3M Scotchlite 8906 Sewn-On Reflective Trim (500 cd)

The 3M Scotchlite 8906 is a high-brightness sewn-on reflective trim for high-visibility workwear, with a reflective coefficient of about 500 cd/(lx·m²). Stitched directly onto garments, it returns light strongly to the source, so wearers are highly conspicuous in low light and at night.

Product overview

Scotchlite 8906 is a silver reflective strip applied by sewing rather than heat transfer. Because it offers a high reflective performance (around 500 cd), it is a strong choice where maximum visibility is needed. The sewn-on format also lets manufacturers add reflective bands to a wide range of fabrics and garment styles.
