Pasamano© marcal proposes a range of design tactile signage products that favors accessibility to information for all audiences in buildings, train stations, subway and airports.
The tactile devices are made and engraved in aluminum to create visual and tactile contrast: the information is in raised braille and embossed characters, and the finish is brushed. The visual contrast of the tactile signs is obtained by black anodizing of the background respect to the relief area.
The creation of Pasamano© marcal is customizable from vectorized graphic files. The message is synthetic: arrow, pictogram, text or coding. Given this synthesis of information, the space limitations (character height, typeface and language...) and tactile reading times, force reflection on the careful choice of placement of this accessibility signage.
Pasamano© marcal is used on handrails and walkways and assist blind and visually impaired people to floor levels on stairs, facilitates the access in transport platforms or provides various identifications in technical aids.
The references of Pasamano©A y Pasamano©D are customizable in content and are installed directly on handrails or wall-mounted over handrails, preferably on the right side. The bending of the device in half-round is variable (between 35mm and 55mm) and is fixed by structural adhesive or by mechanical fixing.
On a flat surface (wall or square section handrails ...) Pasamano©B and Pasamano©C are fixed mechanically and/or by structural adhesive.
This full acces© product take notice of the guidelines for visibility, readability, comprehension, contrasts, placement height in the ADA and DDA regulations with the insertion of tactile and Braille elements.
