Created by an innovator and entrepreneur driven to help people.
While volunteering as an EMT at his local fire department, Safe Reflections founder and 3M™ chemical engineer Bob Koppes discovered there was insufficient reflective material on garments worn by his fellow first responders. After developing some new adhesives to allow reflective trims to adhere to work uniforms, Bob quickly realized the widespread need for highly visible garments across many industries.
In 1993 he opened Safe Reflections Inc., to provide a higher level of visibility to people who work, play or defend in nighttime and low-light conditions. From this small beginning, Safe Reflections has developed many breakthrough technologies and proprietary products, supplying the garment industry with custom reflective trims, graphic transfer Logos and reflective rolled goods.
Today, as the global industry leader, Safe Reflections daily continues to innovate, energize and drive the visibility industry.
