By: Robert J. Hartl | 2010-04-02 | Interior design If you have been in a public building lately, chances are you have seen an exit sign above all exterior doors. Building codes require that certain public buildings install and maintain exit signs. A large skyscraper easily will house 300 or more exit signs, while a movie theater may need 20. The most popular style of exit signs in use today is tritium exit signs. These signs are sometimes referred to as nuclear exit signs because of their makeup. Tritium is a radioactive form of the element hydrogen. Because of their initial cost and because they are made with a radioactive substance, are nuclear exit signs worth investing in? read more

By: Robert J. Hartl | 2010-04-04 | Business For years, glow in the dark or photoluminescent materials have been used in many ways. Design, entertainment, construction and other industries have all benefited from fluorescent-charged glowing materials. In the last decade, the fire safety industry has become the next beneficiary of this power-savvy technology. Glow in the dark exit signs and other luminescent systems have begun replacing lighted exit signs and other self luminous exit signs as the industry standard. Photoluminescent materials are charged when exposed to available fluorescent lighting, with a recommended standard of 54 lux. After only brief light exposure, these zero-energy products glow visibly bright in total darkness, through smoke, haze, and other visual impediments. This technology makes the glowing products the logical choice when selecting emergency signage for exits, stairwells, and building evacuation routes. read more

In 2007 a group of 2500 scientists from over 100 countries concluded that the polar ice caps will be completely gone by 2100. A few of those scientists believe that the melting will happen even faster than that due to modern technologies facilitating the heating of the atmosphere. read more

Hartl | 2010-03-26 | Interior design Photoluminescence is a complex word that describes a rather simple phenomenon - a product's ability to produce light without the aid of commercial power sources such as electricity and batteries. In scientific terms, this phenomenon occurs when an object absorbs photons from ambient light and then re-emits the photons in darkened surroundings, creating a lighting effect that ranges from ambent to bright depending on the object's absorption ability. read more
