Highway Thermoplastic Markings vs. Line Paint

Highway Thermoplastic Markings vs. Line Paint

One of the most common questions we are asked by our clients are the benefits of using thermoplastic highway markings over traditional line painting. As specialists in thermoplastic markings, often discuss the positives of using more modern methods of road marking, over line painting.

Line paint is a more traditional method of making highway markings, however in recent years this has been overtaken by pre-formed thermoplastic markings. Due to line paint’s fluidity, errors can easily occur, which can be difficult to remove. However, pre-formed thermoplastic can be applied easily to the ground, with little room for errors when the area is properly measured.

Although line markings have been used for many years, local councils are now looking to install more durable, reflective and efficient road markings. Thermoplastic is also easy to mould into different shapes and lines, which is done at our headquarters rather than onsite.

Thermoplastic markings can also be installed extremely easily, with the area available for use within 30 minutes of application. This minimal disruption is another reason why thermoplastic markings are quickly becoming the favoured option for large highway projects with numerous different types of road markings.

Overall our clients find that working with thermoplastic highway markings provide more reliability and efficiency in terms of the quality of the markings and the installation process.
