Thermoplastic Striping
Thermoplastic paint is the industry standard for roadway marking materials. It is widely used on municipal and commercial roads due to its longevity and quality.
Thermoplastic consists of powdered pigments, binders and glass beads that become liquid when heated to 400 degrees. Once heated, the thermoplastic is poured into applicators and is applied to the roadway. Embedded glass beads reflect light, ensuring that the roadway striping is visible at night. Once applied, a surface treated with thermoplastic paint can be ready within a day, minimizing road closures for businesses and municipalities.
At Southern Asphalt Engineering, we use industry-standard thermoplastic paints and beads and apply them at the manufacturer’s recommended application rate or above. Our materials meet or exceed the Florida Department of Transportation’s requirements for approved paints and glass beads.
Roadway Striping
How often does roadway striping need to be re-striped?
Stripping usually needs to be repaired every three years, however, with the thermoplastic striping SAE uses repairs and maintenance only needs to be done every two years. The amount of traffic and weather conditions can also impact how easily the striping fades.
