Amerglo Fabric

Amerglo logo  
   

AMERGLO™ fabrics are developed on a high quality 100% polyester fabric for use in products where high visibility is required. A fluorescent orange or aluminum color-coating is applied followed by clear glass reflective beads, reflecting light up to a distance of 300 feet. This is ideal for items requiring nighttime visibility and safety.

Some applications include:

  • Reflective strip for boat trailer cover
  • Safety vests
  • News boys vests
