Airfield Line Marking

With vast experience and a reputation as the market leader, Jointline’s line marking services are sought after by airports, airfields, and military bases across the world.

Line marking is more than a mere aesthetic feature; it is an essential element of airfield infrastructure. From delineating full runway markings to taxiway markings, and identifying potential hazards, Jointline’s expertise covers a broad spectrum. The company’s experienced and security cleared staff, equipped with state-of-the-art technology, are adept at implementing surface markings that comply with stringent regulations, including EASA, CAP168, and MADS.

Jointline’s line marking approach is distinguished by its superior quality, achieved through a unique combination of aggregates. This combination ensures high friction values, ranging between .65 and .8, as measured by a grip tester. Such precision brings the markings into alignment with the surrounding runway surfaces, enhancing safety and functionality.

The company specialises in using single pack epoxy and chlorinated rubber materials in conjunction with calcined flint. This innovation enhances the friction values of the markings and offers a significant advantage over traditional line marking materials such as thermoplastic. The chosen materials present a much lower risk in the prevention of foreign object debris (FOD), a critical consideration in airfield safety.

Investment in cutting-edge equipment enables Jointline to apply large volumes of material within restricted windows of opportunity. This capability is vital in the fast-paced environment of airfields, where timely implementation is often required.

In addition to line marking, Jointline also offers line marking removal services. Recognising that airfields often undergo layout changes or require updates to existing markings, Jointline has developed a range of removal techniques that comply with necessary legislation. These techniques are carefully selected to ensure that the integrity of the underlying surface is maintained, and the removal process is conducted efficiently and safely leaving no debris and avoiding costly FOD.

Jointline’s commitment to quality and innovation extends to its line marking removal services. The company invests heavily in the most up-to-date equipment and techniques, ensuring that removal is carried out with precision and in accordance with the latest industry standards.
