Overview:
Access Products serves the needs of municipalities and building and facility owners. We manufacture, distribute, and install durable building products that provide for the safe and efficient movement of people on sidewalks, stairways, and bridges. Our products improve the quality of transportation infrastructure for pedestrians and the disabled, and ensure the safe egress of large numbers of people from public facilities.
For the transportation infrastructure market Access Products manufactures Access Tile™ Tactile Systems and the TripStop™ Dynamic Sidewalk Joint.
Access Tile is a tactile detectable warning surface that is designed to provide safe passage for pedestrians and the disabled on sidewalk curb ramps, pedestrian walkways, transit platforms and pedestrian bridges. Access Tile is compliant with the United States Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA) and international legislation for the improvement of disabled accessibility on public rights of way and transit systems.
TripStop™ is a dynamic sidewalk joint that eliminates trip hazards on concrete sidewalks due to sidewalk slab displacement from tree root invasion, soil movement or thermal expansion. TripStop enables governments to maintain safety compliance for sidewalks and pedestrian walkways to reduce the risk of trips and falls and the potential for personal injuries that might result.
Access Products produces Ecoglo photo luminescent path finding systems for large-scale buildings including arenas, stadiums, performing arts centers, high-rise office buildings, condominiums, and large-scale industrial facilities.
Ecoglo™ provides "glow-in-the-dark" supplementary emergency lighting and exit path markings for exit stairways, handrails and aisles in public buildings and industrial facilities that meet requirements of the International Building Code.
Access Products strives to provide building products to global markets that not only enable a safer built environment but also meet the demand for environmental sensitivity.

ecoglo®
|
The principles behind the use of ecoglo® products are simple. The photo luminescent strip absorbs natural or artificial light and then re-emits the light guiding people safely up steps and through passages in all conditions.

On steps the light strip is positioned as close to the edge of the step as possible. Normal motion is maintained when people are confident of where the edge of the step is.

The handrail strip provides visual and tactile confirmation of the handrail and on flat or sloped surfaces the pathway is defined by marking where the floor meets a wall.

TripStop
|
A patented product manufactured from engineered composites for durability and high performance over the planned life cycle of sidewalks. TripStop allows concrete to articulate and accommodates significant soil movement and tree root invasion with ease. This reduces the long-term costs of sidewalk maintenance, reduces waste, and virtually eliminates trip and fall hazards.

TripStop
|
TripStop's articulating sidewalk joint system eliminates trip hazards greater than 1/4” as defined by the ADA – Americans With Disabilities Act. TripStop promotes safer sidewalks for pedestrians to walk on, it enables safer 'bump free' rides for wheelchairs, cyclists and skate boarders.

TripStop
|
A series of tests using simulated tree root invasion and soil expansion/movement on sidewalk were conducted with TripStop joints installed. TripStop test results clearly showed minimal sidewalk displacement and maintained a smooth, hazard free sidewalk. TripStop also stayed under the maximum height for sidewalk displacement.
