SWARCOPLAST Tex high-friction plastic is a solvent-free, multi-component cold plastic marking system based on reactive resins. Upon application, it cures chemically to form a thermosetting compound that is stable and resistant to softening under heat.

The product is placed on the market outside the scope of harmonised European product legislation (e.g. the Construction Products Regulation), as it is not subject to such requirements.

Thanks to its high elasticity and inherently textured surface, the material offers excellent skid resistance without the need for additional additives. It is suitable for various road marking applications, including but not limited to bike lanes.

PRODUCT PICTURE


SWARCOPLAST Tex is supplied in tinplate buckets (16 or 25 kg net weight) and has a shelf life of up to six months when unopened. This representative EPD refers to SWARCOPLAST Tex high-friction plastic in traffic red (RAL 3020), supplied in a 16 kg tinplate bucket. This colour variant was selected as it represented the highest share of the total SWARCOPLAST Tex production volume during the reference year. The declaration also covers the colour variants RAL 3013 tomato red, RAL 5017 traffic blue, RAL 9017 traffic black, RAL 3011 brown red, RAL 1023 traffic yellow, RAL 6024 traffic green, RAL 5002 ultramarine blue, and RAL 5015 sky blue.

All listed variants belong to the same product class and differ only in colour. There are no technical, functional, or application-relevant differences between the variants. The product class has been defined such that all listed variants deviate by no more than ±11 % from the representative product in terms of GWP-total (modules A1–A3), with the exception of RAL 6024 traffic green, which shows a deviation of approx. +25 %. These deviations are transparently documented in the background report in accordance with the applicable PCR.

The product is designed to meet the performance requirements of EN 1436, which defines the performance characteristics and testing methods for road marking materials.
For the use and application of the product, the respective national provisions at the place of use apply — for example, in Germany, the building codes of the federal states and the corresponding national specifications.
