Roof safety isn’t just a concern during installation or maintenance—it’s a 24/7 responsibility, especially in commercial or high-traffic buildings where rooftop access is frequent. Roofing shingles with built-in photoluminescent (glow-in-the-dark) safety markers are an innovative solution designed to improve nighttime visibility, emergency exit guidance, and overall roof safety. At Scaffs India, we believe roofing systems should contribute to both aesthetic appeal and proactive safety, and photoluminescent shingles are the next step forward.
What Are Photoluminescent Roofing Shingles?
These are shingles embedded with:
Photoluminescent Pigments or Strips: Absorb daylight and emit a soft glow in low-light conditions.
Integrated Safety Markers: Lines, arrows, or perimeter markers designed to guide rooftop movement safely at night.
Weather-Resistant Coatings: Ensuring the luminescent effect endures UV exposure, rain, and dust accumulation.
Key Benefits of Photoluminescent Safety Shingles
Improved Nighttime Safety: Reduces trip and fall hazards for personnel accessing rooftops during low-light conditions.
Emergency Egress Path Visibility: Assists in identifying safe exit routes in case of power outages or emergencies.
Maintenance-Free Safety Solution: Unlike electric lighting, these markers require no power source or wiring.
Enhances Roof Aesthetics: Adds a functional design element without compromising the overall roof appearance.
Complies with Modern Safety Standards: Aligns with green building codes and fire safety guidelines that mandate clear rooftop exit pathways.
