Road markings disposed on a fixed road surface are disclosed including reflective material disposed on a first portion of the fixed road surface for improving light reflection and friction material disposed on a second portion of the fixed road surface for increasing the friction between the fixed road surface and the wheels of a vehicle, these two portions of the road surface being separate portions of the fixed road surface. Methods are also disclosed for disposing road markings on a fixed roa...

Surface coverings for marking road surfaces are disclosed including elastic particles for application to the road surface, the elastic particles including a plurality of light reflectors such as glass beads or ceramic particles, which can also include various pigments.

The invention relates to a fluorescing covering for roads, parking places, etc. which fluoresces when being illuminated with ultraviolet light. In addition to the fluorescing agent, the covering comprises a colouring pigment or a soluble colorant which filtrates the fluorescing light and dissipates only light having a desired wavelength. This colouring pigment or colorant also reflects light having a desired wavelength and absorbs light having a non-desired wavelength also from daylight or some ...

A marking for the creation of a luminant surface on a substrate (10) which surface is intended to be used as direction-, wearing- and/or side markings on roads, streets, quays or parking places and which surface is subjected to water and tire wearing from passing vehicles. The marking comprises a binder (11) which fluoresces by irradiation with UV-A-light. The surface of the marking have light permeable glass pearls (12) having a size of between 0.4 and 1.0 millimeter which are embedded to about...

The invention relates to a premanufactured covering which mainly consists of a thermoplastic material and which covering is intended for roads, parking areas, etc. The covering has reflective material, friction material or the like on the intended upward surface. The covering according to the invention is characterized in that the material includes a visible temperature indicator when being applied.

The present invention relates to a fluorescent covering for roads, parking areas and the like. The covering has a binder which fluoresces at the same energy as an organic optical whitener, thereby more uniformly dispersing energy and prolonging the life of the whitener.
