MARKING PRODUCTS & SYSTEMS FROM GERMANY S LEADING MANUFACTURER AIRPORT MARKINGS Markings on airports are a very economical contribution to the safety and orientation on airports, not only for planes

RETROREFLECTION: Our systems offer excellent retroreflection and night visibility on dry and wet surfaces due to innovative and clean SWARCO glass s (various particle sizes, low and high index).

The resulting marking symbols and lines appear much more vivid and rich in contrast.

ABRASION RESISTANCE: By choosing the right solutions from our wide range of products, complemented by various glass s, excellent functionality and abrasion resistance of marking systems on airfields

3 MARKING PRODUCTS & SYSTEMS FROM GERMANY S LEADING MANUFACTURER AIRPORT MARKINGS Markings on airports are a very economical contribution to the safety and orientation on airports, not only for planes on taxiways and runways but also for ground traffic vehicles. RETROREFLECTION: Our systems offer excellent retroreflection and night visibility on dry and wet surfaces due to innovative and clean SWARCO glass s (various particle sizes, low and high index). INNOVATION - MORE CONTRAST: Coloured granular glass can be added to our marking systems as needed to adjust the shade of colour. The resulting marking symbols and lines appear much more vivid and rich in contrast. DURABILITY: Our products have been successfully tested by independent bodies for resistance against fuels, deicers, engine oils and hydraulic fluids and excel in their resistance to kerosene. ABRASION RESISTANCE: By choosing the right solutions from our wide range of products, complemented by various glass s, excellent functionality and abrasion resistance of marking systems on airfields and runways, taxiways and aprons is guaranteed. SURFACE BONDING: Apart from their stipulated product-specific characteristics, markings need to have sufficient adherence to the surface to avoid engine ingestion of loose marking material. The right choice for an optimum and economical marking system for the different areas depends on airport specifications and other prerequisites. CERTIFIED: Our marking systems have been tested and approved by the German Federal Institute for Material Research and Testing in regard to colour standards according to DIN 5033, assessment according to ICAO Annex 14 Aerodromes and STANAG IN ADDITION TO OUR AIRPORT MARKINGS WE OFFER A WIDE RANGE OF PRODUCTS FOR... n road marking n markings for car parks n the marking of safety areas and safety guidance systems in repair shops and aircraft hangars
