LuminoKrom®, luminescent paint for pedestrian safety

Mobilité piétonne de nuit avec marquage luminescent

Photoluminescent paint for soft mobility users

 

Would you like to enhance the visibility of pedestrians on a walkway area without street lighting?

We recommend our LuminoKrom® Almond Green product. Our luminescent paint creates luminous markings at night for improved pedestrian mobility in the city.

The use of luminescent ground markings enhances the visibility ans safety of sidewalks, footpaths and crosswalkfacilities throughout the night.

LuminoKrom® markings are luminous for over 10 hours and recharge in just a few minutes, even with artificial lighting.

Making night-time travel safer

Many walkers need to get around at night: late-night exits from sports centers or community halls, journeys between an urban center and a student housing area, returns from nightlife centers (cinemas, restaurants), workers with staggered working hours....

LuminoKrom® luminescent signage makes pedestrian paths safer, especially in municipalities that switch off artificial lighting for part of the night, or in insufficiently lit areas in the city. LuminoKrom® beaconing takes over from street lighting, acting like a luminous breadcrumb trail for pedestrians.

ALERTING
GUIDING

Walkers are ALERTED of crashes zones or obstacles such as dock or waterway edges, presence of street furniture, presence of infrastructure on roads...

Users are GUIDED at night and their vigilance is reinforced by a better distinction of the space: curb, sidewalk, dedicated path, crosswalk.

Types of markings to improve safety and experience for walkers

Guidance and safety in pedestrian areas

Arrow markings

LuminoKrom® can be used to create directional markings like arrow or line visible in the dark on sidewalks and pedestrian walkways, especially in high-traffic areas or complex environments such as railway stations or shopping malls.

Pedestrian zone delineation

In areas shared with other road users (drivers or soft mobility users), such as low-speed zones, LuminoKrom® luminescent paint can clearly delineate roads reserved for pedestrians, reducing conflicts with cyclists, scooters or other vehicles.

Rural and suburban areas

In villages or suburban areas where lighting may be intermittent or absent, LuminoKrom® luminescent paint can be used as a sustainable alternative to mark footpath, raised crossing or danger zone, providing continuous visibility for pedestrians.

Footpaths in parks

LuminoKrom® is ideal for marking footpaths in parks or natural areas where artificial lighting is limited to preserve nocturnal wildlife. Thanks to luminous signage, jogging enthusiasts can get around  without the need for constant artificial lighting.

Tourist trails

On footpaths with no lighting or few luminosity, LuminoKrom® luminous technology can be used as a guide to follow, to help orientate walkers at dusk, particularly in areas with high footfall, such as the Camino de Compostela. Night-time mobility will be encouraged.

Crosswalks

LuminoKrom® can be applied to a crosswalk (on private and industrial sites) to make them visible at night or in low-light conditions. Photoluminescent strips on crosswalk enable drivers or users of other vehicles to see the crossing area clearly, even in the dark, helping to reduce crashes and accidents.

Transition zones and dangerous crossings

In territorial planning where pedestrians have to walk crossing bridges, footbridges or other dangerous infrastructures by night, LuminoKrom® can be used to proactively demarcate and signal these areas, increasing pedestrians' vigilance on the way.

Stairs and ramps

To prevent falls and accidents, LuminoKrom® can be applied to the edges of stair treads and ramps in industrial and public areas, making them more visible in low-light conditions. When the environment in question is plunged into darkness, our beacons highlight areas and obstacles likely to be dangerous for users. The luminescence acts as a warning to pedestrians, naturally heightening their vigilance.

Maritime area, quay, port, river

Infrastructure located near water must comply with strict standards, and LuminoKrom® can help meet these requirements by providing clear, visible signage, reducing crashes for users of port or waterfront facilities. Facilities close to the water, such as the edges of docks, rivers, harbors or boat ramps, can be marked with LuminoKrom to indicate areas at risk or potential obstacles, even in low light or bad weather.

Switching off lighting
Saving energy  and respecting the environment

LuminoKrom®  is particularly relevant in the context of lighting extinction on roads, a practice increasingly adopted by municipalities to reduce energy consumption, limit light pollution and preserve the night-time environment.

Alternative to constant lighting

Using LuminoKrom®, municipalities can
reduce or switch off lighting in certain areas
of the city. This saves energy and
reduces the carbon footprint.

Street furniture signage

Bollards and posts, which are often used to demarcate pedestrian areas or prevent parking, can be coated with LuminoKrom® to make them visible in the dark.

Illuminated curbs and sidewalks

In areas where streetlights are switched off at night, kerbs can be marked with LuminoKrom®. This helps walkers stay on the correct path, avoiding getting too close to traffic areas.

Icone environnement

Preserving the nocturnal environment

In areas where the black grid is respected to protect nocturnal biodiversity, LuminoKrom offers a solution for marking paths and passages without introducing light pollution, thus respecting the darkness required by local wildlife.

Accessibility of public spaces for people with disabilities

Picto handicap

LuminoKrom®, as a photoluminescent paint technology, offers a number of significant advantages for making access safer for people with disabilities. It is an invaluable asset for local authorities and communities in complying with accessibility standards and regulations, which often require floor markings to be clearly visible and distinct both day and night.

 

  • Improved night-time visibility: For the visually impaired or those with reduced vision, LuminoKrom® helps to better distinguish the contours and trajectories of paths, ramps or stairs, especially in low-light conditions. The paint "glows in the dark", allowing markings to be seen clearly and crisply, reducing the danger of falls or accidents.
  • Ramp markings: LuminoKrom® can be applied to wheelchair ramps, allowing better visibility of accessible paths, especially in low-light conditions or at night. This reduces the risk of falls or accidental path deviations.
  • Danger zone marking: Potentially dangerous areas for wheelchair users, such as stairs, kerbs, or areas with steep slopes, can be marked with photoluminescent paint to clearly indicate the danger of wheelchair falls, especially in the dark..
  • Facilitating orientation: For people with cognitive or sensory impairments, LuminoKrom®'s ability to maintain continuous visibility helps them to find their way around in space. This is particularly useful in environments where lighting may be insufficient, or in the event of a power cut. Inside buildings, LuminoKrom® can be applied to floors or walls to indicate the most suitable paths for wheelchair users, particularly in emergency situations where rapid evacuation is required.

Benefits for pedestrian facilities

LuminoKrom® offers innovative possibilities for transforming pedestrian infrastructures into dynamic, interactive and safe places in the streets. By combining safety and aesthetics, LuminoKrom® animated markings can make the pedestrian experience more engaging.

These creative applications can be particularly effective in revitalizing public spaces, promoting events and encouraging social interaction in urban settings.

Animation and creative marking

Enhanced pedestrian experience
  • Aesthetic and educational markings: LuminoKrom® can be used to create aesthetic or educational markings on the sidewalk, such as light patterns or directional signs for nocturnal tourist or educational streets. This can make night-time walks more enjoyable and informative.
  • Themed routes: Luminescent signage can also be designed to tell a story, making practice of walk more engaging and informative.
  • Artistic expressions: Artists can use LuminoKrom® to create luminous works on the sidewalk or pedestrian walkway. These works can change appearance as daylight fades, offering a new artistic dimension to public space at night.
