Visibly. Enhance. Safety.

 Photoluminescent materials incorporate inorganic phosphor molecules that  absorb UV light, converts the light to energy that it then stores like a  battery. The phosphors then release this energy in the form of visible light.  The chemical and physical processes of photoluminescent materials, if appropriately stabilized against environmental and UV degradation, can achieve infinite duty cycles with the current class of Strontium Aluminate based phosphors.

Unlike the glow-in-the-dark frisbees we used to throw around (zinc sulfide) that didn't glow very bright or for very long, modern PL materials charge more rapidly with less ambient light and glow for up to 12 hours (Strontium Aluminate ). Our products are tested for durability and deliver maintenance free, fail-safe illumination. 

Photoluminescent materials charge using energy from UV wavelength light. Direct sunlight is best. Close seconds are incandescent, halogen, florescent and LED's. Usually an hour is sufficient to fully charge most of our products.

i-Luminate has assembled the World's best manufacturers of Photoluminescent egress markings and raw materials. We deliver complete cost-effective solutions for every type of project. From a 64-story mixed-use tower in Boston to a single residential staircase. We want to help solve your egress safety issues, small or large.

Photoluminescent markings can be used anywhere people are moving within any type of  built environment. Turn under-lit docks and gangways into easily navigable pathways in any marine environment. 

 Photoluminescent (PL) exit path markings are a relatively new type of Life Safety Improvement for a wide variety of  applications including Commercial and Government Buildings, as well as Residential and Marine applications.
