Custom prints on mid-range prismatic reflective film that catch the light of approaching headlights and send it straight back to the driver. Supplied as a peel-and-stick roll or as a ready board on sunboard or ACP, for roads, driveways, parking areas and work sites.
Why night reflective signs
Road direction boards, highway signs and safety warnings must stay clearly visible and legible, not only in daylight but also in total darkness. A warning for a slippery road, a construction site ahead or a sharp U-turn can save a life, but only if the driver sees it in time.
A sign printed on ordinary material is easy to read in sunshine and almost invisible at midnight, in heavy rain or in dense fog. Lighting every sign along a long stretch of road is rarely practical: bringing electricity to it is often technically difficult, and always expensive to run.
Our prismatic night reflective vinyl prints solve this. The film sends the light of a vehicle's headlights straight back to the driver, so your message shows up bright and clear at night, while looking like a normal printed sign during the day. There is no wiring, no power supply and no running cost.
How it works
The front surface of prismatic reflective film carries thousands of tiny plastic prisms arranged in a honeycomb pattern. Each prism has a silver coating on its underside, which turns the whole surface into a dense array of micro-mirrors.
When headlights fall on the sign, these micro-mirrors return the light towards its source instead of scattering it. The driver sees the sign light up, even on a pitch-dark road. The moment the vehicle passes and the light moves away, the sign goes back to looking like an ordinary board. This is called retro-reflection.
The prismatic surface is top-coated to accept printing inks, so we can print your text, arrows, symbols and colours directly on it. In effect, you get your artwork printed on a flexible mirror, delivered as a roll.
Because the mirrors are microscopic prisms rather than a glass sheet, the film stays flexible enough to roll and feed through our wide-format printers.
Made of high-grade plastic, the film doesn't shatter like glass and resists cracking in high outdoor temperatures.
A strong adhesive backing means you can stick the print onto a metal sheet or board and put it up on a pole or wall straight away.
In daylight the sign shows your colours and text with a subtle silver shimmer; at night it shines back at every headlight.
Choose the right film
We print on three kinds of night reflective film: glass-beaded reflective vinyl, the mid-range prismatic film on this page, and premium 3M™ High-Intensity Prismatic (HIP) film. They are not interchangeable, so pick the one that suits how far away your sign will be read.
Mid-range prismatic film sits between the two: much brighter and longer-reaching than glass-beaded film, at a fraction of the price of branded 3M™ HIP film.
Prismatic film shows small honeycomb prisms that are visible to the naked eye. Glass-beaded film uses microscopic glass spheres that you cannot see.
Prismatic film shines brighter and focuses the returned light more tightly, so it is made for signs read from a distance. Glass-beaded film has a shorter reflective range and suits signs that don't need to be read beyond about 100 metres.
Prismatic film is ideal for bold signs with blocky fonts and large symbols. Fine detail, such as strands of hair in a photograph, gets lost in the pattern of the prisms; for detailed, close-range graphics choose glass-beaded film.
Mid-range prismatic film gives long-range night visibility without the price of a branded film. For the longest range on highways, 3M™ HIP film on a large sign can be seen from up to about half a kilometre.

