Regulatory Markings › Traffic paint Ennis-Flint manufacture a full line of traffic paints in both waterborne and solvent-based formulations, engineered to meet your specification. Formulated for streets and motorways to parking lots, waterborne traffic paints are suitable for asphalt, chipseal and concrete substrates. These can be sprayed with airless or conventional spray equipment. Solvent-based traffic paints are co-polymer based and are ideal for colder ambient conditions where waterborne may not be deployed. › Hot Applied Thermoplastic › Preformed Thermoplastic Thermoplastic pavement marking material Ennis-Flint manufacture a complete range of is a 100% solid compound containing glass durable pre-formed thermoplastic products beads, pigments, binder and filler which engineered for optimal performance, lasting becomes liquid when heated. value and to maximise your pavement In liquid form, the thermoplastic may be marking program. applied using standard industry applicators, Ideal for transverse markings and inter- including hand-liners and truck-mounted section applications, Ennis- Flint Preform is equipment. formulated with the highest quality resin, Intermixed and drop-on glass beads provide binder, aggregate, glass bead, and pigment retro-reflectivity for night-time visibility systems, ensuring consistent thickness and of pavement markings. composition to meet specifications.

Coloured Markings Ennis-Flint offers several product technologies, in a variety of colours, to promote clear under- standing of a dedicated-lane’s purpose to shared-roadway users as well as decorative trafficscapes. Unique in application and performance, these technologies are ideal for streetscape and lane treatment projects where shared roadway safety and aesthetic appeal must work in conjunction. › Preferential-lane colour treatments These treatments increase the lane’s visibility, identify potential conflict areas and promote the dedicated lane’s purpose to shared-roadway users (commonly cycleways, bus lanes and pedestrian shared walkways). Materials applied over large-area markings must be formulated to expand and contract with the substrate and changing temperatures, otherwise they can crack or delaminate from the surface. Longlife Cold Applied Plastics are an ideal choice and combine state-of-the-art methyl methacrylate (MMA) resin compound with hardwearing aggregates and premium pigments. This extremely durable, highly visible and colour stable lane delineation treatment can be specified to meet the non-slip requirements for New Zealand and Australian roads. › TrafficScapes TrafficScapes products include Preform Thermoplastic and coloured area markings. These products are engineered for durability, safety and aesthetics. TrafficScapes products are designed to: • improve safety, especially at intersections and multi-use paths • enhance visibility for pedestrians, motorists and cyclists • channel pedestrians across busy commercial parking areas • promote and/or revitalise community image. 10
