Information on this page is an alpha listing of Suppliers, which provide tactile and audio indicators for blind and vision impaired people in Queensland.
Against each Supplier is a basic and brief description of the products they provide. This page has been compiled by the Queensland Blind Association Inc. to assist blind and vision impaired people either in a professional or personal capacity.
As a starting point, the Standards Australia (refer to listing on this page) should be consulted first, as it provides requirements for the design and application of tactile ground surface indicators for new buildings to ensure safe and dignified mobility of people who are blind or vision impaired.
