The Role Of Photoluminescent Signs In The Event Of A Fire

Why Photoluminescent Signs Are So Important

Should a fire occur which results in a power outage, there is always a brief period before the emergency lights kick in. It is in this moment where people can start to panic. Unsure on where to go and with an element of fear, this can be an extremely dangerous situation. However, with the use of photoluminescent signs, these circumstances become a lot more manageable. 

Photoluminescent signs give off a strong light source which helps to ease the sense of panic. They also display evacuation instructions allowing the building’s occupants to leave in a safe manner. Within this time period it is likely that the emergency lights will also have come on, giving people an even clearer evacuation route.

Our Photoluminescent Signs

At Fire Protection Services, our photoluminescent signs are manufactured in materials which are tested to DIN 67 510 Part 1 and exceed the requirements of DIN 67 540 Part 4 and P.S.P.A. Class A. This means that our signs are extremely luminous and long lasting, making them the perfect choice for your commercial building.

We have also ensured that all signs sold by us meet the Health & Safety (Safety Signs & Signals) Regulations of 1st April 1996, as well as the British Standard BS5499-4:2000. This should show that these signs are of the highest possible quality and will help to safely evacuate your building’s occupants in the event of a fire.
