Guidance Strips SALA BACKE – Polyurethane – Tactile Guidance Bars and Stop Markings – 3M Tape

Tactile pathways are an important part of the accessibility of public buildings and premises. The pathways are both visual and tactile and lead to important destinations such as elevators, toilets, reception and stairwells.

Tactile polyurethane indicators – indicators, studs and contrast markers.

Safestep SALA BACKE is our all-polyurethane product range. The range includes tactile surface indicators, studs and contrast markings in various colors and attachments.

Polyurethane indicators are a durable alternative with many advantages: affordable, durable and hygienic. The profiles have a smooth surface, which makes them easy to maintain. Polyurethane is a soft material and more comfortable to walk on with barefoot feet, making them suitable for use in e.g. bathhouses, schools, and changing rooms.

Polyurethane tactile indicators – black and white.

The polyurethane series is available in white and black, which means that they can provide high contrast on both dark and light floors. They have a smooth, self-adhesive backing with 3M double-sided tape for fast and durable results.

Important to remember: Public premises should be provided with logical pathways that lead between selected target points. In open spaces such as station buildings, receptions and foyers, there should be coherent tactile and visual pathways. The paths should provide directional orientation and safely guide us in the right direction – past obstacles and to the destination points.

The tactile indicators should also be installed with different materials and a brightness contrast of at least 0.4 NCS – either lighter or darker than the surroundings.
