Detectable decorative rubber warning concrete tactile tile

1. Tactile Tile Description

Tactile Indicator (also called truncated domes, detectable warnings, tactile paving, tactile tile) is a system of textured ground surface indicators, its purpose is to provide a tactile surface on public pathways & access routes that can be felt underfoot and recognised as a warning of impending pedestrian hazard or directional information, particularly to the vision impaired or blind.

2. Tactile Indicator Features

a)  Manufactured using High-Tech Polyurethane.
b) Lead free and resistant to Ultraviolet(UV) light.
c) All stainless steels are 304 and marine grade 316, which has been further processed to ensure a lifetime of performance & resistance to corrosion.

 4. Directional Tactile Indicators

Directional or Guidance Tactile Indicators - also referred to as Leading Tactile, consist of a series of raised strips installed to the walking surface, give directional orientation in open spaces and designate the continuous accessible route to be taken to avoid hazards. They also give directional orientation to a person who must deviate from the continuous accessible path to gain access to a crossing point, public transport access point, or point of entry to a significant public facility eg, public toilet, information centre.

5. Application

a) Tactile Indicators are predominantly used to lead pedestrians to and identify public access facilities such as pedestrian crossings, stairs, lifts, public platforms, ramps and escalators.

 b) They are also used at public transport facilities to alert pedestrians to platform edges at train stations, bus and tram stop areas and ferry wharves

c) Within educational institutions, recreational facilities, hospitals, commercial sites, hotels, office buildings, museums, shopping centers or areas requiring a non slip surface etc.
