BS 3262 Thermoplastic Road Marking Paint
MATESTAR supplies BS 3262-type thermoplastic road marking paint for road projects requiring hot-applied reflective road markings. The material is suitable for white and yellow thermoplastic line marking by screed or spray application, including center lines, edge lines, pedestrian crossings, stop lines, arrows and other road line markings.
Our thermoplastic road marking paint can be formulated according to project specifications, including binder resin content, titanium dioxide, premixed glass beads, softening point, luminance factor, flow resistance, skid resistance and application method. TDS, SDS, sample support and OEM 25kg bag packing are available for contractors, importers and tender suppliers.
What is B23262 Thermoplastic Road Marking Paint?
BS 3262 thermoplastic road marking paint refers to a hot-applied thermoplastic road marking material used for white, yellow and black road markings. After being melted, the material is applied to the road surface by screed or spray equipment to form a thin overlay marking layer for center lines, edge lines, pedestrian crossings and other road line markings.
A BS 3262-type thermoplastic paint is typically made from aggregates, pigments, extender pigments, thermoplastic binder resin and glass beads for road marking. The glass beads help improve the visibility and retroreflectivity of road markings, especially for reflectorized markings used at night.
Key Features of BS 3262 Thermoplastic Road Marking Paint
Hot-Applied Thermoplastic Material：
Designed for screed or spray application after melting, suitable for center lines, edge lines, pedestrian crossings and traffic symbols.
Reflectorized Road Markings：
Premixed and drop-on glass beads can be used to improve nighttime retroreflectivity for reflective road markings.
Binder Resin System：
The binder resin provides adhesion to the road surface and cohesion between aggregates, pigments, fillers and glass beads.
White & Yellow Road Marking Paint：
Available for white and yellow thermoplastic road marking projects, with titanium dioxide used in white materials to support brightness.
Project-Based Formula Adjustment：
Formula can be adjusted for softening point, luminance factor, flow resistance, skid resistance, climate and traffic conditions.
Tender and Project Support：
TDS, SDS,sample support and OEM packing are available for contractors, importers and tender suppliers.
Main Uses Of BS 3262 Thermoplastic Road Marking Paint
Highways & Expressways
Long-life center/edge lines, lane arrows, and rumble/profiled markings under heavy traffic. Typical film thickness 2.0–3.0 mm; drop-on glass beads 250–400 g/m² (RI ≥1.5), with high-brightness beads for elevated RL at night and in wet conditions.
Urban & Municipal Roads
Crosswalks, stop lines, turn arrows, bus/bike lanes, and symbols where rapid reopening is critical. Fast no-pick-up time (~2–4 min) minimizes congestion; use primer on concrete and consider anti-skid aggregates where higher BPN is required.
Airports & Ports (Roadways & Aprons where permitted)
High-visibility guidance on landside roads, aprons, and cargo areas exposed to UV, oils, fuel drips, salt spray, and intensive service traffic. Specify bead systems for sustained retroreflectivity and confirm local airfield/port specifications before use.
Parking Lots & School Zones
Stall lines, ADA/access markings, speed humps, zebra crossings, and directional symbols. Cost-effective thickness 1.5–2.0 mm with drop-on beads for nighttime visibility; primer recommended on concrete substrates.
