Description

Product Overview

Reflective tape works through a retroreflective surface structure — typically micro-prisms or glass beads embedded in the tape — that returns light back toward its source rather than scattering it. This makes objects wearing or marked with reflective tape far more visible to a driver’s headlights at night than a plain coloured surface would be. Reflective tape is supplied with a pressure-sensitive adhesive backing so it can be applied directly to vehicles, equipment and signage.

Adhesive Specialities supplies reflective tape including a yellow variant for applications requiring specific colour-coded visibility.
