Our glow-in-the-dark products use an embedded inorganic photoluminescent pigment that creates a green/yellow glow when active. The pigment is non-toxic, non-radioactive, and can be recharged repeatedly during the life of the product. HiGlo-Traction Covers are an effective safety solution for both outdoor and indoor applications, with “Glow-in-the-Dark” visibility for many hours after the light source has been removed. The photoluminescent pigment is fully recharged after 5 minutes of exposure to sunlight, 8 minutes at dusk, or 10 minutes in fluorescent light. As expected, the degree of brightness depends on the strength and nature of the light source. The higher the UV output, the brighter the illumination. Sodium vapor and red light yield no activation.

Two-Tone Color Configurations

Safeguard colors can be combined to create a two-tone configurations.

Contrasting color:

• on the nosing and vertical lip of a Step Cover, calls attention to the leading edge of a stair.
• on the perimeter of a Walkway Cover designates a change in surface texture and signifies a safe walk zone.
• can also be configured on Ladder Rung Covers and is standard on all Pipe and Cable Covers.

Descriptive Marking

Reinforce Your Corporate Safety Message and PPE Requirement

Overhead safety warnings and signage can actually create a slip, trip and fall situation when the person fails to look down while walking. Worse yet, in the event of a fire or emergency, smoke and darkness often conceal overhead signage and directional guidance.

The image or message is embedded into the cover, not just printed on the surface, so it will last for the life of the product and not wear off.

Critical Safety Message

Commonly used phrases include:

• Use Handrail
• Use Trailing Hand Technique
• Danger Zone
• Watch Your Head

Personal Protective Equipment (PPE) Safety Symbol

Incorporating PPE Safety Symbols that are visible at floor level greatly increases the exposure of important safety warnings and messages. As workers and pedestrians look down while walking on hazardous areas or steps, these symbols act as a simple reminder to act and think safely. Combine with a glow-in-the-dark background for visibility after dark, during power outages, and emergency evacuations.
