Every single day, around 30,000,000 vehicles swarm the roads of the UK. Without carefully planned and maintained infrastructure, this would lead to pure chaos! Local authorities thus have a heavy obligation to keep roads well marked and easy to use, so that motorists are kept safe while going about their daily travels. Entire Surface Solutions Ltd, popular in Twickenham and its surrounds, lay reflective, anti-skid road markings that ensure roads are 100% fit for purpose.

But it isn’t just road markings that we lay for clients in and around Twickenham. Our thermoplastic line marking techniques are ideal for playground markings, and similar projects where long-lasting, hyper visible marks are required to safeguard end users and create productive, well organised interior/exterior spaces. We also use alternative methods, where thermoplastic line marking techniques are not suitable, to handle all line painting requirements.

Below, we’ve elaborated on the health and safety side of things – but if you’re more interested in discussing an upcoming or ongoing project with our team, or asking a question about how our thermoplastic line marking can address requirements ranging from playground markings to road markings, call our team on 01883 620 042 or 07775 658 273.

Why What We Do is so important…

Far more than simply an aesthetic means of dressing up a surface, line marking and line painting guides users of roads, playgrounds, sports fields, factories, warehouses and all sorts of other spaces. Carefully positioned and highly visible thermoplastic line marking can significantly help reduce accidents in many of these spaces – when employed as road markings, accidents have fallen by as much as 50% in some areas of the country! So it’s easy to see why a busy area like Twickenham, which receives a lot of through traffic, can massively benefit from our services. You alert motorists to important items such as speed limits, upcoming crossings, and where to look!

Thermoplastic line marking, when employed for setting down playground markings, also reduce accidents at schools and public parks in Twickenham and its surrounds. Firstly, by organising areas of play and setting out boundaries – assisting with children’s spatial awareness and structuring the way they play. Secondly, due to their anti-slip qualities previously mentioned. While children are rambunctious and playground markings will never completely prevent the minor, every day spills that Twickenham school staff will attest to being a common occurrence – they will reduce the frequency and severity of said spills.

Enhancing Visibility, Recuing Slips & Skids

When driving or cycling in very dark conditions, or during heavy rain, it can get very difficult to see the road in front of you. The resin used for thermoplastic line marking contains glass beads which massively boost visibility from headlights and bike lights. On top of this, due to their depth, should a car begin to accidentally drift into another lane, motorists can feel and hear this happening and adjust their steering.

Speaking of the rain, many Twickenham clients choose us to handle their road markings due to the aforementioned anti-slip and anti-skid traits present in our road markings. This can help prevent accidents both at low and high speeds. Beyond these bonuses, due to the material and application process employed, line painting and line markings inform both motorists and pedestrians of how to safely use and navigate or cross roads – and this is helpful beyond words!
