HIGHLY EFFECTIVE NEW SAFETY SIGNAGE TECHNOLOGYPhotoluminescent (glow in the dark) material is one of the most important recent

innovations in the life safety industry. Photoluminescent signs and way finding products

are a low cost, easy to maintain and highly effective part of modern life-safety plans in

buildings of all types, airplanes, trains and on passenger ships,

Stable and non-toxic, with low maintenance and a long service-life, ARA Safety’s

photoluminescent products are safe, effective and economical.

PROVEN APPLICATION Lunaplast™ introduced photoluminescent signage to the world in 1996. Since then,

photoluminescence has become a requirement for safety signage in passenger ships,

aircraft and tall buildings across North America.

Many building codes now mandate the use of photoluminescent signage. In New

York City, Local Law 26 requires that photoluminescent signage be provided on egress

routes and in many other locations where information must be displayed clearly

when electrical power fails. Lunaplast™ provides the highest quality photoluminescent

signage in the industry.

Current Lunaplast™ photoluminescent installations include:

The Pentagon, wedges 2-5

Old Executive Office building

International Monetary Fund building

International Space Station (NASA)

Various US Army, Navy and Coast Guard units

Los Alamos National Library

Save livesIn the face of recent emergencies, researchers have learned that people need continuous information throughout their egress route. The WTC Commission determined that only photoluminescent signage can provide effective guidance when all sources of electrical power (including batteries and generators) fail.

Lunaplast™ photoluminescent egress signage is always visible, even in complete darkness, providing emergency information on hazards and exit direction — and saving lives.

Reduce costsEvery public building in North America is required to mark its exit doors with illuminated exit signs. Lit with incandescent bulbs that require replacement every few months, these unreliable signs consume 30 billion kW/hours of electricity per year, at a cost of over $2.8 billion.

Replacing electric signage with Lunaplast™ photoluminescent signage ensures uninterrupted performance, low maintenance and huge energy cost savings.

TESTED AND CERTIFIED TO MEET INTERNATIONAL CODESRegulators in North America now embrace photoluminescent signs as a preferred alternative to electrical signage. Code organizations such as NFPA Life Safety Code 101, Underwriters Laboratory Inc UL924, and EPA Energy Star recognize and allow Lunaplast™ photoluminescent signage to replace electrical exit signs.

Lunaplast™ signage meets or exceeds the following national and international specifications and codes:

RS 6-1 & RS 6-1A – New York City Building Codes, 2005DIN 67510-1 – European photoluminescent specISO/CD 15370 – PL spec for passenger shipsMIL-L-3891B – US military spec (inactive)ASTM E 2072-00 – Main worldwide photoluminescent specAPTA SS-PS-004-99 – Passenger rail specJIS Z 9100 – Japanese government PL spec

LunaplastTM Coated AluminumThe strongest photoluminescent product on the market today, LunaplastTM Coated Aluminum is ideal for

use in high-traffic areas where quality and aesthetics are critical. The product undergoes a proprietary high-

heat process which binds the specially prepared photoluminescent powdercoat layer permanently to the

aluminum backing, creating an almost indestructible surface.

Our high strength rigid material offers significantly higher luminance, abrasion resistance and heat resistance

than other products in the LunaplastTM line and with any competitor product. LunaplastTM Coated Aluminum

is available with fully customizable graphics impregnated directly into the coating.

These strengths combine to make LunaplastTM Coated Aluminum the flagship photoluminescent product on

the market today. LunaplastTM Coated Aluminum is MEA approved and UV rated.
