• Public awareness.

Preform Street graphics-Warning Symbols are available in standardised text and symbols custom made to suit your individual needs.

Traffic Calming Markings are a range of preform Thermoplastic Pavement markings engineered to satisfy the emerging needs for identification, skid resistance, day and night conspicuity, life cycle durability and cost effectiveness.
While many approaches to the problem of traffic calming have included approached such as additional laws, narrower lanes and reduced speed limits which have an effect, the speed hump has proven to be the most effective and positive solution to the problem.
Traffic Calming Marking include piano keys for Type 1 and Flat Top Humps and line marking for Type 2 Humps.
Traffic Calming Marking are ideal for rumble strips to warn and physically aid traffic to slow down as they approach a dangerous corner or intersection.
The Rumble Strips are available in various thicknesses and colour to suit your individual needs.

Water Authority Products: Road marking products provides the Water Utilities with a long life product with high retro reflectivity to locate and identify Assets such as fire hydrants and valves in the roadways.
Since the symbols are large, flat and normally used in conjunction with Raised Pavement Markers (RPM’s) the AWIS Preform system provides the Emergency Maintenance and Fire Crews with a highly visible method to aid identify points of fire hydrants in Roadways.
In addition, this road marking technique enables Water Utilities to differentiate and classify different types of valves and hydrants they have in their distribution systems, enabling them to easily identify, log and service.
AWIS PREFORM can provide a variety of coloured preform to easily identify Reticulation, Distribution, Shut valves and recycled water.

Educational Package: A collection of Numbers, Letters, Symbols, Shapes, footprints, Lines and Games i.e. (Bike Tracks, Hop Scotch), We are not limited to just these as we are the manufacturer we can design and produce other items not mentioned..

PROPERTIES

Skid Resistance
Preform provides increased skid resistance and reduces perceived trip or slip hazards normally associated with thicker, durable marking systems applied to roads, footpaths or cross-walks, while maintaining the retro-reflective and life cycle performance associated with thermoplastic systems. Quartz beads contained in the mix provide added skid resistance.

High Optics
Preform is impregnated with high-index glass beads, designed to enhance the motorist’s ability to recognise, especially at night, a “shared use path” on roadway edges. Preform is engineered to match the durability of other pavement markings but with the added features of increased retro-reflectivity and visibility. Application of additional bead/grit mix can be made during application to further enhance retro reflectivity and anti skid resistance.

Application
AWIS Preform Markings are easy to affix. Application can be carried out by just a crew of two, using a high performance LP gas torch.

Prior to application road surfaces should be dry, clean and free from dust.

When properly applied, no further maintenance to the road-marking is required — so your road-marking crews are not repeatedly exposed to dangerous traffic.

ORDERING INFORMATION
Preform is packaged in eco-friendly cardboard boxes. The standard product range is available.

Keys for Successful Application

• Prior to application check that the correct Symbol, Legend or Arrow has been selected.
• The pavement marking should provide the desired Skid Resistance to ensure a safe ride,
• Make sure the Preform marking is placed in a position that will guarantee its optimum night-time visibility.
