How Fluorescent and Retroreflective Visibility Work | Reflaero
Saavy cyclists intentionally improve their ability to be visible to motorists.
Using the combination of two technologies, Reflaero™ products have been thoughtfully designed, using 3M™ Diamond Grade Fluorescent & Reflective Materials, to improve visibility, using the right materials, with the right design, applied to the right location for the cyclist. And, they are always on without need for charging.
Weather and lighting conditions can change throughout the ride, and the combined technologies provide unique capabilities.
2 Technologies
24 Hour Impact
Retroreflectivity
for Nighttime
Retroreflectivity is the optical process of reflecting light back to its source - most critically - vehicle headlights at night. Reflaero™ Winglets and Ringlets use 3M™ Diamond Grade technology with precision optics and over 40,000 cubes per square inch, offering wider angular viewing from distance.
Conspicuity
our Mission
High conspicuity means that drivers can more readily see and identify a cyclist, judge their direction, distance, position in time to accommodate the rider. Reflaero product design and application improve how well you can be seen.
Fluorescence
for Day, Dusk, Dawn
Fluorescence increases visibility during daylight, dusk, and dawn riding. Reflaero products use fluorescent technology, which has the unique property that converts light energy in the invisible spectrum and makes it visible - literally making them visibly brighter than ordinary objects in the daytime and low light riding environment. The unique combination of Fluorescence and Retroreflectivity offers improved visibility during Dawn and Dusk.
