Ig 3 Safe Light Radium Paint

Radium Paint for Lane Marking – Power, Chemical & Textile Plants

Radium Paint is a photoluminescent safety coating used for lane marking in power plants, chemical plants, textile units, and other industrial facilities. During emergencies like fire, flooding, or earthquake, when power failure causes blackout, the glowing lanes guide safe evacuation.
