  5. About Our Products • Lumonall (formally Prolink) is internationally recognized as market leader in PhotoLuminescent Materials (PLM) • Materials are non-toxic, non-radioactive, fire resistant and natural • This product absorbs and retains any ambient light, and glows for hours after light is removed • Lumonall has installed the majority of cruise ships in the European market with both Exit, Safety Signs and SWGS (Safety Way Guidance Systems) Willis ~ the name you have trusted since 1967 www.4willis.com

  6. Safety Way Guidance Systems (SWGS) • SWGS are PhotoLuminescent markings placed in egress • paths to aide ones ability to exit a building in case of any • emergency (blackouts/brownouts, fire,smoke ect). • As PLM is not dependent on an external power • source, it will always work! • Through the consistent and uniform international application of common SWGS design principles, persons in all countries will be better able to recognize and • follow the directional information provided by such systems, • limiting possible confusion or any behavior which may • hamper safe evacuation from occupied areas. • Willis ~ the name you have trusted since 1967 • www.4willis.com

  7. Safety Way Guidance Systems (SWGS) • As an additional benefit, a standardized SWGS will assist fire fighters and other rescue teams to evacuate occupied areas during emergency situations • In order to communicate SWGS information efficiently across language barriers, graphical symbols are incorporated conforming • to ISO standards.

  20. Q. & A. • Q. Why use PLM Exit Signs? • Safety, Energy Conservation, Green, Financial Savings • Q. Are these Exit Signs allowed to be used? • YES, our Exit Signs are compliant with all North American building codes. • Q. How much money can be saved by using these Exit Signs? • Dependant upon number of signs… See Scenario’s. and the Willis Classroom for more details Willis ~ the name you have trusted since 1967 www.4willis.com

  21. Q. & A. • Q. We looked at this technology years ago, are these signs toxic? • The Exit Signs and the entire product line is 100% NON-TOXIC. • Q. What about Installation • The Exit Signs are easy to install, whether in a new building or retrofit scenario. The beauty of new construction, is that you do not require wiring ,conduit or independent breakers to the location of Exit Signs. • Q. What are the lighting requirements?? • 54 lux (5 foot candles) of ambient light is required on the face of the Exit Sign while the building is occupied Willis ~ the name you have trusted since 1967 www.4willis.com

  22. Q. & A. • Q. What about our current Emergency Back Up Lights? • Keep these in place, as they add to your Safety. • however the Exit Signs will glow in the event of a fire or blackout and are not dependent on a power source. • Q. What are Low Level Exit Signs? • As building and fire codes continue to improve new legislation is on the table to have low level signage (LLS) mandatory in buildings, the reasoning behind this is smoke rises and could obscure the traditional signage. Having the additional LLS will only improve the means of egress. Willis ~ the name you have trusted since 1967 www.4willis.com

  23. Q. & A. • Q. Are these materials the same as the “glow in the dark” we’ve seen in the past? • No! Past materials were zinc sulphide and in some cases were toxic and even radioactive with a very short “glow” duration. Our proprietary formula can glow for hours upon hours. • Q. Are their disposal issue with these signs? • No..PLM Exit Signs are the only technology where disposal is not a concern. Other Exit Signs have electronic components or compact fluorescent bulbs (containing mercury).
