We’re also seeing a demand for more durable exit signs from companies that generate their revenue from maintenance (ie the more exit signs fail the more revenue they generate).

Great article and a ‘no brainer’ in terms of making considerable savings to achieve a better environmental outcome. With the added benefit of savings being redirected into frontline healthcare.
