Frequently asked questions
Answers to the most common questions about print, attachments, packaging and delivery.
Why is the print not very visible?
The print sits inside the reflector, under the reflective film. The image shows as the reflector moves, but it is not as bright as a sticker. That is a feature of the product: a soft reflector is first a personal safety product, second a promotional surface.
Does the artwork need Pantone colours?
Usually not. Under the film you only see part of the image at a time, and an exact shade cannot be told apart. Bright, high-contrast colours work best. For raster images 300 dpi is enough.
Can I make the artwork without Illustrator?
Yes. With our browser-based designer you add text, colours and your own image straight onto the chosen shape and get a print-ready file without a designer.
Which attachment should I choose?
There are several attachment options and you can pick the one that suits your use. The most popular are the string with a safety pin and the metal chain with a trigger clip.
Can I skip the individual packaging?
No. The soft reflector is a CE-marked safety product and the user instructions are part of that requirement. The instructions accompany every reflector we make, so the individual packaging is not optional but part of the certified product.
How fast can I get the reflectors?
When you use our designer or send artwork on our template, printing can start within days. We offer several production-time options so you can pick the one that fits your schedule and budget.
Can I get samples?
Yes. A sample pack contains various shapes and sizes – tangible products that help you decide what kind of reflector to design. Order a sample pack by contacting us: info@pehmoheijastin.fi.
I want a custom shape – is that possible?
Yes. We make a custom cutting tool to your design, and virtually any shape is possible. CE requirements set limits on size, not on shape. Contact us by email: info@pehmoheijastin.fi. Tooling is charged separately and the minimum order for a custom shape is 500 reflectors.
