The ultimate in durability and longevity, inlaid road markings are applied to ground-out sections of asphalt to create markings flush with the road surface, or 2-3 mm above the road surface. 

Inlaying the markings instead of applying them to the road surface extends the expected maintenance interval by 2 – 3 times on average, as they are more stable overall and highly resistant to damage from snowplow blades and other high-stress activity.

Due to their durability, inlaid markings are most suitable for urban applications in high-wear areas. They perform well for both longitudinal lines and transverse markings, and a single application is often enough for the life of the surface.
