Road Scene Playground Marking (10000mm x 7000mm) | Preformed Thermoplasic

This road scene playground marking is one of the few scenery markings we have in our range. This marking allows children to let their imagination run free with establishments like schools, shops and petrol stations embedded within the marking.

Made from the same material used on motorways and roads, these markings will stay intact and looking new as they will be under minimal stress compared to the strain of motorways.

With this marking being so detailed, it is perfect for young children to understand and use as they can grasp an understanding of how the world works and job roles whilst using their imagination to play and have honest fun.

If a road scene is not quite the type of marking you require, click here for our full range. We have many different markings available with similar themes or even educational markings if you’re looking for a more informative style.

Key Features Of Our Thermoplastic Playground Markings

• Exceptionally Durable - The base material is adapted from markings used on public roads so it is very hard-wearing.
• Easy to Apply - Requires no artistic or special skill to apply, only a gas burner. Markings are supplied in pre-cut sections.
• Vibrant Colours - Colours are vivid and will not fade or wear through.
• Great Traction - Embedded beads enhance traction reducing slip risks.

Applying our playground markings is very easy. Firstly the area must be cleaned of all loose debris, oil, grease and salts. Once this is done you are ready to get going. If your chosen surface is old tarmac, concrete or block paving then you will need to use our fast-drying primer.

Once you have fully prepped the surface the marking can be set out. Once you are happy with the marking positioning a gas burner can be used to melt the marking to the tarmac surface. For additional traction glass bead can be sprinkled over the surface, this is fused into the marking with the further application of heat.

It is important to ensure that the whole marking is melted fully to the point that it looks like cheese on toast and follows the contours of the substrate beneath. Failure to do this may mean the marking will lift. Once heated the marking cannot be re-heated as it will have oxidised and set.

Thermoplastic On Block Paving

Thermoplastic on block paving is known to be more difficult to apply and has a substantially shorter lifetime than on bituminous surfaces, such as tarmac.

Block paving is not a solid structure. Most of the time, they are put down and sand is added into the grooves, so over time when moisture creeps in as well as moss, movement can be made within 2 blocks, making the material crack and fail.
