TACTILE PAVING SURFACES

Tactile Paving – Safer, Inclusive Navigation in Public Spaces

Tactile paving systems are designed to support safe, independent movement for blind and partially sighted individuals. Our range of tactile indicators improves hazard awareness, directional guidance, and inclusive access in a wide variety of public and commercial environments.

Whether at pedestrian crossings, train platforms, staircases, or building entrances, tactile paving is essential for meeting DDA, BS 8300, and Part M compliance—while enhancing everyday safety.

Why Choose Our Tactile Paving Solutions?

Enhanced Hazard Awareness

Raised tactile profiles—such as blister studs and corduroy bars—help signal elevation changes, kerbs, or high-risk zones to pedestrians.

Guided Wayfinding

Directional surfaces provide intuitive navigation through complex spaces such as transport hubs, shopping centres, and bus depots.

DfT-Compliant Options Available

We offer tactile studs compliant with Department for Transport (DfT) standards—specifically the 25mm diameter and 5mm height specification. These support key accessibility goals under Building Regulations Part M and BS 8300. Other sizes are available to suit varying site needs.

Durable, Anti-Slip, and Versatile

Engineered for longevity and safety, our tactile products are suitable for both indoor and outdoor use. They are weather-resistant, anti-slip, and compatible with substrates such as concrete, tile, wood, and metal.
