What is Natural Traffic Sign?
Natural Traffic Sign consists of residue hemp fibers and a 100% fossil-free, non-toxic binder. It is a 100% plant-based composite of which the raw materials are locally grown, harvested and processed. The traffic sign and support structure are a co-development of the HR Groep Streetcare and Plantics ‘Superior Natural Materials’.
Natural Traffic Sign symbolizes climate-neutral production and material applications. Production of support structure and panels take place fully automatically based on green energy, and the finishing is in the hands of people with a distance to the labour market. The natural appearance confirms the pure plant-based composition of materials. The object breathes harmony with its surroundings.
After a technical lifespan of at least 20 years, the carrier is compostable following EN13432. Retro-reflective foil can be mechanically separated from the carrier.
Why Natural Traffic Sign?
Natural Traffic Sign is made up of 100% bio-based thermoset resins and is the world’s first of its kind.
Natural Traffic Sign is a high-quality, circular and CO2 negative product that is an excellent alternative to the aluminium signs.
Bio-resins are safe, and most raw materials are available on an industrial scale in Europe. Natural Traffic Sign is light in weight. The carrier and support construction combination carries the CE mark and achieves an MKI score сlose to zero.
The result is a strong, high-quality, circular, and CO2 negative Traffic Sign with a natural look and feel.
