After the great demand for the first seminars we’ve scheduled another one, with the same content and at the same venue.

Building Codes around the world are rapidly changing to recognise photoluminescent products as they contribute to effective emergency lighting systems and are also sustainable and economical. Countries such as the USA, Canada, Japan, Australia and New Zealand have all adopted this technology into their respective Building Codes using international standards to ensure performance.

WHAT is included in the Seminar?
The seminar will focus on the use of international standards relating to photoluminescent products and how they can support the Fire Code of the Philippines RA9514 RIRR-2019.

There will be 4 main sections:
Technical Background of Photoluminescent Technology.
International Standards relating to Photoluminescent Products.
Application of Standards to RA9514 RIRR-2019.
Quality Control.

The fire code clauses covered will be:
10-2-5-11 Illumination of Means of Egress
10-2-5-12 Exit Marking
10-2-5-13 Emergency Evacuation Plans

Standby – Ecoglo is about to launch its new range of Disaster Preparedness Signs.

Originally developed for the Philippines market, these signs are designed to be used to either warn of natural hazards or direct people to safety when a natural hazard occurs. When installed outdoors they are designed to remain visible after many hours of darkness.

The hybrid Reflective/PL version uses Ecoglo’s S20 HTC plate and high quality reflective graphics to ensure visibility to both vehicles and pedestrians. This version is suitable for short run custom graphics.

The HTC version is printed and then an HTC clear coat is applied to protect the print building in long term HTC durability.

Take a look at the HTC version here:

And the full Philippines range here:

The Philippines’ largest gathering of architects is only 3 weeks away! The United Architects of the Philippines’ annual trade exhibition will being showing the latest trends and innovations in architecture and design.

Ecoglo will be demonstrating how its products can increase step edge contrast for people with impaired sight and at the same time add anti-slip properties.

Coma and see us at CONEX 2024, booth I49.
SMX Manila 18-21 April.

Ecoglo is proud to be supporting Philippines Fire Prevention Month 2024.

We are excited to announce that we have entered into a sponsorship arrangement to provide industry training and professional development in relation to the fire code.

The courses will give guidance regarding specific aspects of sections 10-2-5-11, 10-2-5-12 and 10-2-5-13 of the Fire Code of the Philippines RA9514 RIRR-2019.

There is always an ongoing need for education and professional development materials targeted at all stakeholders in the fire safety eco-system. The courses have been developed in response to frequently asked questions from facility managers, safety managers and other stakeholders in the facility management sector.

Guidance and training will help all stakeholders to adopt a consistent and dependable interpretation of the current fire code wording and thus increase fire safety in facilities throughout the Philippines.

Ecoglo is proud to announce our new partnership with the Safety Organization of the Philippines Inc.

25 years of experience working with photoluminescent egress systems and associated international standards gives Ecoglo a vast depth of knowledge in this field that will be extremely useful in helping SOPI achieve many of its Mission goals. A culture of safety can be built upon through the development of clear egress plans and programs, with ongoing education and training a key factor towards the success of our partnership.

Ecoglo’s self-charging LED exit sign replaces batteries with our highly efficient Energy Caching Panel and next generation electronics to produce a truly sustainable, durable and cost-effective unit equipment product.

To find out more come to our booth at at NFPA Las Vegas, June 19-21 or you can see a short video here:

The costs of battery replacement and their disposal continue to be issues. With emergency exit signs the batteries can now be disposed of forever!

Batteries in emergency exit signs have now been superceded by Ecoglo’s Self-charging LED Exit Sign which combines innovative electronics with ECP energy storage. This means no more battery failures and no battery disposal issues.

Come and see the next generation in exit signs at NFPA Las Vegas, June 19-21, we’re at booth #212
