High-Performing Traffic Signs
Here are three important characteristics for reflective sheeting to consider:
-
Retroreflective Material for Increased VisibilityBrightness matters. You can download our white paper on traffic sign brightness here.
-
DurabilityWith 3M, you can count on long-lasting and effective signs that help drivers get home safely.

Observation and Entrance Angles
In this demonstration, you’ll see how elevated seating positions impact sign visibility and how higher-performing sign sheeting can help.
Traffic sign fabrication and orientation also matter in creating signs that reflect from different angles. Learn more about road sign orientation uniformity here.
