How does light reflecting plastic improve visibility?
Light reflecting plastic enhances visibility by using special microstructures or reflective coatings that bounce light back toward its source. When light—such as from car headlights—hits the plastic surface, it reflects directly back, making objects more noticeable in low-light or dark conditions. This property is especially useful in safety equipment, road signs, bicycles, and construction gear. Unlike ordinary plastic, reflective plastic increases safety by ensuring that people and objects can be seen from greater distances. It is durable, weather-resistant, and effective in preventing accidents by improving nighttime visibility and overall environmental awareness.
