LuminoKrom®, outdoor industrial safety
Outdoor pedestrian walkways
Pedestrian walkways ensure the safe movement of personnel between different buildings, technical areas, and parking lots, some or all of which may be unlit, making travel at night potentially hazardous. Luminokrom® provides long-lasting marking and highlighting of these routes, indicating the edges of paths, potential obstacles, and points requiring caution. Thanks to its passive visibility, it helps reduce the risk of falls, disorientation, or collisions, while facilitating access to strategic points on the site.
Pedestrian crossings
Outdoor pedestrian crossings are areas where pedestrians and vehicles, including trucks, forklifts, utility vehicles, and maintenance vehicles, intersect. These areas are particularly prone to accidents when they are not properly lit. Luminokrom® makes pedestrian crossings visible at night thanks to durable photoluminescent markings. These markings help improve coexistence between pedestrians and vehicles, increase driver awareness, and improve traffic flow on site.
Night patrol routes
During night patrols, security guards often have to walk through isolated, unlit, or hazardous areas. The use of luminescent products improves visibility by creating light markers along paths and traffic routes, identifying critical areas and sensitive equipment, and creating visible landmarks for checkpoints and restricted access areas. This facilitates navigation, keeps personnel safe, and reduces the risk of accidents at night.
Outdoor parking lots
Luminokrom® allows parking spaces to be visually structured by permanently marking parking spaces, traffic lanes, pedestrian areas, and exit routes. This photoluminescent marking remains visible in total darkness, ensuring clear guidance for drivers and safe pedestrian traffic, even in the event of a power failure or poor weather conditions. Operators and visitors can easily identify access areas, pedestrian walkways, curbs, and potential obstacles, reducing the risk of collisions, falls, or mishaps.
Unloading docks
Areas where trucks, forklifts, or heavy machinery operate present increased risks, especially at night. Reversing trucks on loading docks is one of the most dangerous maneuvers due to the driver's limited visibility (blind spot) and proximity to workers and other equipment, particularly in low light conditions or at night. To prevent trucks from hitting the dock edges when reversing, these edges can be marked with LuminoKrom®. This allows drivers to better see the dock boundaries, even in low light conditions.
Outdoor stairs and railings
LuminoKrom® is a passive energy luminescent solution designed to increase nighttime visibility in order to reduce the risk of falls and accidents on stairs, ramps, and walkways. Outdoor stairs and ramps can be dangerous, especially at night or in bad weather. LuminoKrom can be used to mark steps and ramps, highlight edges and slippery surfaces, and guide operators and visitors as they move around the site.
Industrial walkways
Industrial walkways, often used as transit areas between buildings or facilities, can also benefit from luminescent markings. Luminokrom® markings ensure continuous, visible marking of traffic areas, providing safe guidance for personnel during night rounds or emergency response operations. Its passive technology also guarantees optimal safety even in ATEX or chemical environments, with no risk of sparks.
Bicycle paths on the sites
Soft mobility is gradually developing at many industrial sites. Cycle paths and shared lanes for bicycles, scooters, and other light vehicles are becoming a real means of transport for employees, maintenance workers, and visitors. However, these outdoor routes are often poorly lit, exposed to heavy traffic, and subject to visibility constraints.
Marking of bicycle lanes
Cycle paths on industrial sites must ensure clear separation between different traffic flows: pedestrians, light vehicles, and motorized vehicles. Thanks to LuminoKrom®, it is possible to permanently mark out cycle paths and their intersections with other traffic lanes. The luminescent markings provide continuous visual guidance, facilitating safe travel even at night.
Intersections and hazardous areas
Intersections between bike paths and heavy vehicle traffic lanes are critical points. LuminoKrom® markings effectively highlight these intersections, alerting drivers and making cyclists more visible. The photoluminescent brightness attracts attention and promotes vigilance, reducing the risk of collisions or emergency braking in poorly lit areas.
Outdoor industrial facilities
For outdoor industrial facilities such as refineries and power plants, LuminoKrom® glow floor markings can be used to mark pedestrian and bicycle paths, crosswalks, and roads for vehicles and/or trucks, ensuring continuous safety even at night or in low-light conditions.
Shopping malls & airport
Visibility is a major safety issue in parking lots, especially when artificial lighting is reduced or faulty. LuminoKrom® paint can be used to clearly mark parking spaces, guide drivers with luminous directional arrows, and secure pedestrian walkways and exit areas.
Warehouses and logistics
In distribution centers (warehouses and logistics companies), where operations often continue 24 hours a day, LuminoKrom® floor markings are a plus for securing internal traffic routes, storage warehouses, and loading areas.
Port facilities
In ports and industrial facilities, where truck maneuvers are frequent and critical, often in poorly lit conditions, the deployment of LuminoKrom® markings can help visualize traffic lanes for vehicles and prevent accidents.
