The Real American Permalight Power

What sets us apart
Here’s some secrets behind why we’re still an industry authority after almost 40 years.

Trusted Since 1988

We were here first, and we’re not going anywhere. 38 years and counting, but each day is day one in terms of our mission of making the world a safer place.

Proven Life-Saving Impact

Our competitors have lab tested reliability – we have real world reliability. Our products were proven to have saved lives during the tragic events of 9/11, and resulted in the legal requirement of photoluminescence in the building code of 2009.

Comprehensive Safety Solutions

From proposal to paycheck, American Permalight has your back. Bidding help, code questions, cost saving alternatives, and more. Safety shouldn’t break the bank.

Code Compliance Expertise

We lobbied for it, and once we got it, we wrote it. Since it’s been written, we now chair on numerous committees to oversee the future of code development. It’s in our blood, and we’re here to interpret it for you.

Commitment to Education

Safety shouldn’t be complicated. Whether it’s bidding, installing, or surviving an inspection, we’re here to flatten the curve. Anyone who wants to make the world a safer place is a friend of ours.

Customer-Centric Approach

Safety should be easy, and so should business. We work around the clock to give you the smoothest experience possible. Your happy customers make you our happy customer. If you grow, we grow.
