Road markings are one of the main components of the road, as they carry important information about the roadway for drivers and passers-by.
Road markings are usually performed using special materials and paints. Below we will describe the main methods for performing road markings.
For marking lines on the road, paint is used that has high visibility and wear resistance. Synthetic paints are commonly used, which dry quickly and are highly resistant to traffic and weather conditions. The paint can be applied using special paint sprayers or manual marking machines.
Thermoplastic materials are also used for road markings. These are special materials that are melted by heat and applied to the surface of the road. After hardening, they form a durable and wear-resistant marking. Thermoplastic markings can be convex (used for traffic separation lines) or flat (used for characters, characters and text).
Special road films can be used for temporary or portable road marking. These are flexible films containing a marking layer and can be glued to the road surface. Road films are widely used for temporary marking at construction sites or during repair work.
The choice of a specific marking method depends on the type of road, wear requirements, budget and other factors.
What is the most popular road marking material?
The most popular material for road marking is paint, as it is easy to use, durable and pleasant in cost.
When choosing a paint, you should pay attention to its technical characteristics, since the mandatory requirements are: durability, wear resistance, resistance to UV radiation and light reflection.
We recommend Teknobond 960 synthetic resin road marking paint. It is suitable for use on asphalt and concrete surfaces. The density of the material is 1.7 kg/l, and the consumption is about 150 g/m2.
