Overview Premix Glass Beads for Traffic Paint
JIS R ***1 Premix Glass Beads, meeting the JIS R ***1
Japanese Standard, is blended into paint and
thermoplastics during the manufacturing stage. JIS R ***1
Premix Glass Beads are known as Premix glass beads. JIS R
***1 Premix Glass Beads have high longevity due to their
size. As the road marking paint wears over time due to
friction from tires and weathers, the premix glass beads
that are embedded into the paint are exposed which
ensures retro-reflectivity. This helps to increase the
longevity of the paint as well as the safety of
motorists. Glass beads are widely used in traffic paint
to enhance road safety by improving the visibility of
road markings, especially at night or in poor weather
conditions.

The Application of Reflective Beads for Traffic
Paint
â— Uses of glass beads for traffic paint
â—‹ Safety markings and Surfaces: Incorporated into road
paint to enhance nighttime visibility. The beads reflect
light from headlights, improving road safety.
â—‹ Durable Road Markings: Premix glass beads are highly
durable and can be reused multiple times in road marking
applications, reducing overall costs.
â—‹ Longitudinal Markings: High refractive index provides
excellent reflective properties, enhancing visibility in
road markings and other reflective applications.
â— Types of Road Markings
â—‹ Lane Lines and Edge Lines: Enhances visibility
of lane divisions and road edges.
â—‹ Crosswalks and Stop Lines: Improves the safety
of pedestrian crossings and stopping areas.
â—‹ Symbols and Arrows: Increases the clarity of
directional symbols and arrows on the road.
Benefits of Using Glass Beads in Traffic Paint
Enhanced Nighttime Visibility:
Retroreflectivity: Glass beads reflect light from vehicle
headlights back to the driver, significantly improving
the visibility of road markings at night.
Improved Safety: Better visibility of road markings helps
prevent accidents, especially in low-light conditions.
Durability:
Wear Resistance: Glass beads add durability to road
markings, making them more resistant to wear and tear
from traffic and weather.
Longevity: Road markings with glass beads tend to last
longer, reducing the frequency of reapplication and
maintenance.
Cost-Effectiveness:
Reduced Maintenance Costs: Longer-lasting road markings
lead to lower maintenance costs over time.
Efficient Application: The drop-on method is a quick and
efficient way to apply glass beads during road marking.
