Road Marking Glass Beads
Tekno Glass Ltd. Şti. – A Stil Group Company
High-Quality Glass Beads for Road Marking and Industrial Applications
Operating under the Stil Group umbrella, Tekno Glass Ltd. Şti. is a leading manufacturer of premium-quality glass beads. Our production is categorized into two primary segments based on application:
1- Road Marking Glass Beads
Tekno Glass manufactures high-performance glass beads specifically engineered for road marking applications under the Reflectra® brand:
• Reflectra® MIX – Premix (Intermix) Glass Beads
Uncoated glass beads designed to be blended directly into road marking paint prior to application, enhancing visibility and durability.
• Reflectra® SKY – Drop-on Glass Beads
Silane- and silicone-coated glass beads applied on the surface of freshly painted road markings to ensure optimal retroreflectivity and performance in all weather conditions.
They are critical materials used to enhance road safety during night driving by providing retroreflective properties. Applied onto road marking paints, these micro-spheres refract and reflect the light from vehicle headlights directly back to the driver’s field of vision, making lane markings clearly visible in the dark and foggy weather conditions. By guiding drivers and preventing lane departures, this technology plays an indispensable role in reducing traffic accidents worldwide.
At the same time, these beads extend the lifespan of road markings by creating an extra layer of protection against friction and wear. Manufactured from high-quality glass with an ideal roundness ratio, these materials offer both an economic and long-lasting traffic management infrastructure. Thanks to their ability to maximize night visibility while enhancing the durability of road lines, they stand as one of the most fundamental elements of modern highway projects.
