3M™ Scotchlite™ Reflective Material 8986 with high reflection values for safety clothing, such as firefighting garments and flame-resistant workwear, requiring a high degree of daytime and night-time visibility.

3M™ Scotchlite™ Reflective Material 8986 helps to enhance the visibility in low-light and nighttime conditions. It's designed for safety clothing, such as firefighting garments and flame-resistant workwear, requiring a high degree of daytime and night-time visibility. The material shines white when illuminated, even if the wearer is at the roadside. It meets various global high-visibility standards such as ISO 20471 for combined material and exceeds the minimum reflections values required at the highest performance level, thus greatly improving the visibility of people. 3M Scotchlite Reflective Material 8986 consists of high-precision glass beads bonded to a durable, inherently flame-resistant 100% cotton fabric. It is characterized by a high degree of heat resistance, does not affect the flame-retardant properties of the garment, and it's renowned for its good long-term flame resistance as per EN 469. 3M pioneered the science of retroreflection in 1939. Since then, we strive to make the world a safer, more visible place for all.
