Road & Highway Markings
Let our certified markings lead the way
Road markings that guide and protect
Road markings are one of the most important sources of information on the road. They help drivers stay in the correct lane, navigate safely, and react to changing road conditions. In low-light conditions, at night, or during rain, clear and visible markings become even more important. As vehicles increasingly rely on Advanced Driver Assistance Systems (ADAS), the need for durable, highly visible road markings continues to grow.
Certified safety
When it comes to road markings, quality matters. Before a marking material can be used on public roads, it must undergo extensive testing and certification to verify its performance and durability. Certification provides assurance that a product meets recognised standards and technical requirements.
Through laboratory testing and field evaluations, we continuously validate the quality of our solutions. This helps ensure reliable performance on the road while supporting safe and efficient traffic flow.
Proven under real traffic conditions
Laboratory testing is only part of the story. To fully understand how road markings perform, they must also be tested under real traffic conditions. Road trials allow us to evaluate durability, visibility, and functionality in everyday use.
These practical tests provide valuable insights and help us refine our products, ensuring they meet both our own high standards and the expectations of road authorities, contractors, and drivers.

Visibility day and night
Good visibility is essential for effective road guidance. Glass beads play a key role in making road markings easier to see, especially at night and in challenging weather conditions. When headlights illuminate the beads, light is reflected back toward the driver, helping markings remain visible from a distance.
Combined with high-quality marking materials, glass beads enhance guidance and improve road visibility throughout the lifetime of the marking.
Reliable in all weather conditions
Roads are exposed to a wide range of weather conditions, and road markings need to perform in all of them. Flat Type I markings provide excellent visibility in dry conditions, while structured Type II markings are specifically designed to improve visibility during wet weather.
Their textured profile helps water drain away from the surface, allowing the markings to remain visible even when it rains. Combined with high-quality glass beads, they help provide consistent guidance for drivers day and night, whatever the weather.

Edge lines & lane markings
Clear, visible markings help drivers stay in the correct lane and navigate safely, regardless of weather conditions. For edge lines and lane markings on high-traffic roads, we typically recommend our hot-applied materials or plural component systems, which can be applied as either flat or structured markings. Flat Type I markings provide excellent visibility at night in dry conditions, while structured Type II markings are designed to remain highly visible in wet weather, helping drivers maintain clear guidance even during rain.
Traffic guidance and symbols
Our certified PREMARK™ range includes a wide variety of arrows, symbols, and other traffic guidance markings designed to provide clear direction wherever they are needed. With a high level of retroreflection, the markings remain highly visible at night when illuminated by vehicle headlights. PREMARK™ is also known for its fast and easy application, helping minimise road closures and keep traffic disruptions to a minimum.
Colour demarcation
Some areas need to stand out. Using colour helps highlight specific lanes, zones, and high-risk areas, making the road easier to read for all users. Our MMA product range offers durable coloured surface markings that combine high visibility with added skid resistance to improve safety and awareness. The result is clearer separation between vehicle traffic, cyclists, pedestrians, and other vulnerable road users.
Retroreflection and visibility
Glass beads are essential for making road markings visible at night. By reflecting light from vehicle headlights back towards the driver, they help improve guidance and safety in low-light conditions. Our UCme™ range of glass beads and anti-skid materials is designed to complement our marking systems and deliver the visibility, durability, and skid resistance needed for different road environments.
