Tactile flooring for floor

People with complete loss of vision or reduced visual acuity often face difficulties in moving around. The task of modern society is to create the most comfortable and safe living conditions for them. Such people have better developed other senses, in particular hearing and touch.

One of the most effective solutions for safe navigation is tactile flooring , which can be felt with your feet or a cane. It is a tile with a relief surface that helps warn of an obstacle or indicate the direction of movement.

Tactile coatings are made from various materials - ceramics, granite, porcelain stoneware, concrete, and polymers.

Protex Company offers tactile tiles TM "Arfen" , made of elastomer with the addition of polyurethane. Such material has a number of significant advantages:

  • High elasticity – does not crack or split even under the influence of significant loads or temperature changes.

  • Wear resistance – the surface is not slippery, which increases safety of movement.

  • Integrated color – the tile is colored in the mass in a bright yellow color, clearly visible to people with partial vision.

  • Installation versatility – it is laid over concrete or any other surface, which is especially convenient when tactile navigation was not provided for at the design stage.

Comparison with traditional materials

By using the tactile coating of TM " Arfen " , you will provide people with visual impairments with more comfortable, safe and independent movement , helping them feel confident with every step.
