Matériau thermoplastique de marquage appliqué à chaud, fabriqué dans le cadre de formulation BS 3262 — la norme la plus souvent citée dans les appels d’offres d’influence britannique en Afrique, au Moyen-Orient et en Asie du Sud-Est. Disponible en blanc et en jaune, ajusté clause par clause à votre cahier des charges, avec fiche technique et échantillons gratuits avant tout engagement.
BS 3262 est un ensemble de trois parties, dont deux ont été retirées en 2000 — les projets modernes associent généralement son cadre de formulation à des clauses de performance EN, et nous formulons pour les deux. Les tableaux ci-dessous reprennent les exigences du texte original.
| Composition (% of total mixture) | Requirement |
|---|---|
| Binder (resin + oil) | 20 ± 2% |
| Premixed solid glass beads (when reflectorized) | ≥ 20% |
| Aggregate + pigment + filler + premix beads, combined | 80 ± 2% |
The premix beads sit inside the 80 ± 2% total. White pigment must be anatase or rutile titanium dioxide to BS 1851 — the standard fixes the type, not a minimum content. The combined solids must pass a 2.80 mm sieve completely, with 65–95% passing 600 µm.
| Property | White | Yellow |
|---|---|---|
| Softening point | ≥ 65°C | ≥ 65°C |
| Luminance factor, as manufactured | ≥ 70 | ≥ 50 |
| Luminance factor, remelted on site | ≥ 65 | ≥ 45 |
| Luminance factor after heat-stability test | ≥ 65 | ≥ 45 |
| Flow resistance (mean slump) | ≤ 25% | ≤ 25% |
| Laboratory skid resistance (pendulum) | ≥ 45 | ≥ 45 |
The heat-stability test stirs the material for six hours at 200°C or the declared maximum application temperature, whichever is lower. Luminance factor is a daytime whiteness figure — it is not the night-time retroreflectivity (RL) of EN 1436; if your tender sets an RL target, specify it separately and we formulate for it.
| Binder system | Method | Thickness (excl. drop-on beads) |
|---|---|---|
| Synthetic resin | Screed | 2.0 – 5.0 mm |
| Spray (except yellow edge lines) | ≥ 1.5 mm | |
| Extrusion | 2.5 – 3.5 mm | |
| Gum / wood rosin | Screed | 3.0 – 5.0 mm |
| Spray (except yellow edge lines) | ≥ 2.0 mm | |
| Extrusion | 4.0 – 5.0 mm |
Lay on a dry surface above 5°C; concrete and polished-aggregate asphalt need a compatible primer. Line width tolerance is +10% / −5% of the specified width.
Ce que la norme BS 3262 exige réellement — et ce qu’elle n’exige pas
SEPT CLAUSES COURANTES DANS LES APPELS D’OFFRES NE FIGURENT PAS DANS LE TEXTE DE LA NORME. NOS INGÉNIEURS DÉCOMPOSENT LE TEXTE ORIGINAL, TABLEAU PAR TABLEAU.


Yes — free samples of 1–2 kg for any product. Whatever you pay for the sample and its freight is credited in full against your next purchase. Email info@pztraffic.com with the products and standards you need.
Yes. Clauses like softening point ≥ 95°C, TiO₂ ≥ 10% or an initial RL figure are project add-ons, not part of the standard’s original text — so they must be stated explicitly. Send us the tender clause and we formulate against it, answering with a datasheet that covers every line.
Yes, both forms. Premix beads can be built into the material at the plant — our 20% mixed glass beads variant matches the standard’s reflectorized formulation — and drop-on beads (BS 6088B, AASHTO M247 types) ship alongside the paint in the same container.
We can provide EXW, FOB, CIF services, etc.
