Tactile Signs
For safe and independant
movement of the blind and partially sightedThese signs help blind and partially-sighted people to move safely and independently in public areas and in traffic areas. They enable visually impaired people to orientate themselves more easily in space and to identify potential hazards and obstacles. Standard floor markings consist of leading (ribbed) and warning (squared) markings, which must be correctly spaced.

FAQ
What materials are the tactile markings made of?

Where do we use tactile markings?
Tactile markings are used on both interior and exterior surfaces.
Why must there be a high colour contrast between the substrate and the markings?
The high colour contrast also makes it easier for the visually impaired to find their way around the room, allowing them to be independent.
What are warning and water marks?
Warning signs warn of danger and change of direction. Guide signs indicate the direction of walking for blind people.
