LINE MARKING
IMPORTANCE OF LINE MARKINGS
Traffic Guidance and Flow: line markings serve as silent conductors of traffic, directing vehicles along the safest and most efficient routes.
Safety Enhancement: Road line markings play a crucial role in enhancing safety, significantly reducing the risk of accidents and improving overall safety.
Communication and Information: Without the need for words, line markings effectively communicate essential information to drivers, ensuring smooth and informed navigation.
​
Our adherence to high standards of application training and safety protocols has earned us the trust of local governments and communities. Whether it's marking airfields, sports courts, highways, or car parks, our operatives deliver line marking solutions that prioritise optimal durability, and safety.
We customise our approach based on surface conditions, climate variations, and traffic volume to ensure each project meets its specific requirements.
EPOXY LINE MARKING
We use a one part epoxy line marking paint that can be used for almost all applications. It is approved for use on airfields, but can also be used for applications such as, car parks, distribution centres and docks.

Benefits of using an epoxy solvent based paint...
​
-
Resistant to fuels and oils.
-
Hardwearing.
-
Airfield specification- no risk to airfield traffic.
-
Easily adheres to concrete and asphalt surfaces.
-
No heat is needed for applications.
-
cost-effective.
Airfield line markings in the UK must comply with international standards and regulations, particularly those set by the International Civil Aviation Organization (ICAO) and the Civil Aviation Authority (CAA). These standards dictate the specific dimensions, colors, and placement of markings.Epoxy line marking systems must also adhere to the relevant safety guidelines for airport operations to ensure pilots and ground crew can navigate safely.
Airfield Marking Requirements
CAA guidelines mirror those of ICAO, requiring all UK aerodromes to meet international standards for runway and taxiway markings. For example, the runway edge and centre line markings must be applied with high durability materials (such as epoxy-based paints) that can withstand the wear from aircraft touch downs and traffic.
Performance Standards
UK airfields must ensure that their markings are maintained to meet ICAO’s visibility standards. This includes ensuring that reflective materials and paints are used to maintain clear and visible markings for both day and night operations.CAA standards also ensure that markings remain visible in challenging conditions such as low light or during adverse weather conditions, ensuring that pilots can clearly identify boundaries and paths.
