EVERYGLOW® Photoluminescent Egress Tape for Escape Routes
1. Overview
EVERYGLOW® Photoluminescent Egress Tape is a professional-grade, self-adhesive safety film designed to create continuous, visible guidance paths in total darkness. Engineered for rapid installation, this tape is the primary solution for marking handrails, door frames, baseboards, and egress routes in compliance with international fire safety and building codes.
Unlike standard decorative glow tapes, EVERYGLOW® Photoluminescent Egress Tape is a specialized safety product featuring high-performance strontium aluminate pigments that ensure critical navigation points remain visible even through heavy smoke or during sudden power failures.
2. Key Features
- High-Intensity Luminescence: Provides a brilliant afterglow that exceeds DIN 67510 Class C and D standards, ensuring visibility for over 10 uren.
- Rapid Charging: Fully charges in just 10–15 minutes when exposed to standard fluorescent, LED, or natural light.
- Strong Self-Adhesive Backing: Equipped with a high-tack, pressure-sensitive acrylic adhesive that bonds securely to metal, wood, plastic, and painted surfaces.
- Flexible & Conformable: The PET/PVC base allows the tape to wrap easily around curved surfaces like handrails and pipes without lifting.
- Safety Certified: Niet giftig, niet-radioactief, and lead-free, making it safe for all environments, including hospitals and schools.
