GIDZ-1, 1" x 60' Hazard Glow in the Dark Safety-Grip
Glow in the dark anti slip tape is a popular material. To combine two very popular products; glow in the dark tape with anti skid tape. Glow in the dark slip tape is produced in three main color options, either plain color, hazard chevrons or Glow Stripe (a 2” black roll with a central stripe of photoluminescent egress tape). In a daytime or lights on scenario the material is a mild green shade, in lights out they emit a bright white glow. The upper resin coating is impregnated with a photoluminescent powder, which contains non-radioactive photons, and these photons absorb energy from either natural or artificial light sources. When lighting diminishes, the powder releases the stored energy as white light. This light helps to safely illuminate many areas:
Stairwells
Areas that can be tricky to navigate in low light or lights out situations, applying glow in the dark safety tape can help illuminate the area, allowing you to quickly, calmly and safely, navigate them in time of need. Whole steps and platforms, if applicable can be highlighted.
Stair Nosings
Stair nosings can be a common place for causes of slips, mis-steps being the most obvious accidents. Applying glow in the dark anti slip tape to the stair nosing can create a hi-viz, non slip edge that will ensure heightened safety when ascending or descending steps.
Access Areas
Highlighting access points is important in not only ensuring they are kept clear, but so they can be easily found during times of emergency. Using a combination of glow in the dark safety tape, can ensure that it remains visible and safe during lights out or low light situations.
Ledges
Reducing risk of falls from ledges is vital, thus adding a hi-viz, anti slip product such as glow in the dark anti slip tape will ensure that slips and mis-steps are less likely to occur.
