are available for specific use on concrete surface areas.
When would you need to illuminate a concrete surface?
Illuminating concrete is crucial during times of emergency. There might be a power outage and the only way people can safely evacuate a building is finding emergency exits immediately. The illuminated concrete can quickly and safely guide people out of harms way. During a fire emergency, photoluminescent technology can reduce poor visibility, even when thick smoke is present.
G&M Services recommends applying photoluminescent technology particularly to concrete floors and stairwells to reduce injuries and loss of life during emergency evacuations. In fact, test have identified that photoluminescent technology improves visibility more than any other light source during a fire emergency or extended power outage.
Best of all, photoluminescent technology is harmless to the natural environment because it features no volatile chemical compounds. Photoluminescent technology is virtually non-toxic making it very flexible in usage.
To put it simple, photoluminescent technology will save your commercial business time and money by reducing the amount of money you would need to spend on emergency light fixtures / emergency exit applications.
As you save money, you will save energy, reduce your energy bill and reduce light pollution coming from your building structure.
It only takes the photoluminescent technology being exposed to ambient light for an hour to ensure good visibility.
