Advantages: Improves skid resistance, reduces braking distances, and significantly lowers accident risks. Application Areas: Ideal for junctions, roundabouts, and other high-risk zones. Road Marking
HFS – High Friction Surface offers key benefits including.
mproved Safety: HFS significantly mitigates the risk of skidding, particularly on wet or slippery roads, reducing the likelihood of accidents, especially in adverse weather conditions.
This innovative treatment has been shown to reduce skid-related accidents by over 50%, saving both lives and costs associated with road accidents.
Enhanced Vehicle Control: The increased friction provided by HFS allows drivers to maintain better control over their vehicles, especially during braking or cornering maneuvers, reducing the chances of losing control.
Reduced Stopping Distances: The improved traction helps vehicles stop more quickly and effectively, reducing stopping distances and mitigating the severity of potential collisions.
Enhanced Performance for Vulnerable Road Users: HFS can be particularly beneficial for vulnerable road users such as cyclists and pedestrians, as it reduces the risk of slips and falls, especially at intersections or pedestrian crossings.
Long-Term Durability: When properly applied and maintained, HFS treatments can provide long-lasting benefits, helping to maintain road safety and performance over an extended period.
To ensure the effectiveness and longevity of HFS, it’s crucial to consider:
Regular Maintenance: Routine maintenance, including cleaning and reapplication of materials as needed, is essential to preserve its effectiveness over time.
HFS is not just about safety; it also offers aesthetic flexibility with a variety of available colors.
This allows for visual demarcation of specific areas, improving navigational clarity and enhancing the overall usability of roadways. The applications of our high friction surfacing are diverse, ranging from high-stress traffic locations like roundabouts and junctions to heavily trafficked roads, ensuring durability and exceptional performance under various conditions.
