Savings and Benefits
• No electricity, wiring or batteries
• Zero operating costs
• Reduced maintenance costs
• Sustainable 25 yr+ life-cycle
• Non-toxic, no radiation
• 1-Year ROI potential
• LEED qualified
No Electricity Required
Photoluminescent exit signs are powered by ambient light and do not require electricity or a back-up power system. This significantly reducing operating costs
Reduced Maintenance
Photoluminescent exit signs provide for vastly simplified inspection requirements
OSHA requires all electrified exit signs to be inspected on a monthly basis (battery backup test) with once yearly inspection including full discharge of backup power source. The results are to be recorded and kept on file to conform to code-required safety inspections and confirm reliable operation of all exit signs
Photoluminescent signs only require visual inspection to confirm sign is undamaged and adequate ambient light is present for proper daily charging on the signs
Environmentally Sustainable
Photoluminescent exit signs are non-toxic, non-radioactive, have 25 year life-cycle, and support LEED certification
Available in a wide range of sizes and styles - Universal mounting kits for quick and versatile inst
We carry the widest range of photoluminescent exit signs to meet any performance and aesthetic requirements
No batteries or backup power required for power outages
Zero maintenance - no bulbs, no back-up battery inspections or replacement
Safer, Economical, Recyclable
Photoluminescent exit signs offer the safest, most economical and environmentally friendly option for code compliant exit sign safety
UL 924 compliance explained
What is UL 924?
UL 924 is the standard for Emergency Lighting and Power Equipment. Created by Underwriters Laboratories, it certifies exit signs, emergency lights, and battery backup systems for safety, performance, and reliability during power outages. UL 924 is required by NFPA 101, IBC, IFC, OSHA, and most local fire codes across the U.S.
Why UL 924 Matters?
- Verifies exit signs and emergency lights meet critical brightness and duration requirements
- Ensures reliable backup power and fast startup during an outage
- Supports life safety systems during fire marshal inspections
- Protects liability, reduces insurance risk, and supports AHJ approvals
- If it’s not UL 924 listed, it likely isn’t code compliant
Reduced operating and Maintenance Costs
Photoluminescent exit signs are UL 924 compliant and feature zero energy consumption, drastically educed maintenance costs, and have long service life (25 years)
Reduce energy consumption
Typical exit signs are lit 24/7/365 and consume up to $90 of electricity on a yearly basis. Multiply this times the number of exit signs and the long-term savings become quickly evident. Do not forget the ever-increasing energy bill
Reduced Maintenance - Save labor and costs for monthly inspections
OSHA requires all exit signs to be inspected on a monthly basis (battery backup test) with once yearly inspection including full discharge of backup power source. The results are to be recorded and kept on file to confirm with code-required safety inspections to confirm reliable operation of all exit signs
Massive ROI
In a 20-sign example, photoluminescent exit signs pay for themselves in under 4 years and deliver average savings of $48,000 over 20 years
