Road signage stakes

Plastic tube extrusion

Since 1973, ABI Profils has been designing and manufacturing road signage stakes to ensure winter safety along secondary roads and on access routes to mountain resorts.

Our products combine strength, visibility and ease of installation, offering reliable marking in all weather conditions.

Available in multiple diameters, lengths and materials, the stakes are supplied ready to install, with custom finishes tailored to the intended use.

Applications

Applications

ABI Profils road signage stakes are designed to guide and protect road users in winter conditions:

  • Secondary and mountain roads: lateral marking and curve guidance.
  • Access roads and climbs to ski resorts: maintaining visibility despite snow or fog.
  • Difficult driving zones: fast identification of road edges and limits.

Material used

Material used

To meet all terrain requirements, ABI Profils offers three main formulations for road signage stakes:

Crystal PVC (Impact-Resistant and UV-Resistant)

  • Excellent resistance to impacts and harsh weather
  • Long-lasting transparency and gloss
  • Recommended for high-snowfall areas or regions with limited visibility

HDPE ECO

  • Very lightweight and easy to handle
  • Good chemical resistance and thermal stability
  • Suitable for temporary or frequently moved installations

HDPE ECO 2R (Reinforced – Recycled)

  • Developed with an eco-responsible approach using recycled material
  • Enhanced mechanical strength and longer lifespan
  • Ideal for municipalities seeking high performance with environmental benefits
Manufacturing process and quality

Manufacturing process and quality

Our road signage stakes are produced on single-screw and twin-screw extrusion lines, a process that guarantees dimensional consistency and tube durability.

The material is melted, extruded through a calibrated die, cooled and cut to the required length.

With 15 extrusion lines, we ensure flexible, responsive production adapted to seasonal demand.

Finishing options

Our stakes are delivered ready to install, with several possible finishes:

  • Class II reflective band application for optimal visibility
  • Installation of conical or helical tips for easier placement in snow or frozen ground
  • Anti-freeze caps to protect tube ends
  • Custom printing available (logo, numbering, identification)

All finishing operations are performed in-line or post-extrusion to ensure optimal adhesion and long-term durability.

Each production batch is traceable, inspected and compliant with ISO 9001 and ISO 14001.
