Lighting the way with solar studs

The SR Active Road Stud range from Rennicks UK has been developed to meet a broad range of requirements in areas including cycle paths, campuses and other locations where safety and enhanced navigation are important.

Trials are also currently taking place on the UK road network – where the concept offers an alternative, highly-effective method of illumination – particularly in areas where street lighting is switched off during night-time hours.

Products in the SR Active Road Stud range include individual units powered by in-built solar panels, and hardwired systems, which can be mains powered or powered by a remote solar panel. 

The hardwired systems are ideal for areas where solar access is limited, such as tunnels. The use of a single remotely located solar panel to power a cluster of units in these environments ensures a consistently bright lighting level is achieved, whilst cost and energy savings associated with solar power are still maintained.

Rennicks UK has more than 25 years’ experience in traffic sign technology and design - and the company’s introduction of a premium value LED stud product reflects their ongoing commitment to the development of the latest technologies.

Iain Borthwick, managing director of Rennicks UK, which has its headquarters in Runcorn, Cheshire, said: “The SR Active Road Studs range offers a bright alternative to traditional cats eyes.

“Using bright LEDs, together with an innovative internal prismatic reflection system (RPI), the studs allow unique perception levels, making them one of the brightest and most reliable products available in the marketplace.

“Furthermore, their low power consumption and high autonomy mean they are ideal for places with no power source.”
