Peru is a country highly prone to earthquakes, which makes safety standards in public transportation systems such as subways, bus terminals, and long-distance stations extremely strict. In emergencies like power outages or fires, traditional signs often fail, while photoluminescent vinyl becomes the ideal solution thanks to its ability to work without electricity, charge quickly, and glow continuously.
This glow-in-the-dark vinyl only requires 5–10 minutes of exposure to natural or artificial light to emit a visible glow for 2–12 hours in darkness, providing passengers with clear evacuation guidance. In recent years, Peruvian transportation authorities have strengthened safety regulations, requiring stations, corridors, stairways, and emergency exits to be equipped with standard-compliant photoluminescent signage. This regulatory push has significantly increased the adoption of glow-in-the-dark tapes in public transit.
Beyond subways and buses, Peru’s airports, hospitals, and schools are also widely applying photoluminescent markings on stair railings, exit frames, and pathway floors. These markings not only improve evacuation efficiency in emergencies but also enhance public confidence in safety. With rapid urbanization and rising safety awareness, the demand for photoluminescent vinyl in Peru is expected to continue growing.
