Tactile paving—also known as tactile ground surface indicators (TGSI)—supports safe, independent movement for blind and partially sighted individuals. Our complete range of tactile surfaces helps improve hazard awareness, provide directional guidance, and enable inclusive access across public and commercial environments.
From pedestrian crossings and train platforms to staircases and entrances, tactile paving is essential for meeting DDA, BS 8300, and Part M regulations—while enhancing everyday safety and accessibility.
Raised tactile profiles—such as blister studs, tactile mats, and corduroy bars—help signal elevation changes, kerbs, and other risk areas to pedestrians underfoot or by cane.
Directional tactile bars provide clear orientation cues across busy or complex spaces like transport hubs, campuses, and shared-use walkways.
We stock tactile studs that meet Department for Transport (DfT) specifications—25mm diameter x 5mm height—supporting full compliance with Building Regulations Part M and BS 8300. Alternative sizes are available to suit various surface types and project needs.
Our tactile products are engineered for long-term performance and safety in both indoor and outdoor settings. They're slip-resistant, weatherproof, and compatible with substrates such as concrete, tile, wood, and metal.
Tactile paving is more than a compliance measure—it’s a vital part of inclusive urban design. Support accessibility, confidence, and safe public navigation with our tested and trusted tactile products.
