Arcachon, a first LuminoKrom® photoluminescent marking
LuminoKrom® photoluminescent paint registered in Arcachon
In July 2022, the town of Arcachon undertook the construction of the Pereire cycle path, extending the route from the Bar du Soleil to the Arbousiers parking lot.
To enhance safety for cyclists and pedestrians travelling at night, the town council has opted to apply LuminoKrom® photoluminescent paint.
The work was carried out by Aximum, a company specializing in road signage solutions. This innovative marking is designed to provide effective light guidance, particularly in areas without street lighting, thus improving visibility and user safety.
The benefits of LuminoKrom®: an environmentally-friendly, high-performance solution
LuminoKrom® photoluminescent paint charges with natural or artificial light during the day and restores it at night, offering visibility for up to 10 hours in the dark without electricity consumption or CO₂ emissions. This innovative technology improves user safety by providing luminous guidance in unlit areas, while preserving the environment by reducing light pollution. What's more, it's quick and easy to apply, comparable to conventional road paint, making it an economical and sustainable solution for local authorities wishing to secure their infrastructures responsibly.
