PEDESTRIAN SUBWAYS

Safe pedestrian subways and bicycle tunnels with colour and LED lighting

Safe pedestrian subways and bicycle tunnels

Illuminated pedestrian subways do not only offer a safer environment and enhanced security, they are also visually appealing. An opal, colour-impregnated or printed Hammerglass panel with LED-illumination provides an attractive focal point of light in the night darkness. When it comes to graffiti, marker tags or other soiling, most known detergents and chemicals can be used to clean up without the Hammerglass panels being damaged.

Light up with colour and LEDs

A colour-impregnated or printed Hammerglass panel with LED-illumination provides an attractive focal point of light in the night darknesst. Variable LED makes the effect even more spectacular. However, an illuminated pedestrian subway is not only visually appealing, but it also offers a safer environment and enhanced security.

The Hammerglass panels can be screen-printed or printed digitally. These techniques allow for printing in four colours, providing limitless scope for customised design. Subway panels can be provided with municipal coats of arms, and patterns can be repeated at regular intervals or designer printing can be provided. In the case of larger series of panels, there is a possibility of producing colour-impregnated Hammerglass.

Design and installation

To achieve the optimal fit, all panels are measured individually after a steel skeleton has been assembled. The panels are flexible and can be shaped for installation in bent profiles. Fixing is carried out with steel profiles/Hammerglass Fixpoints. Bring us into your discussions at the idea stage. Our designers will prepare drawings and offer suggestions for functional solutions. We will be happy to provide tenders for complete projects: Made-to-measure Hammerglass, posts, fixing systems and installation.
