Eco-Discs


Cost effective eco-friendly illumination for paths, cycleways and walkways.

Safe for all, easy to install, maintenance-free

What is an Eco-Disc?

Born from a need for cost-effective and zero-energy way-finding and path lighting, the Eco-Disc uses STARPATH technology to harness UV energy and generate light for over 10 hours, even with minimal exposure to direct light.


Formulated from exceptionally hard wearing polypropylene composites, the Eco-Disc provides the perfect solution for sustainable way-finding on dark paths, cycleways and walkways.
 

Why use Eco-Discs?

If you have an unstable or unavailable electricity supply, or if the cost of wiring up is prohibitive, the Eco-Disc is ideal as it needs only direct UV light to charge and supply way-finding markers for cyclists and pedestrians.


They make the perfect addition for future-focused Councils, government agencies and organisations looking to cut energy consumption and harness sustainable energy to define walkways, cycleways and paths after dark.


Eco-Discs have been described by users of walkways as a 'psychological handrail' ... stay between the dots and stay safe.

Installation

Eco-Discs have a 25 year life expectancy and a glow time of up to 10 hours dependent on charge. The versatility of the Eco-Disc means it can be installed:

  • Fixed to the path surface using silicone adhesive or other recommended methods

  • Fastened / screwed to posts or bollards

  • Flush mounted to walkway surfaces to minimise trip hazards

 

International Dark Sky Association endorsed

Eco-Discs are endorsed by the International Dark Sky Association for their ability to reduce energy consumption but also for offering a ‘zero light pollution’ alternative to traditional lighting fixtures.

Cat's eyes - road studs


Cat's eyes or road studs are also known as retroreflective raised pavement markers (RRPMs).

Our road studs are visible beyond the reach of a vehicle's 'light bubble' meaning less stressful and safer night driving.

Our design incorporates both UV-charged photoluminescent and headlight reflective components.

The studs are installed using the same methods of attachment to the road surface as traditional cat's eyes.
