FUNCTION

MAGMAPLE BS6088 standard glass beads are a major factor in increasing road safety in a very economical way. Thanks to the beads’ retroreflective action at night, a vehicle’s headlight beam is returned to the driver’s eye, which results in a “light-up”effect of the striping. The micro spheres not only multiply the visibility of road markings at night, but also increase the striping’s durability in general. MAGMAPLE BS6088 glass beads are used as drop-on agent and as premix beads for road marking materials.
