Sparkling reflections that protect and warn in the dark
SULKY REFLECTIVE 30 ensures maximum visibility and safety in low-light conditions.
The principle behind its brilliant effect is so-called retroreflection: special reflective materials bounce incoming light directly back to its source.
This makes the wearer highly visible in the dark or under poor visibility conditions.
SULKY REFLECTIVE 30 combines safety with performance – ideal for demanding applications where visibility matters.
Further development with clear advantages.
As the successor to our proven SULKY CRY, SULKY REFLECTIVE 30 has been specifically optimised and offers noticeable improvements in use:
• Significantly improved embroiderability for clean, precise results
