Glowrail™ is a bespoke illuminated handrail system that combines precision metalwork with seamlessly integrated LED illumination to provide continuous, low-glare lighting for staircases, walkways and architectural feature environments.

Designed to suit project-specific requirements, Glowrail™ can be manufactured in straight, curved, angular, helical and complex multi-axis forms, delivering both functional illumination and refined architectural integration. Glowrail™ can be specified via the NBS portal for ease of inclusion within project specifications.

Stainless Steel LED Handrail — Standardised Range

A streamlined illuminated handrail system developed for efficient specification, consistent performance and scalable manufacture. While each handrail is custom fabricated to suit the requirements of the project, the system is based on proven Glowrail engineering principles and manufactured in-house at our Shrewsbury metalwork facility.

Designed for projects where durability, performance and cost-efficiency are key drivers, the system provides a strong alternative for large-scale commercial, public realm, transport, retail and exterior applications, delivering integrated LED illumination within a robust stainless steel handrail solution.
