Retroreflective Testing of Signboards & Thermoplastic Road Markings
Testing of signboards and thermoplastic road marking materials: luminance, skid resistance and glass beads.
Overview
Retroreflective Testing at SRGPL
Thermoplastic road marking material testing examines the materials used for road markings to confirm their quality, durability and compliance with standards. Thermoplastic markings are widely used for pavement striping and road signage because they last long and stay visible.
Retroreflective testing covers surfaces designed to reflect light back to its source. From traffic signs and safety gear to outdoor recreational products, retroreflective surfaces improve visibility and reduce accidents in low light.
