The Benefits of Preformed Thermoplastic Markings

Hi-Lite Airfield Services is proud to offer airfield thermoplastic markings of superior quality and resilience. Our preformed thermoplastic markings provide numerous benefits, including:

• The clean, crisp appearance that speaks to its quality
• High-quality UV-resistant pigments for longevity against constant sunlight
• Seamless adaptation to pavement contours, guaranteeing a smooth finish
• Retroreflective glass beads are mixed in during manufacturing, ensuring sustained retro-reflectivity as the marking wears
• Resistance to aviation fuels, lubricants, and de-icers
• Swift reopening of areas to traffic in as little as 15 minutes post-application
• Durability lasting 8-10 paint cycles, making it highly cost-effective compared to standard re-striping
• FAA compliance for SPHPS, Hold Shorts, and various other Taxiway Directional Markings

Our expertise in preformed thermoplastic markings extends to various applications, including runway and taxiway markings, hold-short lines, enhanced taxiway centerlines, and geographic position markings. By leveraging the benefits of this advanced material, we help airports improve safety, reduce maintenance costs, and minimize operational disruptions.
