Safety: tactile floors for the visually impaired
The Caesar floors for use as tactile paths are based on a system comprising raised surfaces
Tactile paths: safe passage with Caesar solutions
Caesar tactile floors comprise raised surfaces that are easily identified when crossed. These allow the blind and partially-sighed to orientate themselves in places and clearly identify obstacles and other potential dangers along the route.

A guide for the visually impaired
Being able to move freely through public buildings and spaces, while at the same time being made fully aware of the possible dangers, is a fundamental right of every citizen, even though architectural barriers still limit the access to some services and the social interaction of the visually impaired.
This situation has forced governments to legislate for the full accessibility to public areas, such as pavements and sidewalks, squares, stations and shopping malls.
When project-planning a building, it is therefore necessary to foresee an artificial path guide for the visually impaired to guarantee their independence and safety, a flooring system such as SAFETY, a special flooring designed and created by Caesar to satisfy these important requirements.
