Powerful Reflective Tape for Marine Purposes

The Marine Tape FD 1403 from Orafol^® ORALITE^® is a reflective film especially designed for maritime purposes. It complies with several international standards for maritime equipment: it has been certified SOLAS Type I and II according to the International Maritime Organisation resolution (IMO) and bears the Wheelmark of the European MED (Marine Equipment Directive).

The 5mm wide tape can be sewn on flexible items like PFDs (Personal Flotation Devices) thanks to its textile backing. It comes ready for use, so no further hemming the edges is required.

The marine tape FD 1403 excels in retroreflectivity in all weather conditions and even at wide angles. These features are essential ins maritime emergencies where rescue forces may look for persons in distress by boat (from the side) or by helicopter (from above).

The polymeric film itself has a single-layer structure, which prevents water or other substances from entering the reflective film with its microprisms. The result is superb performance in harsh environments, including continuous contact with sea water and extreme temperatures.

The main features of the Orafol^® ORALITE^® FD 1403:

• maximum retroreflectivity
• Wheelmark and SOLAS marks on the film
• extraordinary resistance to sea water and extreme temperatures
