The Problem
Safer Roads Start Here
Skid-related crashes at crosswalks, intersections, and speed tables cost lives and taxpayer dollars every day. Faded paint and worn pavement lose friction exactly where drivers and pedestrians need them most — at night, in the rain, and in the moments that matter.
ROADWAY SAFETY STRIP™ DRAMATICALLY INCREASES SURFACE FRICTION — RIGHT WHERE HAZARDS HAPPEN.
- Bauxite aggregate delivers superior skid resistance
- Installs in hours, not days — no full pavement rehab
Key Benefits
Engineered for the moments that matter.
Superior Skid Resistance
Aggregate-embedded surface delivers exceptional friction on wet and dry pavement.
Durable Performance
Built to withstand traffic loads, temperature swings, and years of exposure.
Rapid Installation
Deploy in hours with standard crew equipment — minimal lane closures.
Cost-Effective Upgrade
A fraction of full pavement replacement — protect what you already have.
Developed, Tested, and Validated by NCAT
Developed, tested, and validated by Auburn University's National Center for Asphalt Technology.
Proven Applications
Where every foot of friction counts.
Intersection Approaches
Shortens stopping distances and helps prevent rear-end and angle collisions.
Interchange Ramps & Exits
Improves control during braking, acceleration, and merging maneuvers.
Steep Grades & Downhill Sections
Provides reliable traction for safer braking on inclines and descents.
Bridge Decks & Approaches
Boosts friction on often-polished or wet surfaces, durable option for high-traffic bridges.
Roundabouts & Traffic Circles
Maintains consistent grip through curves and braking zones for smoother, safer flow.
Technical Specifications
Built to spec. Backed by research.
Roadway Safety Strip™ meets the demands of DOT engineers, municipal planners, and pavement contractors. Standard and custom configurations available.

How It Works
Installed in hours. Engineered for years.
- 01Prepare the surface
Clean and dry the asphalt or concrete substrate.
- 02Position the strip
Lay Roadway Safety Strip™ per project layout — no complex tooling.
- 03Bond & torch-apply
Activate adhesive layer for a permanent, load-ready bond.
- 04Open to traffic
Return the lane to service in a fraction of the time.
Field Voices
Trusted by the people who build safer roads.
"The friction gain in wet conditions was immediately noticeable. This is the kind of upgrade our crews can install in a shift."
DOT Field Engineer
Municipal Pilot Program
"NCAT-developed, real-world proven. Roadway Safety Strip™ gives us a credible answer for high-conflict crosswalks."
Pavement Consultant
Transportation Planning
"Cost-effective compared to full pavement replacement, and the added grip on wet approaches speaks for itself."
