What Performance Sealing & Striping does

Performance Sealing & Striping, Inc. is a privately held pavement marking and roadway safety services contractor founded in 2007 and headquartered at 115 Atlas Brown Drive, Jacksonville, North Carolina. The company was established by David Brown as a sister entity to Onslow Grading & Paving, Inc. (founded 1988) and has operated continuously for over 17 years, growing from residential seal coating into commercial striping, municipal and highway markings, thermoplastic applications, and federal airfield projects on military installations.

The service portfolio spans core pavement marking (parking lot striping, highway and city striping, thermoplastic roadway markings, airfield runway/taxiway/apron markings, and reflective pavement markers) plus adjacent maintenance work (crack sealing, sealcoating, marking removal via grinding and hydroblasting, signage, and concrete wheel stops). The technical stack is physical rather than digital — thermoplastic and waterborne traffic paint applied through specialized striping equipment, paired with hydroblasting/grinding systems for marking removal — and is differentiated primarily by durability and suitability for high-traffic and airfield environments rather than by proprietary intellectual property. The company is affiliated with industry associations ATSSA and AGC, and operates as a prime contractor for the North Carolina and South Carolina Departments of Transportation.

Revenue is generated project-by-project through competitive bidding on state DOT and federal/military work, plus direct commercial engagements obtained via phone and website quote request. Pricing is non-public and determined by scope, materials, and site conditions. Distribution is direct; no intermediaries or channel partners are used. As of 2025, the company operates as an operating partner within Frontline Road Safety Group, the largest pavement marking services provider in the United States, which provides national-scale resources while the entity retains regional execution responsibility in its core Carolinas market.

Scale indicators3 records

Recent moves5 records

Expansion highlights3 records

Broad incumbents

• SWARCO: Global road marking and traffic management company with significant US operations following multiple acquisitions. Overlaps with Performance Sealing & Striping in thermoplastic markings, road studs, and traffic safety solutions, but at a much broader international scale.
• PPG Industries (Ennis-Flint): Global coatings giant that acquired Ennis-Flint, a leading manufacturer of pavement marking paints and thermoplastics. Comparable because it supplies the very materials Performance Sealing & Striping applies, and competes indirectly through vertical integration of materials and services.
• RoadSafe Traffic Systems: National pavement marking and traffic control services provider serving DOTs, airports, and commercial clients across the US. Directly comparable service portfolio to Performance Sealing & Striping but operates at significantly larger national scale as a PE-backed platform.
• 3M Traffic Safety Division: Major manufacturer of retroreflective sheeting, pavement marking tapes, and traffic safety products used in roadway applications. Adjacent incumbent supplying many of the same customers and overlapping with Performance Sealing & Striping's roadway safety scope.

Direct peers

• Stripe-A-Zone: US pavement marking and line striping services company serving commercial parking lots, roads, and airports. Closely comparable in service mix and customer segments to Performance Sealing & Striping, with similar specialty-contractor positioning.
• AWP Safety: North American traffic safety and pavement marking services provider serving utility, transportation, and infrastructure customers. Comparable service portfolio and customer base to Performance Sealing & Striping, with broader national coverage.
• TrafFix Devices: Manufacturer and supplier of traffic safety and pavement marking products including cones, barriers, and reflective devices. Comparable as a participant in the same roadway safety ecosystem as Performance Sealing & Striping, though focused on product supply rather than installation services.

Others

• Vulcan Materials Company: Largest US producer of construction aggregates and asphalt mixtures, supplying DOT and infrastructure projects. Indirectly comparable because Performance Sealing & Striping's pavement marking/sealing work is specified alongside Vulcan-supplied paving materials on the same projects.
