PolyBlade offers an alternative installation option for plastic tactile indicators, ideal for large areas where the aesthetic disruption of a pad- or plate-type indicator is not wanted. The product is available in both stud and directional indicator formats, making it highly versatile and suited to a wide range of situations.
PolyBlade is easily installed onto most substrates using a saw-cut process. As with all CTA products, this can be organised by the builder or project manager, or CTA can arrange installation by our professional installers with guaranteed short turnaround times.
In accordance with The National Construction Codes, the Access to Premises Standards AS1428 and the Disability Discrimination Act (DDA), it is mandatory to provide Tactile Guidance systems in areas which warrant warning of an impending hazard or where directional guidance is required. This is typically at the top/bottom of stairs and ramps; and when directing the vision impaired to areas of significance in large public areas, refer AS1428 for more detail. PolyBlade meets all of the standard requirements and provides maximum safety for both indoor and outdoor applications.
