State-of-the-art technology in Retroreflectometers
In road safety, visibility is a key factor in preventing accidents and ensuring smooth traffic flow. Retroreflectometers are essential tools for measuring the retroreflective capacity of traffic signs, road markings, and other reflective elements that rely on light to be visible in the dark.
At T2S Ibérica, we offer a wide range of retroreflectometers with the latest technology to ensure that road infrastructures meet the highest safety standards.
In this article, we will explain what a retroreflectometer is, the types that exist, their main applications, and why at T2S Ibérica you will find the best options to acquire this type of device.
What is a retroreflectometer?
A retroreflectometer is a measuring device used to assess the level of retroreflection of surfaces such as traffic signs, pavements, reflective workwear, and road markings. Retroreflection is the property that allows a surface to reflect the light from vehicle headlights directly back to the driver, improving nighttime visibility, especially in areas with very low light levels.
Thanks to retroreflectometers, it is possible to check if road markings and signs maintain their reflective properties over time, thus ensuring their effectiveness and safety on the road. In other words, retroreflectometers have multiple uses and applications across different sectors:

Types of retroreflectometers and their applications
There are different types of retroreflectometers specifically designed to assess different retroreflective elements in workwear, signage, and road safety. Not all reflective elements behave the same in response to light, so it is crucial to have the right equipment for each type of measurement.
At T2S Ibérica, we understand that each project has specific needs, which is why we offer a range of retroreflectometers with cutting-edge DELTA technology, designed to meet various needs and ensure highly accurate and reliable measurements.
Horizontal retroreflectometer
The horizontal retroreflectometer is designed to measure the retroreflection of road markings. It is primarily used to assess white and yellow lines, ensuring they meet the visibility levels set by current regulations.
This type of device is essential for road maintenance, as it allows for measuring paint wear and determining the optimal time for renewal.

DELTA vertical retroreflectometer
The DELTA vertical retroreflectometer is a high-precision device designed to measure the retroreflection of traffic signs, information panels, reflective clothing, and other vertical signage elements. This equipment allows for checking whether the signs are still effective during the night or in low visibility conditions, ensuring they meet current safety regulations.

Paint thickness gauge: Precision in road marking maintenance
In addition to measuring retroreflection, it is essential to know the thickness of the paint applied to road markings to ensure their durability and effectiveness. To do this, the paint thickness gauge is used, a key tool in evaluating the condition of horizontal signage.
A paint thickness gauge is a device used to accurately measure the amount of paint applied to a surface. In the field of road signage, it ensures that lines and markings meet the required standards in terms of thickness, optimizing their visibility and lifespan.
