Decorative Markings

Decorative markings and decorative surfaces can be used to visually improve the appearance of any public or private space including roads, car parks, paths, cycleways, school playgrounds and private businesses. Most commonly, decorative markings are used to brighten up dull urban areas or to bring artwork to life in public spaces.

We provide a wide variety of decorative surfacing and decorative marking solutions throughout the UK. The majority of our decorative marking solutions are available in any bespoke colour so we can tailor the markings and design to suit your requirements.

A number of different materials can be used depending on the surface and intended use of the area - these include pre-formed thermoplastic, thermoplastic screed, epoxy/acrylic anti-slip paints, hot-applied anti-skid surfacing, cold-applied MMA anti-skid surfacing and many others.

We've been established since 1988 and are highly experienced in the use of these specialist materials so we can offer advice on which solution will be the most suitable for your project and we can adjust designs and specifications to suit your budget.

All the decorative markings we offer come with anti-slip properties to ensure that they are safe to walk or play on. With our experience in the road marking industry, we know which materials are most durable so all our solutions come with guarantees to provide you with extra peace of mind.

Our 36 years of experience in the industry allows us to offer our clients support throughout the whole process of a decorative markings project. We are more than happy to discuss ideas at the design stage and help with the organisation of the works. Our experienced operatives will carry out the installation and we’ll also help with any after sales care that may be required.

Colourful Crossing Project, Newcastle-upon-tyne.  Working with the Main Contractor COLAS, Fastlane Roadmarkings provided the technical expertise to install the markings.

Here are some examples of the decorative markings we offer:

  • Bespoke company logo markings    

    These can be applied at the entrance to your business car park or in front of your reception entrance to improve your brand identity and provide a professional first impression to visitors, clients and employees!

  • Corporate markings          

    Markings can be applied to suit private company’s brand colours or product range. For example, car dealerships often have bespoke display area markings which correspond to their brand identity.

  • School badges/crests and club emblems

    Again these are normally applied at the entrance to schools or clubs to create a great first impression and welcoming environment for pupils, parents and teachers!

  • Bespoke artistic markings                          

    We have carried out numerous artistic projects where decorative markings have been used in public and private spaces to improve their appearance. Bright and colourful designs can be used to make dull areas more interesting or to convey support or awareness for a subject or organisation. With over 36 years' experience in the line marking industry, our professional teams can bring an artist’s vision to reality through the use of bespoke markings and designs installed to a high quality specification. Examples of artistic decorative markings include colourful pedestrian crossings, bespoke street murals and abstract artistic designs installed to urban areas. These artistic markings are being used by both public councils and private businesses to improve the appearance of an area, create a more welcoming environment and to attract visitors or customers.

  • Anti-skid surfacing                        

    Cold and hot-applied anti-skid and anti-slip surfacing solutions can be used to both enhance the safety and appearance of areas. These high friction surfacing systems are available in a wide array of different colours suitable for any situation. These surfaces also have a high skid resistance value making them ideal solutions to improve the safety of slippery paths, walkways, loading areas and cycle lanes.

  • School playground games and designs                

    Pre-formed thermoplastic school playground markings are a quick and cost-effective way of brightening up playgrounds and encouraging active outdoor learning for kids. The wide range of colourful and educational thermoplastic playground markings we offer are not only great fun, but they can also be used to help children improve their literacy/numeracy skills and increase their fitness levels.

  • Electric vehicle charging bay markings                      

    Companies often ask us to make their EV bays brightly coloured and with a specific EV logo. This ensures the bays are easily distinguishable from other bays and improves their appearance.

Sarah Donnelly from Sustrans, 5-star review, “Excellent company! Highly recommend. Responded quickly to an initial email communication and tailored the thermoplastic to the budget, size, location and design constraints I had. Great communication even when the weather scuppered their initial plans to apply the stencils. Very pleased with the result. Sarah Donnelly (Volunteer Coordinator, Sustrans)”
