313 Geveko Markings is showing how it has addressed the situation in which road marking is not possible because surfaces are too moist or wet. With the company’s ViaTherm Viking, the application window for bulk thermoplastic is increased and the application season is prolonged.

ViaTherm Viking is a thermoplastic road marking material specially developed for application during early spring and late autumn when there tends to be moisture on the roads. It has special adhesion properties, high functional performance and long durability.

Applied like the company’s other bulk thermoplastic road marking materials, Geveko says the special formulation of ViaTherm Viking makes its adhesion to the road stronger over time, even if the initial adhesion is affected by moisture. As a result, the material can be applied even when there is light moisture on the asphalt.

ViaTherm Viking has been tested on Nordic road trials in Sweden and Denmark, producing good results for adhesion and functional performance.
