Dual-Lite EV4R
EMERGENCY LIGHTING PLATINUM
Hubbell Lighting
There has been a significant increase in the number of education projects where a low-profile, non-intrusive emergency light is more than just recommended—it’s required. The low profile EV4R is unique in that it is the only IC-rated recessed LED emergency luminaire on the market. The design community will enjoy the recessed EV4R design that distends less than 3/16-inch below the ceiling plane. Specifiers will be excited to see it offers exceptional emergency lighting performance—with up to 42-foot spacing. Contractors will be pleased with the ease of adjustability based on mounting heights from 9 feet to 12 feet for opti- mal light pattern. The EV4R features best-in-class spacing based on photomet- ric reports to meet Life Safety Code for all recessed LED emergency lights. The EV4R is available in a rectangular or round trim-plate included with each fixture, in a white or black finish to help complement the compact, low-profile design.
Judges’ Comments: IC-Rating makes for safer installations. Superior coverage for lighting in emergency situations, streamlined appearance.

NeverFade Façade Restoration Coatings
PAINTS AND COATINGS PLATINUM
APV Engineered Coatings
NeverFade® Exterior Coatings from APV Engineered Coatings is a water- based, low-VOC restoration coating offering the durability of a baked-on sys- tem in a field-applied product. It contains Kynar Aquatec® PVDF resin, which is a tough, engineering thermoplastic that maintains high stability when exposed to harsh thermal, chemical and ultraviolet environments. In addition to the resin, NeverFade is formulated with an inorganic pigmentation system and UV blocking additives to inhibit fading. The unique chemistry also resists staining, dirt pickup, algae and fungal growth, and prevents corrosion.
Judges’ Comments: Nice product that can extend the life of existing façades, which will provide cost savings for schools/colleges. The warranty is very good.
