ACCESSIBILITY AND INCLUSIVITY

FOR ALL AGES AND ABILITIES

Run, wheel, crawl, jump, tumble, and relax. Play possibilities are endless for all ages and abilities on Life Floor. We celebrate what makes each person as unique as our cushioned, slip-resistant surfaces that invite all types of aquatic fun. People deserve to play fearlessly and boundlessly.

There isn’t one type of play just as there isn’t one type of person. Facilities with Life Floor are known to accommodate risky, imaginative, inclusive, and multi-generational play.


PRODUCT FEATURES

Texture Changes for Non-Visual Signals

Texture change around pool decks improves accessibility by tactilely signalling that a depth of water is present and to use caution similar to how truncated domes function at the crosswalks of streets.

Life Floor offers different textures that can be paired to achieve non-visual signalling when used in barefoot areas such as pool decks.

Visual Signals Integrated on the Surface

Visual signals are an important safety feature to show depth changes, the presence of features, and represent a changing landscape when paired with zoning for different stages of childhood development.

Use visual signals for features, depth changes, and safety messaging such as depth markers, no-diving symbols, please walk signs, and more.

Life Floor is manufactured in over 30 colours which provides numerous design opportunities when choosing contrasting colours.

Zoning Spaces with Colourful Surfacing

Colour banding is commonly used on stairs to show where the edge of the step ends, but colours can also be used in design to show different areas tailored to varying play styles.

For example, if a splash pad is zoned into 3 areas, the surfacing can be a gradient of three colours to show the transition between spaces without halting play. By zoning spaces properly, people of all abilities can play freely without experiencing unanticipated features outside of their comfort level.


EQUITABLE AQUATICS

We believe that all aquatic spaces should be safe and fun for all people. Our products aren’t only made for luxury resorts or exclusive clubs. We love serving municipal and non-profit customers to help improve and brighten up their neighbourhood amenities.
