Abstract (en)

A signalling device (1,2), such as a traffic cone, is constructed from a plastics material containing a fluorescent dye and bearing a marking (4). Light incident upon the device (1,2) causes flurorescence within the dye and fluorescent light so generated is constrained within the material such that the majority may only leave the device (1,2) via the marking (4).
