Glass beads traffic safety

Glass beads perform an important function of traffic safety because of their retro-reflective properties. This property allows the motorist to clearly see the pavement line markings more clearly at night and in wet conditions. When a car's headlight beam shines on a pavement marking that is integrated-embedded-saturated with glass beads, the line stripes light up and become much easier to see at night. This effect is called retro-reflection. Paints that have glass beads in them have enhanced night-time reflectivity, higher visibility and safety for the driver.

Glass beads are sold by the 25kgs bags or pallet quantity. traffic marking paint. Glass Beads can be dropped onto many different kinds of non-reflective paints to make them reflective.

Glass beads provide the reflectivity in such products as traffic paint, signs and pavement marking tape. All glass beads are manufactured exclusively from recycled glass products like bottles and windshields. Increased safety in night driving is achieved through the use of tiny glass beads embedded in paint. When millions of these tiny reflective spheres are embedded in highway markings, they shine brightly under headlights, making the marking many times more visible at night than the same markings without reflectorization.

Increase safety and nighttime visibility
Increase paint life
Reduces drying time, tracking and traffic tie-ups
Application is easy and can usually be accomplished with standard highway marking equipment.

REFLECTIVE GLASS BEADS – drop on / premix beads

For the visibility of road markings reflective glass beads are a major component. Together with the marking material the reflective glass beads constitute the retroreflecting system. The micro glass beads embedded in the marking material reflect the headlight of the car, hence the marking lights up at night. This [lighting up" – retroreflection – makes the road marking better visible for the driver and is thus an important and crucial factor for road safety.

Reflective glass beads as drop on or premix beads:

increase road safety through better visibility at night as well as in particularly bad weather conditions, like fog or rain. improve the life span and the durability of the road marking due to their hardness are a particularly economical factor for traffic guidance and road safety

blyglassbeads one of China reflective glass beads factory can offer a wide range of products and reflective glass beads with refractive indices ranging from ≥ 1.5 to 1.9. In addition it is guaranteed that impurities (e.g. iron) are minimized and/or heavy metal contents.

The production of all reflective glass beads confirms to national and international standards (BS6088, EN 1423, EN 1424, AASHTO, etc.).

Individual customer requests are possible with any type of reflective glass beads.
