COST SAVINGS: -GRIP-FLEX Surfaces will last 10+ Years -More
durable and Less Expensive than asphalt overlays. -Fewer Shutdowns and less Re-Striping.
VISIBILITY: -GRIP-FLEX surfaces are DEEP BLACK
and HIGHLY VISIBLEfrom the air.
-Pilots
can see the BLACK
Runway in marginal visibility.

SAFETY: -GRIP-FLEX has one of the HIGHEST Anti-Skid /
Anti-Slip Ratings
(proven by the Georgia DOT in 1990)
