3M

3M Raised pavement marker

3M offers various designs of road reflectors to suit different road types and requirements. Some designs are flush with the road surface, while others are slightly raised to create a tactile effect that alerts drivers. The effectiveness of road reflectors, including those made by 3M, relies on retroreflective technology. This technology reflects light back toward its source (such as a car’s headlights), increasing visibility.

Features

  • Highly retroreflective microprismatic lens
  • Abrasion resistant coating
  • Impact resistant
  • Long-term nighttime visibility
  • Finger-grip design
