Architects and Developers

Those developing new facilities can save even more. Greener buildings can be achieved by placing light fixtures where they are needed to ensure the 5 foot candles of light is present where photoluminescent exit signs will be installed.

By choosing photoluminescent exit signs, developers can eliminate the infrastructure and cost associated with electric exit signs including:

• Wiring and conduit
• Junction boxes
• Circuit breakers

• Labor costs - not only is less labor involved, the work does not need to be done by an electrical contractor
