Photoluminescent Wayfinding Tape for Marine Escape Routes

This photoluminescent wayfinding tape is engineered specifically for marine environments, providing reliable visual guidance along escape routes, corridors, stairways, and assembly stations. The tape absorbs ambient light and re-emits it as a bright green glow in darkness, enabling safe navigation during power failures or emergency conditions. Constructed from durable PVC film with a high-tack acrylic adhesive, it adheres firmly to bulkheads, floors, and even slightly curved surfaces, ensuring long-lasting performance in demanding shipboard conditions.

Compliant with IMO resolution A.752(18) and ISO 17398, this tape meets international safety standards for emergency preparedness. Its advanced photoluminescent pigment offers rapid activation and a prolonged afterglow, maintaining visibility for up to 12 hours after just 15 minutes of light exposure. Resistant to seawater, humidity, and temperature fluctuations, the tape is ideal for both indoor and outdoor applications. Easy to install with a release liner backing, it reduces downtime and enhances crew safety without requiring electrical power or maintenance.

Whether used as continuous strips along walkways, arrows indicating exit directions, or marking hazardous areas, this photoluminescent wayfinding tape is a practical and cost-effective solution for marine safety compliance. Choose from standard 50mm or 100mm widths and 10m rolls, with custom sizes available upon request. Ensure your vessel is prepared for any emergency with this dependable and visible safety product.

Frequently Asked Questions

What safety standards does this photoluminescent tape meet?

It complies with IMO resolution A.752(18) and ISO 17398, which govern the luminance and performance of photoluminescent systems on marine vessels.

How long does the tape glow after exposure to light?

After absorbing light for 15 minutes, the tape will glow brightly for up to 12 hours in complete darkness, with the initial luminance exceeding 1200 mcd/m².

Can this tape be installed on uneven or textured surfaces?

While the tape performs best on smooth, clean surfaces, it can be applied to slightly textured surfaces if they are free of oil and debris. For floor installations, we recommend additional fixing with a suitable marine adhesive for maximum durability.

Is the tape resistant to fuel and cleaning chemicals?

Yes, it is resistant to common marine fuels, oils, and cleaning agents, including diluted saltwater solutions. However, prolonged exposure to harsh solvents may reduce adhesive performance over time.
