Photoluminescent Guidance for Luminous Egress Path Markings
The Ecoglo® G3001 Photoluminescent Guidance Strip provides excellent visibility and helps enhance egress speed in all light conditions. It is designed for areas required by code to have luminous path markings.
The G3001 is 0.6 inches wide and is manufactured using Ecoglo’s patented photoluminescent process. It is UL 1994 and ULC 572 Listed and meets applicable building, fire and life-safety standards identified in the manufacturer’s data sheet.
The strip features a rigid aluminum base that spreads applied loads over a greater area of installation adhesive. When installed using a premium polyurethane adhesive or adhesive/sealant, it provides a durable, moisture-resistant installation that works well on both smooth and textured surfaces.
Unique ridges protect the photoluminescent material from most abrasive wear. These ridges also provide slip resistance while allowing the product to be easily cleaned.
Designed for indoor and outdoor use, the G3001 has been tested under accelerated UV and weathering exposure and has demonstrated high resistance to the effects of UV exposure and weathering. According to the manufacturer, performance loss is less than can be detected by the human eye after 6,000 hours of UV exposure, which is described as similar to approximately 30 years of outdoor exposure.
