A system to manufacture articles of footwear, shoe soles, shoe parts, clothing, or externally visible safety material having enhanced safety and visibility with reflective fluorescent safety particle chips, pieces, and shapes which are embedded, bonded, or mixed then are distributed in a pattern or at random throughout and integral to a bonding material which is a transparent or translucent elastomeric compound by extrusion or injection molding. The elastomers can consist of natural or synthetic rubbers, thermo plastic elastomers, vinyls (by which is meant polyvinylchloride plastics in transparent or translucent forms), plasticized vinyl (by which is meant polyvinylchloride plastics, with plastersizer, in transparent or translucent forms), butyl rubber, styrene butadiene rubber, GSR, urethane and all similar flexible transparent or translucent mediums with the reflective or fluorescent safety particle chips, pieces, and shapes distributed throughout the structure.A system for the use of extrusion or injection molding equipment where the translucent or transparent polymeric matrix of the extrusion includes within said matrix, dissimilar polymeric pieces with a higher melting point material, having a size of more than {fraction (1/32)} inch in the smallest dimension and less than ⅜ inch in the largest dimensions which dissimilar higher melting polymeric material pieces soften rather than dispersing and when processed in normal extrusion processing equipment such as screw extruders or injection extruders, creates within said matrix of lower melting translucent or transparent polymer an extruded matrix with shaped parts, lumps or chips of higher melting polymer therein which does not either scour the barrel of the screw injection molding machinery or screw extruders nor block nor create a dam at the screw flights during the processing of said polymeric material.
