THERMOPLASTIC

ROAD MARKING
MATERIAL
AS PER EN 1871:2000(Oman)
CONTAINS NO HYDROCARBON RESIN

High performance road marking designed for

superior day and dry night visibility.
Brief Introduction:
Thermoplastic Road Marking Material is a
formulation of plasticized resin, aggregate,
pigment and glass beads supplied in dry powder
form, heated and applied to the road surface
where it cools and sets very quickly.
Automark Thermoplastic Road Marking
Material is manufactured under strict quality
control
parameters
specified
by
EN
1871:2000(oman) by our qualified team of
production and laboratory Professionals, by the
aid of modern computerized equipments.
The material consists of 100% solids and is
environment friendly as it is solvent free.
Thermoplastic road markings are generally more
superior and cost effective than paint markings
due to better durability, reflectivity, and visibility.
For special requirement in different contries like
Oman & Hong Kong, we formulate thermoplastic
material based on Alkyd resin (non C5
hydrocarbon resin).
Advantages of Automark Thermoplastic
Road Marking Material:

High performance (Day and Night) and long

lasting retro- reflectivity.

Fast drying, thus good flow resistance.

Excellent adhesion

High durability and Good Colour Stability

Good skid resistance

Good Whether Resistance

Non - toxic and environment friendly

Value for money with long lasting results

Use of Thermoplastic Road Marking Material may

reduce over 25% of accidents by improving the
performance of road markings.

Raod Performance:
Various Road Performance tests have been carried out confirming to BSEN 1436 for
parameters such as Retro reflection under vehicle head lamp in dry condition, Retro reflection
under vehicle head lamp in rain condition, Luminance Coefficient
Qd
under
diffuse
illumination,Luminance Factor for dry road marking. A seperate test certificate for having
carried out these tests locally may be issued an specific request.
Surface Preparation:
The surface should be dry, free from dust,
dirt, grease or oil & any other detritus
material.
The road surface temperature should be
above 5 C. Ideally existing markings
should be removed prior to application.
Thermoplastic Road Marking Material
may be applied over existing thermoplastic
markings provided that they are in a sound
condition & will not be easily removed from
the road surface.

Thermoplastic Road Marking Material

should not be applied over old paint
markings.
On worn bituminous and concrete surfaces,
a suitable tack coat primer should be used
in accordance with the manufacturers
instructions prior to application.
It should be noted that thermoplastic road
markings laid on new bituminos surfaces
could suffer from bitumen carry-over
leading to discolouration & masking of the
road markings.
