BS EN 12899-1:2007 RA1 & RA2 Traffic Cones for Sale | European Reflective Traffic Cones Manufacturer
Traffic cones used for road works and temporary traffic management in Europe must comply with strict visibility and safety standards. One of the most widely referenced standards is BS EN 12899-1:2007, which defines the performance requirements for fixed and portable road traffic signs, including reflective materials used on traffic control devices such as cones.
Traffic cones equipped with reflective sleeves that meet RA1 or RA2 retroreflective performance classes are commonly used in road construction, highway maintenance, and urban traffic management across Europe.
What is BS EN 12899-1:2007?
BS EN 12899-1:2007 is a European standard that specifies requirements for permanently and temporarily installed road traffic signs and reflective materials. The standard defines the performance of reflective sheeting used on traffic control equipment, ensuring that devices remain visible to drivers under both daytime and nighttime conditions.
For traffic cones, reflective sleeves manufactured according to this standard ensure sufficient brightness and durability when exposed to vehicle headlights and environmental conditions.
RA1 vs RA2 Reflective Performance
| Reflective Class | Description | Typical Application |
|---|---|---|
| RA1 | Standard retroreflective performance for general traffic control | Urban roads, parking areas, temporary work zones |
| RA2 | High intensity retroreflective performance for enhanced visibility | Highways, high-speed roads, major construction projects |
RA2 reflective sleeves provide significantly higher brightness compared with RA1 and are typically required for highways or locations where vehicles travel at higher speeds.
