Glass Beads & Aggregates

Surface applied reflective, and if needed skid-resistant, markings.
B-HR, C-HR, and D-HR grades are APAS Approved.

Description

High visibility is important on roads and parking lot signage to improve safety at night and during wet conditions. Only road markings containing glass beads are clearly visible at night.

Different performance levels and aggregate combinations are available depending on skid resistance and wet condition requirements.
