What is the tape with the highest reflective brightness? ​

 

At present, the strongest reflective effect is the "diamond grade" (also known as super strong grade) reflective tape based on microprism technology.

 

Jerrytape is a professional manufacturer and supplier of reflective materials. The company focuses on providing high-quality and high-performance reflective solutions. We have compiled a comparison table of the performance of several common reflective tapes in the company for a more intuitive understanding.

 

Comparative dimension	Diamond/Super Grade (V/IV Class)	High strength level (Class III)	Engineering grade (Class I/II)
Brightness level	Highest (More than 3 times higher than the high-strength level)	Moderate (Three times the engineering grade)	Foundation
Core technology	Microprism/microcrystalline cube corner reflection technology	Glass bead sealed type	Glass bead lens embedded type
Reflective efficiency	Extremely high, close to 100%	Higher	General
Effective visible distance	Visible from hundreds of meters away	Visible from about 100 meters away	Visible within approximately 10-50 meters
Perspective expression	Wide angle, small brightness loss under large incident angle	Clear at medium and large angles	Narrower, slightly skewed angle leads to a significant decrease in brightness
Lifespan	Excellent, 7-10 years	Good, up to 7 years	Generally, 3-7 years
Main application scenarios	Highway signs, high-grade highways, and safety clothing for extreme high-risk environments	General roads, municipal roads, and medium to high-risk operations	Low level roads, temporary signs, low-risk scenarios, and some personal protective equipment
Cost	Expensive	Moderate	Cost-effective

 

 

The key to the outstanding performance of Jerrytape diamond grade reflective tape is the use of more advanced microprism optical technology, which achieves a performance leap over traditional glass bead technology. Microprism utilizes micrometer sized cubic prism units to efficiently reflect light back to the light source through the principle of "total reflection", with a theoretical reflection efficiency close to 100%. In contrast, glass bead technology involves allowing light to enter the bead and then return through a metal reflective layer, which results in energy loss and relatively low efficiency. This technological innovation has brought about comprehensive performance improvements. Whether it is long-range visibility, penetration in rainy and foggy weather, or stability under high-speed driving or large angle observation, microprism technology is far superior to traditional glass microbeads.
