It is a tile-in profile: the nosing is bedded into the tile adhesive at the edge of each step while the stair is being tiled, and the tile butts up to it, so it sits flush with the tread and there are no visible fixings. A glow strip runs along the nose, with a 38mm quartz textured anti-slip insert behind it.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cfigure\u003e\u003cimg src=\"https:\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0601\/5274\/2046\/files\/atc-tile-in-stair-nosing-56x55-technical-drawing.png?v=1793030349\" alt=\"Heavy duty 56 x 55mm tile-in stair nosing with glow strip technical drawing, cross-section and insert LRVs\" width=\"1024\" height=\"1024\" loading=\"lazy\"\u003e\u003c\/figure\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eWhy it works\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eTwo inserts, two jobs\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe front strip is a photoluminescent compound that stores light and releases it as a green glow, measured at 455 mcd\/m² ten minutes after charging and staying highly visible for more than 600 minutes. If the lighting fails on an escape stair, each step edge still shows. Behind it, the 38mm quartz textured insert is the walking surface: an external-grade, gritted blend of PVC and silica quartz in a raised pyramid pattern, rated R11 on the DIN 51130 ramp test with pendulum values of 57 dry and 47 wet to BS 7976-2, for grip in wet and dry conditions.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eAluminium takes the knocks, not the tile\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eA 6063-T6 aluminium extrusion takes the heel strikes, trolley wheels and dropped tools that would chip the tile edge, the part of a tiled step most likely to chip.
