Why are Safety Signs System products important?

Many organizations, on land and at sea, invest in safety measures such as fire hoses, alarm systems, evacuation plans, lifeboats, and many other safety equipment. These investments are often significant. But what value do they hold if passengers or visitors cannot locate them during an emergency?

Implementing a Safety Sign System involves more than placing a few signs here and there. A well-designed system should incorporate the following elements:

• Safety Instructions to explain Low Location Lighting (LLL) and ensure clear orientation for primary and secondary Escape Routes.
• Low Location Lighting (LLL) to provide uninterrupted illuminated guidance through all escape routes, to Assembly and Embarkation Stations or Emergency Exits.
• Electrical (LED) Escape Ceiling Signs for enhanced visibility.
• Safety Signs in the form of Escape Route Signs to clearly guide passengers along primary and secondary escape routes to their assembly stations.

A comprehensive Safety Sign System ensures that all Safety measures and Safety Equipment can be found, and are accessible when it matters most.
