Road Markings

Keeping roads visible day and night, rain and shine.

The risk for traffic accidents is three times more likely in wet, rainy, dark conditions. In such an environment it doesn’t take long for road markings to lose their brightness as surface water negates their reflectivity, making already difficult driving all the more challenging.

Kariega Tar Projects’s designs keep road markings bright, even in rainy and dark conditions. Kariega Tar Projects’s range of all-weather markings provides superior reflective performance, under wet or dry conditions, compared to traditional road markings. Unique optical elements defy the normal effects of water and continue to provide high visibility for drivers even on dark, wet roads.

Traditional “exposed lens” marking systems have reflective beads on top of the marking. Many of these may perform fine in dry weather, but when they get wet the water interferes with the optics, causing headlight illumination to scatter rather than retro-reflect. The result is these road markings virtually disappear until the water drains or evaporates. Unlike such traditional markings, Kariega Tar Projects all weather road markings maintain their reflectivity, even in a downpour.

For situations requiring temporary road markings, our temporary road marking tapes provide the perfect solution for lane markings through road works. In addition to tapes that mark out new lines, we also supply a black tape to mask out the old lines, meaning that existing road markings can be quickly reinstated once the road works have been completed. The ease and speed of application and removal mean that road works can be completed and re-opened much more quickly.
