Photoluminescent Direction Sign – Marine Escape Route Marker

Ensure passenger and crew safety with our photoluminescent direction signs. Designed specifically for maritime environments, these signs absorb ambient light and emit a bright green glow when illumination fails, guiding personnel to safety along evacuation routes. Fully compliant with SOLAS regulations, they are an essential addition to any vessel's safety equipment.

Unlike electrical signs, photoluminescent signs require no power source, wiring, or batteries. They are the cost-effective and low-maintenance choice for merchant ships, yachts, ferries, and offshore installations. The high-grade photoluminescent pigment provides long-lasting luminance even after extended periods of darkness.

Constructed from durable, water-resistant materials, these signs are resistant to saltwater corrosion, extremes of temperature, and UV degradation. With a strong self-adhesive backing, they can be quickly mounted on vertical surfaces such as bulkheads, doors, and walls. Available in standard ISO sizes, they are easy to install without the need for specialized tools.

Frequently Asked Questions

How long does a photoluminescent direction sign glow?

After activation with 10 minutes of light, the sign glows visibly for at least 60 minutes, and continues to emit a trace luminescence for up to 10 hours.

Does this sign require an electrical connection?

No, it is completely self-contained. The sign absorbs ambient light and uses stored energy to emit light in the dark.

Is it suitable for outdoor use on a ship's deck?

While designed for internal escape routes, it is water-resistant and can withstand spray and condensation. For prolonged direct exposure to weather, a more durable enclosure is recommended.

Can I install it on curved surfaces?

The rigid plate is best suited for flat surfaces. For slightly curved areas, consider cutting flexible photoluminescent tape.
