Available in a range of Colours
Advanced Group's Tactiles are available in a range of colours to meet the 30% luminance contrast
requirements of the Australian Standard AS/NZS 1428 part 4 Tactile Ground
Surface Indicators in both Hazard and Directional profiles.
Flexible, Easy to
Scribe and Install
Advanced Group's Tactiles are manufactured from premium polymeric materials and will
contour to any substrate. They are easily shaped with a
knife and are dimensionally stable so they won't move once
bonded to concrete, bitumen, timber, pavers and most other
substrates.
Retro-fit in
300mm x 300mm Format
Advanced Group's Tactiles are available in 300x300mm format, so installation is easily completed by applying some Sikaflex polyurethane to the underside then positioning & then use tap in anchors to secure in place!
Improved Bonding
Technique
Advanced Group also understand that you are managing public
infrastructure which simply can not be shutdown for
prolonged periods of time. So, we endeavour to install from start to finish within 1 hour using our
unique process.
UV Stable and
Will Retain Colour Over Time
With over 20 years
combined experience in the Safety Industry, Advanced Group's tactile manufacturer has developed a unique blend of polymers
which provide optimum UV stability and wear resistance
without compromising on other physical properties. This
unique blend also ensures Advanced Group's tactiles
will not exhibit the unsightly effects of weathering or
“blooming” of plasticizers and processing aids. Advanced Group's tactiles
will remain vibrant for the life of the Product.
Australian
Standards
Advanced Group's tactiles meet Australian Standard AS/NZS 1428 part 4 Tactile Ground
Surface Indicators and are guaranteed to conform to all of the dimensional
requirements in order to provide safe and effective tactile cues for the vision
impaired. Available
in 300 mm x 300 mm retro-fit format, making installation
easy.
Aiding the vision impaired.
An
estimated 380,000 people in Australia currently suffer from blindness
and are legally vision impaired. These statistics will double as a
result of the aging population. Incorporating aides for the Vision
Impaired in all indoor and outdoor construction is not only good
practice, but has become mandatory in all Australian Building Codes and Public Access Disability Standards.
Tactile ground surface indicators are strategically laid to adequately guide pedestrians whilst traversing road-crossings, hazard zones and public buildings. Advanced Group's tactiles consist of two main uniform profiles:
- The Hazard profile - consisting of raised roundells - will define a hazard zone.
These can also be configured with another Safety Direction Indicator Tile.
- The Direction Indicator Tile profile - consisting of a series of barbell-shaped lugs – are strategically laid to indicate the direction of travel.
Ground Surface Indicators are available in tile form and as Individual free form components (STUDS).
- Retro fit poly tactile indicators.
- Poly tactile studs.
- Steel range of architectural stainless steel tactile studs.
- Pro stair nosing and tapes
CSIRO Tested
Tactile Tiles have a slip rating of R11 which is well beyond the Australia Standards code for both indoor and outdoor use
Colours Available
Tactiles are available in a range of standard and most widely used colours. Customers may also have their own colour range made up (minimum quantities apply) to ensure that the tiles enhance almost any design, style and colour scheme. Please Contact Us if you have any specialty colour requirements
Guaranteed Wear Resistance
The polyurethane Tactile has a unique non slip surface forged into the tile domes. This surface was thoroughly tested by the CSIRO and proven to exhibit ‘wear resistance’ equivalent to that of ‘granite’ and ‘glazed’ ceramic tiles. Tactiles are produced as squares, making them modular and able to be combined in endless configurations
SHAPES & SIZES
Tactiles are produced as squares, making them modular and able to be combined in endless configurations. The default sizes are:
* 300mm x 300mm
The unique formulation of these tiles makes them easy to cut accurately into the shapes required by unusual ground layouts and features.
*Advanced Group can supply and install for between $350 - $400 per square metre. (*Conditions Apply)
