Description-

Reflective
materials are produced from a variety of optical quality glass beads,
and these beads are sized about ¾ size of human hair. These glass
beads are densely packed together and are coated with aluminum
coating, this process turns each glass beads into a convex mirror.
Hence, when light hits each glass bead, it is reflected back exactly
toward the light source. For instance, in a normal flat mirror, the
reflection is only on the opposite side of the image while, a mirror
with reflective glass beads displays the image from all the sides.

Reflective
materials are generally made by employing the glass bead technology
and microprismatic technology. The glass beads technology utilizes
millions of high performance glass beads that reflect light
effectively in all directions due to their spherical nature. This
technology is widely used in the textile industry, as it is flexible,
and is easy to store. The microprismatic technology includes
retro-reflective microscopic prisms that are formed on a polymeric
film. This technology creates a bright reflective appearance on
applications such as garments and accessories. The materials produced
from microprismatic technology appear attractive with a high gloss
finish, and provide enhanced visibility during the day, at night, and
low light situations in various end-use industries such as in
textiles and construction industries.
Increasing demand from end-use industries for high
visibility materials and safety concerns for labors in the
construction industry is anticipated to drive the reflective
materials market during the forecast period. However, fluctuations in
the supply and demand scenario from the industries and volatile raw
material prices are likely to hamper the market.
In terms of product type, the reflective materials
market can be divided into reflective sheet, reflective coating,
reflective tape, reflective film, reflective inks, reflective
fabrics, and others. The reflective coating segment dominates the
reflective materials market. Reflective fabrics are widely utilized
in the textile industry due to the high demand for flame retardant
reflective apparels. Reflective materials provide increased
visibility and safety in low light conditions such as snow, fog, and
darkness at night, which fuels its demand in the textile industry.
DuPont manufactures such apparels under the Cordura brand that is
ideally applicable in the textile industry. The coating is also a key
market segment and is anticipated to expand during the forecast
period owing to the rising demand for reflective materials from the
construction industry.
Based on end-use industry, the reflective
materials market can be segmented into construction, textile,
automotive, and others. The construction industry is the key segment
of the reflective material market. Demand for reflectors, display
panels, and lightening lenses drives the market. Textile and
automotive industries are also prominent contributors to the
reflective materials market, as these material provide safety in
adverse circumstances.
In terms of region, the global reflective
materials market can be segregated into Asia Pacific, North America,
Latin America, Europe, and Middle East & Africa. Economic and
industrial developments in economies such as China, Japan, and India
have contributed significantly to the expansion of the market in Asia
Pacific market. Latin America and Middle East & Africa also hold
a significant share of the global market, which is attributed to the
rising demand for reflective materials from key industries such as
automotive, construction, and textile, which are expected to witness
an increase consumption of reflective materials. Moreover, the
presence of major end-user industries in North America and Europe is
further boosting the market in in these regions.
The reflective material market is highly
competitive due to the presence of major local players in the market.
The competition is also affected by shift in demand and changes in
the availability of various supply factors and costs. Technological
advancements and innovation of unique products are key strategies
adopted by global players to expand their presence in the market. For
instance, in 2017, 3M introduced 5410 Diamond Mesh Trim, under the
brand Scotchlite. It’s a reflective material for work wear that
provides a high-value, high-visibility, and low-material waste. Key
players operating in the reflective materials market include Alanod
GmbH, 3M, ORAFOL Europe GmbH, and Avery Dennison Corporation.
