When a fire occurs on board, the most serious consequence is often the spread of smoke. Smoke significantly reduces visibility and can hinder safe evacuation. Low-location lighting (LLL) systems are designed to maintain visible escape routes by guiding passengers along evacuation paths close to the deck—below the smoke layer.
According to SOLAS 2014, Regulation 3.2.5.1:
In addition to the emergency lighting required by regulations II-1/42 and III/11.5, escape routes, including stairs and exits, shall be marked with lighting or photoluminescent strips located not more than 300 mm above the deck.
This regulation applies to all passenger ships carrying more than 36 passengers.
At Prolink, we design guidance systems that meet all SOLAS requirements for safe evacuation, while also taking aesthetic considerations into account. Our solutions are adapted to suit a variety of surfaces and vessel types, ensuring both safety and seamless integration into the ship’s interior.
