Radium Paint for Crash Barrier

Radium Paint for Crash Barriers is an advanced photoluminescent coating developed to enhance road safety by ensuring high visibility of roadside crash barriers during night and low-light conditions. Most road accidents occur at night due to poor visibility of barriers at curves, flyovers, and highways. Traditional reflective paints are only visible when vehicle headlights directly fall on them. In contrast, our radium paint absorbs natural sunlight or artificial light during the day and glows brightly in the dark, offering round-the-clock visibility.

Crash barriers are critical safety devices designed to reduce impact severity during accidents, but if they are not visible, their effectiveness is compromised. Radium Paint provides clear night visibility of barriers from a distance of up to one kilometer, helping drivers identify road boundaries and obstructions well in advance. This makes driving safer even when headlights malfunction or visibility is poor due to fog, rain, or dust.

• High-Intensity Glow: Provides bright luminescence without electricity.

• Headlight-Independent: Visible even if headlights are dim or not working.

• Cost-Effective Alternative: Reduces dependency on reflective sheets and streetlights.

• Weather & Impact Resistant: Withstands harsh outdoor conditions and heavy traffic exposure.

• Long-Term Durability: Effective for 5+ years with no energy or maintenance cost.

• Eco-Friendly Solution: Requires no power, batteries, or generators.

• Crash barriers on highways and expressways

• Flyovers, bridges, and tunnels

• Accident-prone curves and sharp bends

• Mountain roads and rural highways

• Construction zones and temporary safety barriers

In 2023, a 7 km stretch of NH-48 near Bharuch, Gujarat, faced repeated accidents due to low visibility of crash barriers on curves. Authorities applied Radium Paint for Crash Barriers across the section.

• Result: Accident frequency at night dropped by 45% within 4 months.

• Driver Feedback: Drivers reported that barriers were visible even in foggy and rainy nights, allowing more reaction time.

• Savings: The project saved costs compared to installing additional streetlights or reflective signage, with zero energy expenditure.

This project proved that Radium Paint is not just a coating but a life-saving technology, offering a sustainable and economical solution for road safety.
