Choosing the correct vinyl

Material types 

Engineering grade - Engineering grade kits are at the economy end of the market. Whilst we employ exactly the same manufacturing standards as our premium kits, the materials used for the red sections are a lower cost item, and are made using microscopic glass beads to reflect incoming light. The reflectivity of this vinyl is inferior to the prismatic grade in all instances. These kits are only compliant with Chapter 8 requirements on roads with speed limits UP TO 40 MPH. We offer these as an economic option for our customers, but we strongly advise you to consider our Prismatic kits as a more compliant option. 

Prismatic - Our prismatic kits use Reflexite VC612 red vinyl, mated to a premium fluorescent yellow. This vinyl has a far higher reflective property than engineering grade, using microscopic prisms to reflect a far greater percentage of incoming light. We have personally fitted these kits to thousands of fleet vehicles for our own clients over the years, and are proud to stand by the quality of the finished product. The vinyls are flexible and are a pleasure to work with, and with correct installation and maintenance will last for many years.
