i-glo flexitactalert - a ‘new generation’ of safer tactiles - has been recently rolled out on Network Rail (Eastern) platforms.
A 29% saving and 97% reduction on carbon footprint over competitor products has also been achieved.
We are now looking to extend to other regions of Network Rail.
Main Benefits of the flexitactalert system:
• Guarantee for 10 years: single source
- manufacture to installation
• Safer - ‘alert’ and ‘top up’ prevent non-detection
This innovative product features a new in-situ ‘alert’ and ‘top-up’ system to prevent tactiles from becoming non-detectable to the visually impaired.
Main Benefits (continued):
• 6.2 times more wear resistant than concrete
• 4 times better adhesion than competitor products
• Slip resistant throughout its wearable lifetime
• Flexible polymer - resistant to impact and freeze/thaw cycles
• 'Top-up system’ a fraction of the cost of full tile replacement
• Sustainable solution - no waste tiles to landfill
Back in 2018 we were contacted by Middleborough Council to install an Anti-Slip system onto 600 metres of highstreets drains.
They'd received a number of reports of pedestrians slipping on these drains in the wet and needed a permanent solution.
The resin bound contractors installed our markers every 1.5 metres each side of the path.
This creates a safe walkway where there are no lights, highlighting the edge of the path for all users.
A new pedestrian path installed through a park without sufficient lighting meaning our disc markers highlight the edge of the path.
Installed flush with the top coat of resin bound.
A new shared cycle/pedestrian path was created through a rural area with no lighting.
Our glow signage was used for day & night access.
They had a problem with people slipping on these sandstone paving when wet.
55mm Anti-Slip Secure Step was installed on the edge of every step to to ensure they were safe to use in all weather conditions.
The owner of the apartments kept having problems with people parking over two spaces meaning some people couldn't get parked later on in the day.
We installed 18 car spaces in total with a width of 2.9 metres.
They had Anti-Slip tape installed which was coming back up every other month and needed a permanent solution.
Installed with their logo and club colours to make them stand out.
All sandblasted and filled in house and despatched within 2 working days.
This cycle/pedestrian path had lighting throughout so our glow in the dark would not be as effective so the customer chose white to stand out in day & night.
Other contractors had recently installed a new shared cycle/pedestrian path and needed surface mounted tactiles to finish off the crossings.
We supplied the contractors with the tactiles and easy fitting guide and then they could sign the project off.
110mm discs used to create a safe path for everyone day and night.
Installed every 1.5 metres for maximum affect.
They had contacted a number of different tiling companies after all the tiles had chipped or cracked leaving a number of trip hazards but no one could carry out the job due to the concrete underneath.
Our step covers have a aluminium backing meaning we used epoxy resin to infill any holes and simply attached the covers to original concrete.
Resin Bound path with our discs fitted connecting 2 villages together in Oxford.
The path runs through woods meaning no lighting, meaning our discs highlight edge of path and make all users feel safe.
A ramp manufacture had no choice but to install the top platform the other way to normal meaning there anti-slip surface didn't have as much of an effect.
After a report of someone slipping in the wet they contacted us to see if we had any products to solve this problem. 55mm strips with a 70mm gap in-between were fitted to ensure that the platform still drains correctly.
These natural stone steps had been installed throughout the reconstruction of Hay Castle. They were manufactured with a recess already but needed the Anti-Slip inserts fitted.
We manufactured the inserts inhouse and installed them the following week.
The Customer wanted to revamp and maximise safety on his fire exit routes within his company premises using a range of our products.
Anti-Slip surfaces and Glow In The Dark material were installed throughout the job meaning safe night time evacuation.
