Third generation Photoluminescent paint now available: Re-Light (read more)
Metal Safe Sign's third generation high-quality photoluminescent paint is now available for our customers. This is a new development based on the high performance MSS-strontium aluminate pigments and a new, high tech epoxy binder. The binder system contains no solvents or allergenic components and has very good adhesion to most common building materials. Ideal for LLL in crew quarters, engine rooms, public buildings, tunnels and other enclosed areas. The EG 75 will glow with a strength of 600 millicandela/m2 after 10 minutes when fully charged with 1000 Lux and be visible in a dark room for more than 100 hours if applied in thicker layers (>1 kg/m2 ) (Read more)

Photoluminescent emergency and guidance signs (read more)
We offer a wide range of photoluminescent (PL)-signs. All of our signs are produced on 0,68 mm white-enameled recycled aluminum, but may on demand be produced on PVC. All symbols on our signs are made according to ISO, NS and IMO-regulations (customization of signs is possible). Our signs provide escapees and others long and strong afterglow-effects making wayfinding in the dark easy. (Read more)

Water penetration in photoluminescent products (read more)
Metal Safe Sign has developed a new pigment that prevents water penetration (in e.g. humid and damp areas like tunnels etc), thus avoiding de-lamination of PL-signs & LLL-products often found in most of the available photoluminescent signs, paints etc on the market. Metal Safe Sign uses these pigments in our brand new “Safety Way Guidance System” products, produced with our “Encapsulated, Strontium Aluminate, Phosphorescent Pigments.” The pigment has our highest afterglow properties!

How to compare test-results from suppliers of photoluminescent products
Metal Safe Sign makes products for real-life applications, not for laboratory tests. We therefore test our products in normal lighting conditions (e.g. 25 lux) in order to make sure our products still pass the necessary requirements for saving lives. Ask other suppliers of the same and ask for their measurements at normal light instead of 1000 lux which is done in the DIN 67510 measurements (the 1000 lux measurements are usually the test-results one receives). 

Our test-results
Control in accordance with ISO 15370:2001 Annex A. Illumination for 24 hours 25 lux (real-life light). Complete darkness and reading after 10 and 60 minutes. Please note: Only 25 lux charging light, and not 1000 lux (DIN 67510) like so many other companies' use! MSS makes products for real-life applications - not laboratory tests.

Test according to DIN 67510:1992. The following measuring results were achieved:

All our products have passed Fire Test Procedure Code - 2 and 5 necessary for wall and bulkhead mounting in escape routes in enclosed areas. When comparing measuring and test results from other suppliers, ALWAYS ask them what their tests are based on! Test results should reflect the actual conditions where the products are to be used, and not optimal laboratory conditions (contact us for more information). (You will find more test results here).
