Glass door contrast markings

ExclusiveGlass door contrast markings

Contrast markings on glass surfaces are crucial for safety and accessibility, as they allow visually impaired people to be detected in time and prevent collisions. Minimalist aesthetic markings such as logos and subtle patterns often do not provide sufficient contrast, so it is essential to comply with standards for visual perception.

Hearing loops

Hearing inductive loops and other systems such as FM and Bluetooth make sound more accessible to people with hearing impairments by reducing noise and improving speech intelligibility. These systems should be provided in public spaces such as reception desks, meeting rooms and auditoriums.

Interior floor markings

To make it easy for blind and partially sighted people to access and use a public facility, it is essential to ensure that the route from the entrance to the reception desk is as short and easy as possible. If the counter is not directly at the entrance, the route can be marked in a very simple way.

A tale of five rooms

ExclusiveA tale of five rooms

On 14 October 2024, the National Council held a consultation on mobility and web accessibility for people with disabilities and the elderly, where a plan for a single national platform "The Story of Five Spaces" was presented. The platform, funded by the Ministry of Environment, Climate and Energy, will bring together data on accessibility of indoor spaces, the outdoor built environment, online content, on-call transport and home exercise technologies. The aim is to improve quality of life by providing better access to services and information. The event highlighted the importance of including people with disabilities and older people in society and the need for accessible infrastructure for all.
