LuminoKrom® photoluminescent paint on a greenway – Pessac in France
So, our LuminoKrom® paint took over. Its unbeatable efficiency and certified luminescence for over 10 hours allow us to support cyclists in these dark areas. It’s important to reassure cyclists and accompany them on these less-traveled stretches of road. Cycling must be pleasant, and the experience must be relaxing and comforting.
“The path goes through the forest and is very dark at night. Until now, I’ve avoided taking it in winter, on my way back from work. Since the piste has been painted with LuminoKrom®, I use it much more often, and I feel reassured. It’s incredible to see this strip lighting up in the middle of the night”.

Lighted markers to encourage night-time cycling
By improving cyclists’ routes and reassuring them, some of these paths will be used again. The use of illuminated markers reassures cyclists in terms of both practicability and safety.
Night-time riding, particularly in isolated areas, will be encouraged. Cyclists will be able to reclaim areas dedicated to soft mobility that had been set aside for lack of visibility. Rather than travelling on the road, where the risk of accidents is higher, cyclists will be able to navigate peacefully on a perfectly safe territory.
