Braille Signages – Enhancing Accessibility and Independence
At Vibgyor Industries, we believe that accessibility is a fundamental right. We are excited to announce our latest initiative: the introduction of high-quality Braille sign boards designed to enhance navigation and inclusivity for individuals with visual impairments. Our commitment to creating a barrier-free environment is at the heart of everything we do.
Braille is a system of raised dots that can be read by touch by people who are blind or have low vision. Louis Braille invented it in the 19th century, and it is widely used worldwide as a means of literacy and communication for visually impaired people. Braille can represent letters, numbers, punctuation, symbols, and even musical notation.
Braille signage is the application of braille to signs that provide information, guidance, or identification in public spaces. Braille signage is essential for making buildings and facilities accessible and inclusive for visually impaired people, who face many challenges and barriers in navigating the physical environment.
According to the World Health Organization (WHO), at least 2.2 billion people have a near or distance vision impairment, of which 36 million are blind and 217 million have moderate to severe vision impairment. In the United States, about 25.5 million adults have some form of vision loss, of which 1 million are legally blind. In Brazil, where this blog post is written, there are an estimated 6.5 million people with visual impairment, of which 1.2 million are blind.
This blog post aims to highlight the benefits of braille signage for visually impaired people and showcase some of the best practices and examples of braille signage in different sectors and settings.

Polyurethane (PU) Tactile Tiles
Polyurethane tactile tiles serve as crucial tools in enhancing accessibility and safety for individuals with visual impairments or those who are blind. These PU tactile tiles are embedded into sidewalks, pedestrian crossings, train platforms, and other public spaces to provide tactile cues. The polyurethane construction ensures durability and longevity, even in diverse weather conditions. By providing detectable underfoot guidance, these tiles assist visually impaired individuals in navigating urban environments independently and safely. The standardized patterns, such as those indicating pedestrian crossings or hazardous areas, facilitate consistency and recognition. Polyurethane tactile tiles thus play a vital role in promoting inclusivity and mobility for everyone in the community.
We offer high performance PU tactile tiles that are manufactured using qualitative material. We tailor make the tactile tiles as per the requirement of our clients.
POLYURETHANE TACTILE TILES BENEFITS
Polyurethane tactile tiles offer a range of benefits that contribute to improved accessibility, safety, and inclusivity in public spaces:
- Enhanced Navigation: Tactile tiles provide individuals with visual impairments clear and consistent cues about their surroundings, helping them navigate confidently and independently through urban environments.
- Safety: By indicating hazards like edges of platforms or changes in elevation, these tiles help prevent accidents and tripping for not only visually impaired individuals but also pedestrians in general.
- Improved Orientation: Tactile paving aids in orienting individuals, enabling them to identify specific pathways, crosswalks, or transit points, leading to a more efficient and seamless travel experience.
- Inclusivity: Installing tactile tiles demonstrates a commitment to creating inclusive environments that accommodate the needs of all individuals, fostering a sense of belonging and participation in public spaces.
- Legal Compliance: In many regions, there are regulations and accessibility standards in place that mandate the use of tactile indicators in public areas. PU tactile tiles help businesses and municipalities meet these legal requirements.
- Durability: PU offer resistance to corrosion and wear ensures the longevity of tactile tiles, resulting in reduced maintenance costs over time.
- Universal Design: The standardized patterns and colors used in tactile paving ensure a universal language that is easily recognizable to individuals with visual impairments, reducing confusion and increasing predictability.
- Public Awareness: The presence of tactile tiles raises awareness among the general public about the needs and challenges faced by individuals with visual impairments, fostering a more inclusive and empathetic society.
- Assistance for Caregivers: Tactile paving not only benefits visually impaired individuals but also their caregivers, who can navigate these spaces more confidently when assisting those with visual impairments.
Overall, PU tactile tiles offer a tangible and effective solution for making public spaces more accessible, safer, and welcoming for everyone, regardless of their visual abilities.
