Coloured surfacing for roads, footpaths, cycleways and carparks.
Coloured surfacing for roads and paths, available with or without anti-skid properties.
Coloured surfacing with high friction
Coloured surfacing that includes anti-skid properties. These products are made from pigmented calcined bauxite. Pigmentation is achieved using coloured resins, which is then applied to the bauxite either before or during the installation process.
Coloured surfacing using high friction standard components should be used predominantly where the highest PSV is the primary design consideration and the colour is secondary. An example of this is the use of red high friction surfacing on the approach to a pelican or zebra crossing. Coloured high friction surfacing is available from HMS with certification for any class of highway in the UK under the BBA (British Board of Agrément) standard. HMS is also a BBA ‘Approved Installer’ (Installer Number 5020). The performance of any surfacing product is enhanced when a coloured resin binder is used.
Coloured surfacing
This type of surfacing outperforms ‘Coloured High Friction Surfacing’ in colour retention, using high PSV naturally occurring coloured aggregates. These systems are the preferred choice where colour is the prime consideration and PSV is secondary. It not only minimises colour fade when in service, but due to the special texture of these resin systems, their SRV skid resistance is typically far higher than the SRV of normal asphalts and other bituminous surfacing which uses natural coloured aggregates.
