Background
Reflectolites represent the latest technology alternative to shining headlights on glass reflectors to guide motorists at night.

Sixty years after Percy Shaw introduced the Cats Eye, dipped headlights reaching only 80 metres ahead with clean headlights cannot adequately guide motorists in the dark or in wet conditions. In wet conditions, the optical properties of white lines and

prismatic reflectors are rendered useless and fail to reflect headlights back to the driver. Completely the opposite occurs, with headlights being projected upwards and randomly to dazzle oncoming drivers whilst rendering the road ahead 'pitch black'.

Since their introduction in 1998, over 50 County Councils and HighwaysAgency areas throughout the UK have deployed self illuminating roadstuds as a means of accident reduction and prevention.

The cost of deploying Reflectolites is rapidly recovered with the prevention of just one serious injury. The prevention of just one fatality pays for over thirty new installations in the first year of operation.