Compare all our reflective films →Printing and durability
We print your sign artwork on industrial wide-format inkjet printers that reproduce text, arrows and symbols sharply, in vibrant colours, so every word stays legible from a distance.
Road and safety signs face every kind of weather, so we print them in outdoor-grade inks: UV-curable or eco-solvent, both made for all-weather outdoor use. They don't run in the rain and resist fading in strong sunlight.
The inks bond to the film and don't smudge or wash off in heavy monsoon rain.
Outdoor-grade inks resist fading under the strong Indian sun.
The film stands up to dust, heat, rain and everyday wear on roadsides and work sites.
Crisp edges on letters and symbols, so the sign reads clearly when the headlights hit it.
Three variants
Depending on where the sign goes and what it will be fixed to, we supply our prismatic reflective prints in three forms. All three use the same reflective film and printing; only the backing changes.
Best for: existing smooth surfaces, such as a metal sign plate, an aluminium frame or a laminated wooden panel.
You get: a flexible printed roll with a high-tack permanent adhesive under a release liner. Peel it off and stick it on, like a large sticker.
Best for: rough or uneven walls (stucco, brick, raw concrete) where a sticker cannot grip, in workshops, factories, offices and campuses.
You get: the print mounted on a lightweight, smooth and rigid 5 mm PVC sunboard sheet, ready to nail or screw onto the wall.
Best for: roadside poles, building exteriors and open industrial areas exposed to wind, knocks and rain, where a plastic sign could crack.
You get: the print mounted on a 3 mm exterior-grade aluminium composite panel (ACP): strong, flat, dent-resistant and lightweight, and it won't rust.
The price per square foot of each variant is shown in the price table at the top of this page. All prices exclude 18% GST.
How we make your sign
Every sign is printed to order, at the size you need, from your own artwork.
1
Email us the sign design at its final size; we set it up for printing and send you a proof on WhatsApp.
2
After you approve the proof and pay, we print the sign on prismatic reflective film in outdoor-grade inks.
3
For the sunboard or ACP variant, we mount the print on the panel and trim it to size.
4
We check the finished sign, send you a short video, and pack it for delivery or collection.
We print your design; we don't design signs from scratch. Need a designer? See our favourite Pune-based designers, or start from our free downloadable safety sign artwork.
Reflective or glow-in-the-dark?
Many people mix up night reflective and night glow signs. Both are used for safety signage, but they work in completely different ways, so they suit different places.
Needs a light source
Reflective film produces no light of its own. It shines only while a light, such as a vehicle's headlights, falls on it, and stops the moment the light moves away. Because it reflects light from a great distance, it is the right choice for roads, driveways and other outdoor areas with traffic.
Road and highway direction boards
Parking, driveway and no-entry signs
Glows on its own
Glow-in-the-dark prints absorb light and then glow on their own in the dark, without power, for roughly 45 minutes to 1.5 hours depending on how well they were charged. That makes them ideal for indoor emergency signs that must stay visible during a power failure.
Fire exit and escape-route signs
Stairwells, corridors and basements
Installation
The roll-form print is pre-gummed with a strong adhesive, so you apply it like a large sticker. You can apply it dry or wet; both methods work well on a smooth, clean surface.
Peel back a strip of the liner, fix the top edge in place, then press the print down with a squeegee from the centre outwards while you pull the liner away. Quick and clean, and the bond forms straight away.
Spray a little soapy water on the surface first. The water lets you slide and reposition the print before the adhesive grips, which helps with larger prints. The steps are below.
1
Clean the surface and spray a little soapy water onto it.
2
Peel back one edge of the release liner and line up the top edge of the print with the surface.
3
Stick the top edge down and work your way down the sheet, peeling the liner as you go.
4
Press the print down with a squeegee from the centre outwards to push out the water and any air bubbles.
5
Once the water is out, the vinyl lies flat without creases. Press all the edges down firmly with your hands.
Sunboard and ACP boards simply go up with screws, bolts or nails on a wall, frame or pole. We install in Pune: on orders of ₹10,000 + GST and above, installation is quoted separately once we know the site; for smaller jobs in Pune we can still install, at a slightly higher charge. See how to reach us.
Pricing
Prismatic reflective prints are priced per square foot of the sign, and the rate depends on the variant: roll form, sunboard or ACP. Multiply the width by the height of your sign in feet, then by the rate in the price table. Enter your sign size in the calculator at the top of this page to see the price for your own job.
Sign size
4 x 3 ft = 12 sq ft
Roll form (₹100 per sq ft)
₹1,200 + GST per sign
On 5 mm sunboard (₹180 per sq ft)
₹2,160 + GST per sign
On 3 mm ACP (₹240 per sq ft)
₹2,880 + GST per sign
Minimum order
₹3,000 + GST: for example three roll-form signs, 36 sq ft = ₹3,600 + GST
The minimum order is ₹3,000 + GST. A single small sign on its own costs less than that, so combine several signs or copies in one order to reach it.
Good to know
₹3,000 + GST per order. Several signs, or several copies of one sign, can make up the order.
Print jobs typically take 2-3 days after proof approval and payment, plus delivery time. Rush jobs can be moved up the queue when the schedule allows, but we don't promise a finishing date.
Free delivery in Pune. Roll-form prints ship free across India by courier. Sunboard and ACP boards are bulky, so outside Pune their shipping is charged extra and quoted before dispatch. In a hurry? Collect from our shop in Shaniwar Peth, Pune.
Applications
Prismatic reflective prints are made to deliver a message to drivers wherever there is traffic and little light, and wherever bringing power to a sign is difficult or not worth the cost. Typical uses include:
Direction, distance and exit signs that drivers can read at night.
Guidance boards for entrances, exits, ramps and parking levels.
Safety and direction markers for open areas, diversions and hazards.
Traffic-control signs, including no-parking boards for gates, that stay visible after dark.
Speed limits, loading bays and vehicle routes in yards and industrial areas.
Reflective stickers for delivery scooters, taxis and fleet vehicles; see our vehicle branding work.
Need reflective parking stickers for a housing society or office? See our night reflective parking sticker permits.
Artwork
Send us a print-ready design and we'll take care of the rest. We accept almost every common file format.

Set your artboard to the actual sign size (for example 4 x 3 ft) so text and symbols come out at the size you expect.
Use large, blocky fonts, strong symbols and high-contrast colours; prismatic film reads best with bold designs, not fine photographic detail.
PDF, AI or CDR work best. WhatsApp compresses images, so a design sent there may lose quality.
We set up your file for printing and send a proof on WhatsApp; printing starts only after you approve it and pay.

Signs and stickers printed on a reflective film whose surface carries thousands of tiny silver-coated prisms. The prisms return the light of vehicle headlights to the driver, so the sign shows up brightly at night without any electricity.
Prismatic film is brighter and reflects light over a longer distance, which suits bold road and safety signs read from afar. Glass-beaded film has a shorter range but keeps fine, photographic detail sharp at close range. See our glass-beaded reflective prints.
3M™ High-Intensity Prismatic film is a premium branded film with the longest range, for highways. Our mid-range prismatic film gives long-range night visibility at a much lower price. See our 3M™ HIP reflective prints.
No. A reflective sign shines only while light falls on it, such as headlights, and stops when the light moves away. For signs that glow on their own during a power failure, choose glow-in-the-dark prints.
Roll form with a sticker back for a smooth existing surface such as a metal plate; a 5 mm sunboard board for rough indoor or covered walls; a 3 mm ACP board for poles, building exteriors and open outdoor areas.

Dry or wet. Dry: peel the liner gradually and press the print down with a squeegee from the centre outwards. Wet: spray a little soapy water first so you can reposition the print, then squeegee out the water and bubbles and press the edges down.
Yes, in Pune. Installation is always quoted separately once we know the site and the work involved; on orders below ₹10,000 + GST it costs a little more. Outside Pune, sunboard and ACP boards are easy to fix with screws or bolts by any local handyman.
We print in outdoor-grade UV or eco-solvent inks, made for all-weather use. They don't run in the rain and resist fading in strong sunlight.
You can, but fine detail gets lost in the prism pattern. Prismatic film suits bold text, arrows and symbols. For detailed, photographic images viewed up close, choose glass-beaded reflective vinyl.
