More than a great kid's toy, glow-in-the-dark labels and decals (read luminescent or reflective) are a key part of any modern environment.
From kits labelled for emergency services such as firefighter helmets to emergency exit labels on buses and trains, boats, trailers and trucks. These labels can glow for 20 to 40 minutes depending on the substance used and the strength of the light being used. The uses for glow-in-the-dark and reflective labels go way beyond safety only. The uses are only limited by your imagination.
For instance, you have important information inside of an enclosed vessel. Shine a torch on it and the label pops to life. Now all the information comes to you, and you do not have to enter the container. Ultimately saving time, and money and importantly reducing risk to yourself and others.
In a situation where the lights have gone out and you need to read some instructions? Luminescent labels and decals can glow in the dark for 20 – 40 minutes, so you can read the text or image you need once power is lost.
As an example, you’re an electrician in the field during a blackout. You came along to a transformer at the top of the pole, but how do you know what sort of transformer it is? Do you need to get in a cherry picker and ride up to see it? No. When you are using reflective labels on the transformer all the electrician must do is shine a light onto the label and it starts to glow, allowing the label to be read easily and quickly.
What if the branding or instructional items on your trucks, tanks or trailers could glow in the dark? How much better would branding work to promote your business, your brand and your reputation? Or indeed how much improved would the safety of your team be in an emergency?
Glow-in-the-dark and reflective labels are not for everyone in every situation though for specific situations, where it can increase safety, save time and increase viability it is a tremendous option to consider.
