Types of Road Marking
We offer a comprehensive range of road marking services tailored to meet various needs and applications. Below are some of the primary types of road markings we specialize in:
1. Thermoplastic Road Marking
Thermoplastic road markings are highly durable and visible, making them ideal for high-traffic areas. These markings are applied as a hot liquid to the road surface and then solidify into a thick, wear-resistant layer.
Benefits:
- Long-lasting durability
- High visibility, both day and night
- Resistant to weather and wear
2. Curbstone Marking
Curbstone markings are used to highlight curbs and edges, providing clear guidance for drivers and pedestrians. These markings are essential for enhancing safety and ensuring proper traffic flow in urban areas.
Benefits:
- Improves visibility of curbs
- Enhances pedestrian safety
- Clearly delineates road boundaries
3. Cycle Lane Marking
Cycle lane markings designate specific lanes for cyclists, promoting safe and organized cycling traffic. These markings encourage the use of bicycles and improve overall road safety for all users.
Benefits:
- Promotes safe cycling
- Reduces traffic congestion
- Encourages environmentally friendly transportation
4. Runway Marking
Runway markings are critical for the safe operation of aircraft on runways and taxiways. These markings provide essential information for pilots during takeoff, landing, and taxiing.
Benefits:
- Enhances aviation safety
- Provides clear guidance for pilots
- Complies with aviation regulations
5. Traffic Sign Marking
Traffic sign markings include symbols, text, and other indicators painted directly onto the road surface. These markings communicate important information to drivers and pedestrians, such as speed limits, pedestrian crossings, and directional arrows.
Benefits:
- Provides clear, direct communication
- Enhances road safety
- Improves traffic flow and organization
Photo luminescent Paint – Glow In The Dark Paint For Safer Road Marking
The concept of Glow in the dark Road Markings gained heightened attention following an article from BBC News, catching public interest in this innovative safety feature. Glow in the dark road markings come in various forms, primarily solvent-based paint, water-based paints, and thermoplastic paint. Solvent-based paints are chosen for outdoor road due to their durability and strong adhension. Water-based paints, known for their eco-friendly benefits, are equally popular in some countries. Thermoplastic paints represent another excellent choice with its weather and ware resistant , allowing for the fusion of glow in the dark pigments with thermoplastic materials.
Road Sign Ornaments
Plastic Road Stud
Road studs, also called raised pavement marker, Botts` dots, cat`s eyes, or road turtles are used for lane delineation, especially during the hours of darkness and adverse weather conditions.
Glass road stud
They increase visibility on roads, especially during adverse weather conditions such as fog or rain. The bright reflective material used in road studs reflects the headlights of a car, making it easier for drivers to see the road ahead.
Solar Road studs
Solar road studs are flashing solar cell powered LED low-maintenance lighting devices that delineate road edges and centrelines. Embedded in the road surface, they are an electronic improvement on the traditional cat’s eyes and raised pavement marker in that they may give drivers a larger reaction window.
Ceramic Road Stud
It also serves as the function of visual guidance, which is much better than ordinary lines. The ceramic road studs with a low-cost, good adhesion are usually installed on the lane lines, the edges of the tunnel, and the deceleration area that help to improve road safety.
Tactile Indicator Stud
While the primary use of tactile indicator studs is to provide a supportive infrastructure for people who are blind or vision-impaired, they’re also used as a safety measure to prevent avoidable accidents that the general public may be exposed to.
Tactile Indicator Strip
Tactile strips are to be placed before a staircase to alert blind or visually impaired people. For more security, tactile strips and dots contribute to better signage. They must be installed in public spaces subject to accessibility standards.
Reflective Panel
Benefits of Reflectors on Roads. Improved visibility: Road reflectors act as visual beacons, providing drivers with enhanced visibility of road markings, edges, and curves. They reflect vehicle headlights. This shows the path, even in low-light or bad weather.
Reflective Cat Eye
Cats eyes are reflective road studs that help to illuminate road boundaries for drivers at night. They’re most prevalent on roads where street lighting isn’t available, or on extremely busy highways, including motorways, country roads and rural A roads.
Traffic Baton/Wand
Traffic baton lights play a crucial role in facilitating smooth traffic flow and control. Equipped with different lighting modes such as steady, flashing, and strobe, they offer versatile signaling options for directing vehicles and pedestrians.
Road Marking Tape
Road marking tape, also known as pavement marking tape or traffic tape, is a type of adhesive tape specifically designed for marking roads, parking lots, and other paved surfaces. It typically comes in rolls and is made from durable materials like thermoplastics, reflective beads, and adhesive backing.
Solar Traffic Sign
The solar-powered traffic light utilizes high-brightness LED as the light source. It is widely used as the traffic warning sign and the guiding sign to avoid road accident, by virtue of the high safety, easy installation, long lifespan, good reliability, and little cable corrosion.
Reflective safety
Vest
Reflective vests and uniforms are for use in low light levels and nighttime work environments. For instance, road construction workers who are working at night should have reflective clothing. The vests reflect light that is shined on them, so workers are easier to see.
Reflective Sheet – Traffic Sign
Reflective 3M- Diamond (DG3)
It helps improve safety by providing higher luminance values at distances most critical to drivers. 3M™ Diamond Grade™ DG³ Reflective Sheeting is a highly reflective, durable, microprismatic lens sheeting with pressure sensitive adhesive.
3M – Super high intensity(HIP)
High Intensity Prismatic reflective sheeting is a non-metallised microprismatic sheeting which is designed for use on permanent, static, road traffic signs and delineators that are exposed vertically in service. The sheeting is supplied with a pressure sensitive adhesive which is protected by a plastic liner.
3M Engineering Grade(EGP)
A non-metalized micro-prismatic lens reflective sheeting designed for production of non-critical traffic signs (such as no-parking, handicapped or restricted-parking) and commercial signage that are exposed vertically in service. The sheeting can easily be identified by the visible integral ‘EGP’ marking.
