The Department for Transport’s ‘Safety at Street Works and Road Works Act’ requires foot and road plates for use with temporary works to have an appropriate skid resistant surface – Rocbinda™ provides the ultimate solution.
Using 1-3mm calcined bauxite for maximum durability, and with bond strength to steel in excess of 150kg/cm², the system has been independently tested by the British Board of Agrément (BBA) where the results proved that when Rocbinda™ is applied directly to bituminous or concrete surfaces it can withstand up to 3,500 commercial vehicles per lane per day braking on it, with an expected lifespan of five to ten years. Rocbinda is also independently tested to BS 7976-2 Pendulum Floor Slip Testing achieving a figure of 102 PTV.
With all this provided from a coating approximately 5mm thick, Rocbinda™ is the ideal product to enable you to comply with government guidelines and maintain a reactive company profile. Our in-house service has the ability to inlay letters and shapes in various coloured aggregates to aid plate identification and enhance company image. Depending on the customer’s requirements, we can supply materials or, alternatively, offer a complete service to prepare and coat customers’ own plates.
