Description
- Self-adhesive.
- Excellent resistance to soft coating, tile, wood, glass, laminate flooring, natural stone, smooth concrete.
- Ideal for signaling potentially dangerous areas (staircase, pole, obstacle) to make buildings accessible to people with visual impairments.
- Patented product indoor use.
- Hazard warning surface (before stairs) for people with visual impairments.
- Aesthetic solution with respect for visual contrast and anti-slip requirements.
- High quality 3M type of adhesive is used to ensure proper gluing on the floor.
- Dots shouldn’t be glued on varnished surfaces/greasy surfaces.
- Grease should be properly removed from surface to be fitted thanks to some solvent (alcohol based for instance).
- We have more than 5 years’ experience with these products and no issue came up except one, in a swimming pool where remaining water was surrounding the dots.
What is it?
- Ideal warning device: for potentially dangerous places (i.e.: stairs), for persons with visual impairments, etc.
- Aesthetic: solution with respect of visual contrast floor/dots.
- Excellent fit: on flexible pavement, tile, wood, glass, laminate flooring, natural stone, smooth concrete.
- Mounting Sheet: 313 x 313mm | 13.4" x 13.4" with 32 composite Tactile Dots.
- Simple: effective and reliable implementation of the kit, installation by one person without tools or glue.
- Self-adhesive last generation solution for sustainable holding on the floor: good mechanical, chemical and thermal strength.
- Techno-polymer solution: in compliance with implementation in a pool or bathroom (no cold sensation when walking bare foot on the device).
Feature
- One installation kit = One transparent mounting plate + 32 self-adhesive dots + 2 repositionable adhesives
- Creation of a tactile warning band by indexing normalized mounting plates (including width of 313 mm for indoor use, length adaptable to the configuration of the plate).
- To simply the implementation, mounting sheets are temporarily held in position on the ground with repositionable adhesive.
- Dot in injection techno-polymer material, diameter 25 mm, height 5 mm, with anti-slip surface with striations (NF P98-351).
Strong resistance B (Test site IC Cinema and Pool)
- Glue stability on different supports after temperature variation and resistance to saline mist.
- Slip resistance.
- Indentation resistance.
- Shear strength of the adhesive after staying of different chemicals.
- Shear strength of the adhesive bond.
- Wear resistance.
- Shock fatigue strength of the adhesive bond.
Ultra quick installation
- Creation of a tactile warning band by indexing normalized mounting plates (reduced width of 340 mm for indoor use, length adaptable to the configuration of the place).
- To simplify the implementation, mounting plates are temporarily held in position on the ground with repositionable adhesive.
- Simple, effective and reliable implementation of the kit.
- Installation labor: One person without tools or glue.
- Installation time: <10 minutes per linear meter.
Sheet
- Size: 30x30 cm
- Quantity: 32 Raise Dots per sheet
- Minimum Order: 3 Boxes of 24 Sheets
Summary
- Indoor domes in compliance with European, Spanish and US standards.
- The studs comply with ISO 23599, UNE-CEN/TS 15209 EX and ANSI A117.1-2017.
- Self-adhesive solution for indoor use on all types of floor except carpet.
- No drying time, clean process, saves installation time.
