Transport & Road Infrastructure
Longer-lasting, low-maintenance
infrastructure for safer journeys
From major road corridors and bridges to intersections, tunnels and transport hubs, OmniGrip Direct is redefining standards in safer, smarter and more sustainable transport infrastructure across Australia.
Transport assets operate under constant use, extreme weather and heavy traffic conditions that test traction, visibility and surface performance, while budgets, emissions and maintenance windows continue to tighten.
We work closely with road authorities, Councils and infrastructure contractors as a single-delivery partner with national reach and local expertise. We design, supply and install certified, high-performance surfacing, smart lighting, signage and traffic-calming systems that improve traction, enhance visibility and reduce maintenance demand, lifecycle costs and operational disruption.
1,353 road deaths
In the 12 months to August 2023, with a per-fatality social cost of $4.79 billion.

Intersections & conflict zones
High braking pressure, turning movements, and oil residue make intersections prone to loss of control, even before rain makes surfaces more slippery. Faded markings, low visibility, and unclear lane definition reduce reaction time and driver confidence, increasing crash risks at town entries and signalised junctions. Our solutions improve traction, lane legibility, and visual guidance to reduce collisions, strengthen compliance, and keep intersections operating safely in all conditions.
Solutions:
Reduces braking distances and improves skid resistance on black spots, curves, and intersection approaches
Improves traction and visibility across bike lanes, bus lanes, and pedestrian crossings with traffic safety colours (red, yellow, green)
Solar or battery models define lanes, crossings, road curves, and kerbs at night, while hard-wired systems warn of cyclist-vehicle conflict zones at day and night
Provide long-lasting visibility in all weather conditions
Wayfinding and regulatory signage ensures clear navigation for all road users
Define safe boundaries between vehicles, cyclists and pedestrians using modular elements
Support safe traffic-controlled pedestrian crossings with bright, ground-level cues
Increase driver awareness and reduces speeding in high-risk zones
Shared user paths
Shared user paths experience constant use, fading paint, and poor lighting, leaving surfaces slippery and hard to navigate, especially in wet or low-light conditions. Unclear boundaries and inconsistent or weak colour contrast can cause confusion and near misses between users. Our solutions strengthen surface grip, visibility, and visual definition that keep shared paths safe, legible, and low-maintenance year-round, and day and night.
Solutions:
Delivers decorative, slip resistance and long-life performance finishes with custom colours
Improves traction and visibility across active transport corridors with durable colour (red, yellow, green)
Solar or battery-powered models deliver low-glare, directional lighting with minimal light spill – automatically activating in low-light conditions
Extends pathway use after dark without power infrastructure
Wayfinding signage ensures intuitive navigation with Photoluminescent options for low-light conditions
Protects paths from vehicle incursion with bollards and kerb separators
Pedestrian crossings
Crossings in school zones, town centres, and high-use areas face constant wear from braking vehicles, foot traffic, and weather exposure. Smooth paint, fading markings, and poor visibility make surfaces slippery and difficult to see, while rain and low light further increase crash risk. Our solutions restore traction, clarity, and night-time visibility to keep crossings compliant, recognisable, and safe for every user in all conditions.
Our solutions:
Increases vehicle braking control on approaches to crossings
Delivers high-contrast, non-slip surface colour for pedestrian and school crossings
Guide vision-impaired and distracted pedestrians safely across crossings with bright, ground-level cues
Maintains long-life zebra and crossing definition under heavy wear
Hard-wired sensor-activated units signal approaching vehicles of pedestrian or cycle movement at crossings and turn lanes, providing low-glare lane guidance in wet or low-light conditions
Shared spaces & streetscapes
In busy town centres and shared zones, vehicles, cyclists, and pedestrians move within the same confined areas, but fading markings, worn coatings, and poor lighting blur the boundaries between them. Slippery surfaces, inadequate guidance and low visibility increase the risk of slips, near misses, and driver confusion, especially at night or in wet conditions. Our solutions deliver lasting traction, clear visual separation, and subtle, energy-efficient lighting to make shared spaces safer, more intuitive, and visually inviting for every user.
Our solutions:
Combines slip resistance with custom colour to create decorative, durable public environments, with solar-reflective options to reduce heat
Preserves decorative or heritage paving with transparent grip protection
Improves navigation through high-use community areas
Manages vehicle access with bollards, barriers and speed humps
Solar or battery-powered models provide low-glare guidance and define shared spaces and walkways in low-light conditions while minimising light spill
Illuminates outdoor spaces and extend pathway use at night without powered infrastructure
Reminds drivers to slow down through active pedestrian areas
Curves & descents
Sharp bends, steep gradients, and sudden changes in road alignment demand reliable grip and clear guidance, yet oil build-up, worn slippery coatings, and poor night visibility create prime conditions for run-off-road incidents. In wet weather, even minor loss of traction can lead to serious crashes. Our solutions provide superior skid resistance and continuous visual guidance, helping drivers maintain control and confidence through every turn and descent.
Our solutions:
Delivers exceptional skid resistance and braking control on tight bends, steep grades, and approach ramps
Adds durable, textured grip to pedestrian ramps, bridge decks, and transition areas
Solar, battery models define lane alignment and edge boundaries reinforcing curve alignment at night, giving drivers continuous guidance
Self-illuminating guidance through unlit curves and descents, improving night-time lane visibility without reliance on overhead power
Display real-time vehicle speeds on downhill approaches or curve entries to reduce excessive braking
Reduce suspension wear and extend surface life
Carparks & bays
Constant vehicle movement, tight spaces, and exposure to rain or oil make car parks slippery and difficult to navigate. Faded markings and poor lighting reduce visibility, while dull, worn bays undermine accessibility and overall presentation. Our solutions deliver durable traction, bright visual definition, and low-glare illumination that keep car parks vibrant, safe, and easy to navigate in all conditions.
Our solutions:
Adds durable grip and custom colour definition to EV, accessible and general parking bays
Solar and battery-powered units delineate bays, traffic lanes and pedestrian zones in outdoor and enclosed carparks. Their dusk-activated operation enables alternate day vs night configurations
Maintains long-lasting bay and directional clarity under constant traffic
Wayfinding and regulatory signage improve navigation and flow within complex or multi-level layouts
Slows vehicles and defines movement zones through modular humps and wheel stops
Displays real-time speed feedback to reduce collisions
Bus & bike lanes
Painted coatings offer little to no traction and wear rapidly under braking, turning, and constant traffic. As surfaces smooth out and colours fade from UV exposure, lane visibility and user safety decline, increasing conflict between buses, cyclists, and vehicles, especially in wet or low-light conditions. Our solutions deliver high-grip, long-life colour and compliant delineation that keeps bus and bike lanes bright, safe, and low-maintenance year-round.
Our solutions:
Provides durable, high-traction colour for bus and bike lanes (red, green, yellow)
Increases grip in braking zones and at turning intersections
Hard-wired sensor systems detect pedestrian or cyclist movement, and trigger illuminated alerts to warn approaching vehicles. Solar and battery-powered models provide dusk-activated, low-glare delineation.
Reinforce lane separation and prevent unauthorised vehicle entry using bollards, kerb separators
Provides compliant lane symbols and directional arrows for consistent guidance
Reduce suspension wear and extend surface life
