Product Description
Reflective corded piping is a slim, flexible trim that combines a raised, rounded cord with a high‑visibility reflective surface.
Application
Reflective piping is stitched into the seams where two panels of a garment or accessory meet, creating a clean, structured finish.
In safety garments, this detail enhances both functionality and visual appeal by improving visibility without compromising the overall design.

Especially effective on sportswear, it is light in weight and can be added very subtly so that the wearer is often not even aware of the protective value‑added trim on the item.

Incorporated into shoes and hats, it enhances visibility and style. On footwear, it can be stitched along seams, heel counters, or lace panels to catch light from multiple angles, improving safety for walkers, runners, and cyclists. On hats, reflective piping can outline brims or panels, providing subtle illumination that helps the wearer stand out in low‑light conditions while maintaining a sleek, modern look.

Piping is also used on leather wear for motorcyclists. Clever application of this trim can outline the frame of a rider and therefore be highly visible in the dark. Incorporated into safety boots or shoes, reflective piping offers a very economical way of adding a safety trim to such a protective item.

Specifications
The piping is constructed using a thin, pliable reflective strip folded over a polyester cord and polyester warp knit, then stitched together to form a corded trim with a lip. The durability is strong, with a minimum wash cycle indicated at 25° and 60° Celsius.
Safety Advantages
The major advantage and key differentiation between reflective piping and other reflective trims is its rounded finish, which allows the piping to reflect light at 360°.
It is also a subtle application, preventing the need for multiple reflective tapes sewn across a garment to ensure visibility in low‑light conditions. This makes it an aesthetically more pleasing option to incorporate on corporate wear, sportswear, bags, upholstery, and shoes.
Why you should use this
This trim delivers genuine value‑added functionality when applied to clothing and accessories. Easy to work with during manufacturing, it integrates smoothly into production processes and performs reliably without affecting the overall design or aesthetic of the item.
