PHOTOLUMINESCENT ANTISLIP STAIR NOSINGS / STEP-FRONTS

Glowway’s new patented innovation combines three important features in one product.
1. High-quality photoluminescent glass strip makes the stairs visible in darkness.
2. Rubber part provides friction and makes the stairs non-slippery.
3. Dark rubber part also provides an excellent contrast stripe for light colored steps. Light contrast color is available for darker stair materials as a custom product. 

​The product is delivered to the end customer already imbedded in the stair planks by our partner companies (in Finland Rudus Oy). This results in seamless and top-quality end result and there is no extra installation costs for the customer.

Glowway trackedge system combines indication light and a safety system in one while the yellow trackedge in itself fulfills the Eu-safety regulations.

LED attention light (in the midlle) allows passengers to be warned, for example, when a train arrives. The photoluminescent feature, on the other hand, controls the  flow in emergencies and during a power failure.
