What is a high-visibility reflective marking?

Release time: 2020-03-31

Summary: True High-Visibility Road Markings ● Possess a certain level of stain resistance ● Maintain a retroreflective coefficient exceeding 450 mcd (in dry conditions—how could it be considered high-visibility if it doesn’t meet Class 4 reflectivity?) ● Exhibit an initial retroreflective coefficient greater than 600 mcd (in dry conditions) ● Offer clear and distinct visibility at night ● And feature road markings with sustained, high-visibility reflective performance— Only then can they be properly referred to as “High-Visibility Reflective Markings.”

True high-visibility markings

● Possesses certain anti-fouling properties

● The sustained retroreflective coefficient is greater than 450 mcd (in dry conditions—how can it be called high-gloss if it doesn’t meet Class 4 reflectivity standards!)

● Initial retroreflective coefficient greater than 600 mcd (dry state)

● Clear and distinct nighttime visibility

● Road reflective markings with sustained, high-visibility retroreflective performance

Generally referred to as — high-visibility reflective markings

 

Note: The new national standard GB/T16311 divides the reflectivity grades of pavement markings into 4 levels.

Class 1 reflectivity: 150–250 mcd

Class 2 reflectivity: 250–350 mcd

Class 3 Reflectivity: 350–450 mcd

Class 4 reflectivity: 450 mcd or higher

 

● Possesses certain anti-fouling properties

● Road markings are clearly visible on rainy nights.

● Initial retroreflective coefficient greater than 500 mcd (dry state)

● Initial retroreflective coefficient greater than 260 mcd (wet)

● Initial retroreflective coefficient greater than 150 mcd (continuous rainfall)

● Continuous retroreflective coefficient greater than 300 mcd (in dry condition during normal use)

● Continuous retroreflective coefficient greater than 160 mcd (during normal use, in humid conditions)

● Continuous retroreflective coefficient greater than 90 mcd (during normal use, under continuous rainfall)

● Road reflective markings with sustained, high-visibility retroreflective performance

Generally referred to as — High-visibility reflective markings for rainy nights
