HANDRAIL MEMBER

PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a handrail material used for a handrail installed for the safety of a pedestrian in a stair, a corridor, etc. SOLUTION: In the long-sized handrail member, in which a core material is covered with a synthetic resin, a recessed groove 21 is formed extending over the longitudinal direction of a synthetic resin layer 2, a long-sized surface illuminant 4 is laid in the recessed groove 21 while the surface of the surface illuminant 4 is covered with a light-transmitting material 5, and the surface of the handrail material linearly emits light and a handrail is easy to be visually recognized even at a place, where it is gloomy at all times and there is the small amount of light, because the surface illuminant 4 emits light. Since the surface of the surface illuminant 4 is covered with the light-transmitting material, the surface illuminant 4 is difficult to be damaged.
