The priority in an emergency situation, requiring evacuation, is to enable occupants
to leave the building quickly and safely. It is therefore important that escape
routes and any obstacles or changes in level along these routes are highlighted.
This section offers a range of photoluminescent products to enable a quick and
safe escape when the power fails.
Jalite rigid plastic fire exit signs assist in the identification of the escape route, helping to lead people to their nearest fire exit. A fire exit route is an additional route to the way occupants would normally enter or leave the building.
Rigid plastic for wall mounting
Photoluminescent (glow-in-the dark)
Adheres tp BS5499-1:2002
Exceptional high brightness within the first few minutes
Improved material technology - improved aging and weathering performance
Conspicuous signs that can be clearly seen and read in total darkness
JALITE AAA material stays brighter for longer than P.S.P.A. Class A materials: expect 3-4 times the luminance performance
These fire exit signs are available in sizes J (200x450mm), K (150x400mm) and T (120x340mm). The table below shows the size, viewing distance and suggested siting of all three sign sizes. (all prices include VAT)
Under conditions of total power failure JALITE Photoline Stair-nosing will immediately
illuminate (glow-in-the dark) stairs to help the evacuee on the way out of a building.
Stair-nosing has been designed to complement existing emergency systems. Local
or emergency power failure on stairways could be a fatal hazard for evacuees.
Under conditions of total power failure, JALITE Photoline Stair-nosing will immediately
illuminate the edges of steps to help the evacuee to orientate, locate stair edges
and risers, and assist in the safe evacuation of the premises.
Stair-nosing requires no electrical connection, is simple to install and requires
no special maintenance other than that which you would normally carry out on any
similar product. Only normal illumination, daylight, fluorescent or standard
tungsten filament required to activate its performance.
Each pack of stair-nosing contains 15 x 1.375m lengths
Suitable for 2-3.5mm gauge floor coverings
Available straight-back or raked-back stairnosing
JALITE AAA material stays brighter for longer than P.S.P.A. Class A materials

Photoluminescent tapes provide a cost-effective way of identifying obstacles,
dangerous locations and traffic routes. Jalite tapes can be seen in darkness
(glow-in-the dark) and provide visible escape route illumination.
There are three tape designs available:
Plain vinyl tape
Hi-light skirting/hand rail, general illumination of stairway and escape route
Striped vinyl tape
Green: safe condition, zone marking, door and emergency escape identification
Red: hi-light fire fighting equipment and obstacle marking
Black: danger zone marking, hi-light unsafe exits and hazard identification
Arrowed vinyl tape
Hi-light directional route marking, skirting/hand rail and use for way-finding
identification
Available with man only, man and 'exit' text or man and 'fire exit' text
Each roll comes plain, with transparent stick-on left and right direction signs
All are available with a width of 40mm or 80mm
Adheres to BS5499-1:2002
All are available in 10m lengths, the plain and striped versions are also available
in 5m lengths
