Starpath from Pro-Teq is a new way to light up walkways at night. The UK-based company has created a spray-on coating that absorbs UV rays during the day and then release them at night to create a glowing pathway. The Starpath is designed as an eco-friendly alternative to streetlights.
The Starpath from Pro-Teq takes only a 30 minutes to apply and is ready to use after only four hours. The spray is waterproof and slip-resistant, and the light it omits changes in response to the ambient lighting. It is offered in a total of 11 different colors, each one non-reflective. Pro-Teq has sprayed a portion of the concrete at Christ's Pieces Park in Cambridge, England, to show what the Starpath looks like in action.
