Barricades are the sturdy work horses on the road, helping traffic to avoid hazards and protecting roadway workers. That's why durability is critical - they need to endure the rigours of the roadway and the rough environment of frequent set-up and take-down yet maintain visibility performance for safety.

ORAFOL provides the hightest quality sheeting materials designed for ease of application and superior durability. Whether our more economical glass bead offering our our high performance prismatic sheeting, all of our products conform to EN 12899-1. ORAFOL products provide excellent adhesion to polyolefin substrates and are available with a preprinted chevron pattern.

Flexible signs, traffic cones and tubular posts have some of the toughest jobs on the road. Impact from morotists and the constant set-up, take-down and being tossed in the vehicle for the next job site make for rough conditions. All the while, they must maintain visibility in order to protect the life of that roadway worker doing his job just metres away.

That's why ORAFOL offers its ORALITE® line of high performance materials of all grades for applications including cone collars, tubular posts and flexible roll up signs. Materials are available to comply with EN 12899-1 and EN 13422, and feature the superior durrability, flexibility, abrasion resistance and lasting performance for which ORAFOL is known around the globe.

ORAFOL high visibility reflective markings for moveable containers and waste removal trucks were designed for high performance and durability - even when they're treated like garbage.

ORAFOL offers highly reflective products developed specifically for permanent and exchangeable containers on publc roads. The materials offer excellent corrosion, solvent and grime resistance. They withstand impact and are manufactured wtih an aggressive adhesive, formulated for painted surfaces and polyolefin substrates. The products within the ORALITE® Container Marking Grade include both prismatic and glass bead options. All products are EN 12899-1 compliant and BASt approved.

ORALITE® VC 104+ is the preferred choice by most fleets when it comes to conspicuity markings, due to the product construction which is just simply ideal for this application. The thin single layer construction means that there is no edge sealing needed, and no risk of any water or dirt ingress causing discolouration of the tape. It is easy to apply, and you can apply it over rivets very easily. Easy application means that your vehicle is quickly back on the road again - where it should be.

For ECE 104, the ORAFOL product range includes both marking tapes class C and graphics film class E. Other products within the vehicle range include reflective and fluorescent films for rear marker plates, license plate material, and truck flags.

Due to increased traffic volumes and the need to react to incidents quickly, it is vitally important to ensure that emergency service vehicles can be easily seen both night and day. Safety of police officers travelling to and from an incident, and at the scene of an incident, is also of paramount importance.

The retroreflective livery films from ORAFOL are highly visible at a distance of more than 500 metres away and greatly increase vehicle visibility during poor weather conditions such as rain and fog.

Our product range includes both glass bead and microprismatic materials in all grades.

Fluorescent colours ensure conspicuity during the day and at dusk and dawn. Most of the ORALITE® livery films do not need edge sealing, which allows quick turn-around times after damage repair. Eliminating the quality risks connected with edge sealing, they will maintain the aesthetics of the vehicle long after application.

The preferred choice for numerous police forces throughout Europe.
