Stairways

Ensuring stairways and their steps are completely visible is not always an easy task, but by using glow in the dark hazard marking tape, you can completely highlight the stairway and every step to ensure no mis-steps.

Light Switches

Finding light switches in the dark can be very troublesome for many. Applying glow in the dark marking tape on or around light switches removes the difficulty associated with finding light switches in a dark room.

Tape Thickness

Photoluminescent Marking Tape features a total applied thickness of approximately 0.031 inches, delivering a durable yet flexible profile designed for high-visibility egress and safety applications. Its resilient PVC construction offers enough rigidity for long-term wear resistance while still conforming smoothly to floors, walls, and handrails. This balanced thickness ensures a bright, dependable glow layer without excess bulk, allowing the tape to sit low against the surface while providing clear, continuous guidance in both illuminated and low-light environments.
