There are approximately 1 million blind and partially sighted adults in the United Kingdom. Approximately 5% of these people have no sight at all. When moving around the pedestrian environment, visually impaired people will actively seek and make use of tactile information underfoot, particularly detectable floor indicators used in tactile paving.
Our surface mounted tactile paving slabs incorporate raised profiles to warn people that they are approaching a change in elevation such as railway platforms, pedestrian crossings, staircase ascent and descent areas and many other applications.
System benefits:
- No surface excavation required
- Rapid installation
- Adheres to most construction surfaces
- Hard wearing and durable
- Lightweight and easy to transport
- No 'hot works' adhesive only application
Applications:
Blister paving surface for pedestrian crossings
Platform edge (off & on street) warning surfaces
Section 12 platform edge warning surface
Corduroy hazard warning surface
Guidance path surface
Shared cycle way/footway surface
