Create eye-catching, professional garment designs with STAHLS' Reflective Film 50CM. This silver reflective textile film is designed to reflect incoming light, making printed logos, lettering, numbers and graphics significantly more visible in low-light conditions. It is an excellent choice for professional garment decoration where visibility, durability and a distinctive appearance are important.
Also known as STAHLS' CAD-CUT Reflective, this reflective heat transfer vinyl is particularly suitable for workwear, sportswear, club clothing, event apparel and promotional textiles. The material is DIN 20471 certified and offers a strong reflective effect when exposed to direct light such as vehicle headlights, work lights or other artificial illumination.
The silver surface of this reflective film for clothing has a discreet, professional appearance in normal daylight. When direct light reaches the surface, however, the material reflects the light strongly, making the applied design much more noticeable.
This makes the film ideal for clothing used early in the morning, during evening activities, at night or in areas with limited lighting. It can be used to create reflective logos, names, numbers, lettering, stripes and graphic details on suitable garments.
Typical applications include work jackets, T-shirts, running tops, cycling clothing, sportswear, club apparel, event clothing and promotional garments.
STAHLS' CAD-CUT Reflective is DIN 20471 certified, making it particularly relevant for safety-related textile applications where reflective elements are important for visibility. It can be used for reflective details on workwear, sportswear and other suitable textile products.
It is important to note that using a certified reflective film does not automatically mean that the finished garment as a whole meets every requirement for certified high-visibility clothing. Where a finished product must comply with specific legislation, standards or certification requirements, the complete garment design, reflective area and positioning should be assessed against the applicable regulations.
The STAHLS' Reflective Film 50CM is particularly well suited to larger designs featuring clear lines and connected elements. Its non-adhesive carrier makes it a practical option for substantial logos, names, numbers and uncomplicated graphic designs.
For extremely small lettering, thin lines or designs containing many separate elements, a film with an adhesive carrier may be easier to handle. A test cut is recommended before production when working with detailed artwork.
Reflective heat transfer film is an effective way to add visible branding and information to workwear. Company logos, employee names, department identification and other graphics can be given an additional reflective function while maintaining a professional appearance during daylight.
The silver finish works well on many garments and can create a strong visual contrast, particularly on darker textiles. It is suitable for applications across construction, logistics, warehousing, transport, service industries, events and other professional environments where visibility can be valuable.
Reflective textile film is also a popular choice for sports and leisure clothing. Reflective logos, sponsor branding, team names and graphic details can become highly visible when illuminated in darker surroundings.
The reflective finish can be used as the main design feature or combined with other textile films to create a distinctive layered appearance.
For application, cut the design in reverse using a suitable cutting plotter. Weed away the excess material, leaving the required design on the carrier. Position the design on the garment with the carrier facing upwards and check the placement carefully before pressing.
Remove the carrier while hot immediately after pressing. Always ensure that the heat press provides consistent temperature and pressure across the entire design. Seams, zips, buttons and other raised areas can interfere with proper contact and should be avoided where possible.
A test application is recommended before beginning larger production runs, particularly when working with a new fabric or garment.
This reflective HTV is suitable for a range of commonly decorated fabrics, including:
Different fabrics can react differently to heat and pressure. Fabric construction, dyes and surface treatments can also affect adhesion and appearance. Always test the specific garment before production. Extra care should be taken with sublimated or heavily coloured polyester, as dyes may affect the appearance of reflective materials.
STAHLS' CAD-CUT Reflective can be washed at temperatures of up to 40°C. To help preserve the reflective surface and adhesion, follow both the film manufacturer's recommendations and the garment manufacturer's care instructions.
The 50 cm wide STAHLS' Reflective Film is available in several roll lengths for different production requirements:
