American PERMALIGHT® is a leading manufacturer of building-code compliant photoluminescent safety products since 1988.
In 1994, following the first terrorist bomb attack in the World Trade Center NYC basement parking garage, the Port Authority of New York and New Jersey installed PERMALIGHT® photoluminescent markings on the steps, landings, and handrail bars of their emergency staircases. During the 9/11 World Trade Center New York City evacuation, 33% of survivors in WTC Tower I and 17% of survivors in WTC Tower II were aided by the PERMALIGHT® photoluminescent markings in the emergency exit stairwell (https://www.nist.gov/world-trade-center-investigation).
Based on the NIST findings, the New York City Department of Buildings developed a range of improvements, enforced by Local Law 26 of 2004, which included photoluminescent exit path markings. PERMALIGHT® offers the matching MEA-certified product line.
Since then, both NFPA (National Fire Protection Association) and ICC (International Code Council) have added photoluminescent egress path markings to their domestic codes.
Today, American PERMALIGHT® offers an extensive range of photoluminescent UL1994-listed egress path markings, non-electrical and non-radioactive UL924-listed exit signs, and high-performance glow in the dark safety products for APTA (railcar), IMO (maritime), and other compliance requirements. American PERMALIGHT® photoluminescent signs and luminous egress path markings have helped people find their way out of darkened environments such as buildings, vehicle tunnels, trains, ships, mines, and other spaces.
American PERMALIGHT® debuted Professional Offerings & Services in 2020, which led to the PERMALIGHT® Certified Partner Program in 2021.
