Quality Photoluminescent Signs & Products in Cincinnati, OH

If you want to make sure your building’s occupants are safe in a fire or other life-threatening emergency, exit path markings are a vital — and legally mandated — part of your fire and life safety systems.

No matter the circumstances of power, lighting and general visibility, photoluminescent signage saves lives by guiding building occupants to a safe location or exit route in an emergency. This is something standard signage can’t guarantee, even if you have a reliable source of backup lighting in your building.

This is where photoluminescent signage and products come into play. These simple glow-in-the-dark signage products can ensure your Cincinnati building never lacks effective exit markings and other important signage.

How Photoluminescent Products Work

Photoluminescent signage is simple in principle, leveraging glow-in-the-dark photoluminescent materials in standard signage displays. These materials store energy when exposed to light and release that energy in the dark, causing the signage to stay visible even when lighting fails. Our photoluminescent markings meet the standards required to comply with fire codes, building codes, UL standards and NFPA standards.

You can expect these products to stay visible in the dark for a minimum of 30 minutes, with some materials and products staying viable for as long as 30 hours. With a variety of forms and straightforward installation solutions, it’s easy to provide effective, fully compliant exit markings for your properties in Cincinnati or across Ohio, Kentucky and Indiana.
