Make sure you toe the legal line... April 27th 2009 Marking clear routes for pedestrians and vehicular traffic is a legal requirement. The Workplace (Health, Safety and Welfare) Regulations require factory owners and property operators to ensure that …’traffic routes are suitably indicated.’
The principal reason for marking traffic routes is to ensure the safety of workers and visitors to your site. Marking clear aisles and gangways ensures that pedestrians are kept separate from moving fork-lift trucks and other vehicular traffic.
Although quite simple, much of the cost of painting a line on a factory, warehouse or distribution depot floor is tied up in labour and down-time. The more durable the line, the less frequent is the need for repainting – saving time and money.
Easyline Edge launched by ROCOL in 2008 is a highly durable traffic-grade epoxy line marking system suitable for marking factory floors, car parks, stores and warehouses.
In fact, Easyline® Edge is the most durable aerosol line marking system money can buy. In tests, our paint lasted over 2˝ times longer that the best competitor. Easyline is available in ten bright colours which match the RAL colours designated for traffic markings. Easyline also boasts unrivalled colour retention in prolonged exposure to UV light. Again, this reduces the need for frequent over painting when lines are marked outside.
