Retro-reflective 
Safety Signs for Offshore Setting

Retro-reflective signs serve as safety and information signage designed specifically for challenging offshore environments, such as oil platforms, wind farms and vessels. Their primary function is to enhance visibility and readability in outdoor low-light or emergency conditions by reflecting light back toward its source, typically from a flashlight, headlamp or searchlight.

Maximum Durability 

A-SPE reflective safety signs, constructed from a durable rigid backing, layered with premium 3M reflective sheeting and protected by a UV light-blocking laminate, are built for long-lasting performance typical of marine and offshore applications. 

Their excellent UV-filtering properties ensure high outdoor resistance to weather conditions and prevent the printed area from fading. Designed with a premium 3M adhesive film, the signs ensure secure and reliable installation on a variety of surfaces.

 This multi-layered composition provides exceptional resistance to UV radiation, high humidity, saltwater, mild chemicals and elevated temperatures, up to +94°C. 

KEY BENEFITS

  • 3M Retro-reflective film for exceptionally high visibility
  • Suitable for external use in humid, corrosive and dusty environments
  • Excellent UV-filtering properties protect printed graphics from fading
  • Resistant to mild chemicals, alkali and seawater 
  • High-performance 3M acrylic adhesive for secure and long-lasting bond 
  • High temperature resistance: up to +77°C (continuous) and +94°C (short-term) 
  • Service life up to 10 years

    • 3M Engineer 
    Grade Prismatic Reflective Film

    Retro-reflective surfaces use microscopic glass beads or prismatic elements that direct light precisely back to the viewer. The Engineer Grade Prismatic film used in our IMO signage is differentiated from other prismatic or encapsulated lens materials by the distinctive surface pattern and the visible integral ‘EGP’ marking. 

    Thanks to a specialized printing method, the entire surface of each sign, including the printed area, remains fully retro-reflective, providing consistent performance across the whole sign face.
