The new thermoplastic profiled marking has been developed for having high visibility at night time and during rainy conditions and at the same time have a similar noise level to a flat line.

The Danish Road Directorate in collaboration with Geveko Markings, Eurostar, Borum and other partners have been working together to develop a new type of thermoplastic line marking. The need for a new type of marking comes after complaints from Danish locals in regards to the noise level made by profiled markings found in their vicinity.
Therefore, the challenge was to develop a new line marking that has high visibility at night time and during rainy conditions and at the same time does not produce as much noise.
