Leading the way

GuideU 

Safety in line with design

Designed for very easy installation, GuideU is the next generation of non-electrical floor path marking systems. GuideU consists of photoluminescent lighting strips on the cabin floor to guide passengers to the exits in the event of an emergency involving a cabin lighting failure. This patented technology “Made in Germany” is 100% customizable in color and shape making it the trusted choice for all commercial aircraft. 

GuideU - Safety in line with Design

GuideU quickly recharges during normal cabin lighting and is even faster to install. No special tools are needed during the fitting of the strips that can simply be cut to length at the installation site.
