Reflective Plastic Sheeting Factory
For nearly all traffic signs on public roadways in the United States, the faces of these signs are covered with a thin plastic material known as retroreflective sheeting. This material is designed to show a bright and uniform color and to reflect light back to a viewer's eyes so as to be visible in both daylight and darkness. If properly applied and sealed to a good surface, nearly all retroreflective sheetings are water, ice, and salt resistant and durable under normal outdoor conditions. To provide color, the sheeting either has colored pigments built into or applied to the material or has a translucent colored overlay film.

Engineer Grade Retroreflective Sheeting
The most basic type of retroreflective sheeting is Engineer Grade (EG), which is also referred to as Type I. EG is made up of small glass beads, which are either enclosed in a translucent pigmented substrate or two layers of prismatic sheeting. Engineer Grade retroreflective sheeting doesn’t have a distinctive pattern. It is recommended for commercial and non-critical traffic sign applications.
When EG sheeting is applied properly, it can be expected to deliver retroreflection for five to seven years. Road signs with EG sheeting are visible from 400 to 600 feet away.
High Intensity Prismatic Retroreflective Sheeting
High Intensity Prismatic (HIP) retroreflective sheeting is also referred to as ‘encapsulated lens’ sheeting. It consists of two layers: an outer translucent pigmented layer and an inner reflective layer with glass beads. The two layers are connected by a ‘lattice,’ which gives the sheeting its distinctive honeycomb appearance.
HIP sheeting is made up of prismatic cells. When a light beam lands on a sign with HIP sheeting, the light hits the sides of the prismatic cells and reflects back at a wider angle than it came. This means more light is reflected back towards the source of the light.
This type of sheeting is typically used for highway signs and when applied properly can last up to 12 years. Visibility of signs with HIP sheeting is from 800 to 1,200 feet away.
Diamond Grade Retroreflective Sheeting
The most efficient type of retroreflective sheeting is Diamond Grade (DG). It returns 60% of the light sent its way and is designed to be used on traffic control signs. DG retroreflective sheeting is visible from between 1,300 and 1,600 feet away and can last for 12 years or longer.
