Fire Action Highly Photoluminescent Notice Signs
Highly Photoluminescent Fire Action Notice Signs display emergency evacuation instructions using glow-in-the-dark Class C material so procedures remain visible during power failure. The ISO 7010 compliant sign explains what occupants must do when discovering a fire or hearing the alarm in workplaces and public buildings.
Where Fire Action Notice Signs Should Be Installed
