Geveko Markings has introduced Thermo Primer, an improved one component primer replacing PREMARK Primer. The company said that Thermo Primer secures strong bonding between thermoplastic markings and surfaces with little or no bitumen. With the Thermo Primer you get faster drying time of the primer, so the application of the markings can be finished faster. The 4litre tin is also more easily opened. Also, Thermo Primer will be available in 20litre cans soon. From an environmental perspective, the GHS09

2447 Geveko Markings has introduced Thermo Primer, an improved one component primer replacing PREMARK Primer.

The company said that Thermo Primer secures strong bonding between thermoplastic markings and surfaces with little or no bitumen. With the Thermo Primer you get faster drying time of the primer, so the application of the markings can be finished faster. The 4litre tin is also more easily opened. Also, Thermo Primer will be available in 20litre cans soon. From an environmental perspective, the GHS09: Environmental Hazard and the GHS08: Health Hazard are not on the Thermo Primer due to the improved formulation, noted the company.

  • Are drones homing in on road construction?
    August 4, 2015
    It may be early days for using drones – unmanned aerial systems (UAS) -- to map construction sites, but technology and legislation are moving in that direction. At the moment drones can fly within only a 500m radius of the ‘pilot’ standing on the ground, making the flight area a 1km diameter. This is the key limiting issue for any sector, especially road construction, says Jonathan Gill, a robotics engineer and a qualified drone pilot for the past seven years. The logic is that a drone remains withi
