TRUEGRID SnowSpot Parking Markers Available
TRUEGRID Pavers announced the immediate availability of SnowSpots pavement markers for their permeable pavement system. SnowSpots offer snow plow-able, highly visible, paint-free striping for 100% permeable TRUEGRID parking lots, according to the TRUEGRID press release. The markers delineate parking spaces and directional traffic arrows in the TRUEGRID permeable paving grids. SnowSpots sit flush to the top of the TRUEGRID PRO PLUS permeable paver grid to allow easy and quick snow removal using snowplows, snow blowers, brushes, or snow shovels.
“The TRUEGRID paving system is engineered for use in all climates and soils. We are committed to providing the best paving solution available including those in snowy climates,” said Barry Stiles, TRUEGRID Pavers founder. “Being flush, they’re also great for use in disabled parking and access areas.”
