GLASS BEADS FOR ROAD MARKING
Road safety markings provide drivers with continuous guidance and information about the road system. Road marking glass beads are an important part of this system. Not only do they enhance the reflectivity of markings, but they also improve their durability.

Application:
Reflectorized pavement marking lines make a significant contribution to road safety, especially in conditions of poor visibility at night. Applying the road marking glass beads is one of the most cost-effective ways to increase road safety in these conditions.
Mactech's road marking glass beads can be used with all varieties of commercially-available binders including water-borne paint, epoxy, thermoplastic, polyester, PMMA, polyurethane, polyurea and VOC-compliant paints,etc.
To ensure optium retroreflective performance and durability, the bead/binder system needs to be applied in the proper manner:
--Apply the beads immediately following the binder application
--Apply the beads evenly over the width and length of the marking.
