3M™ Diamond Grade™ DG³ Reflective Sheeting 4084 Fluorescent Orange, Configurable roll

• 3M’s best solutions for sign positions outside of primary headlight illumination
• Meets today’s highest published performance specifications
• One of the brightest durable sheeting for cost-efficient guidance
• Provides level of luminance needed by older drivers
• Accommodates drivers of large vehicles
• Short, medium and long sight distances
• Disadvantaged sign placement locations such as overhead or left shoulder
• Fluorescent orange for added visibility during dawn, daytime, dusk and inclement weather
• Science supports better signage: A distinct correlation exists between sign brightness and a driver’s ability to comprehend the sign’s message. Comprehension directly relates to reaction time, which can mean the difference between safely navigating a certain roadway environment or being in an accident. One study found that where brighter, more visible signs were installed, crash numbers fell by 25 to 46 percent over three to six year period
• Designed to meet the needs of all drivers now and years from now: 3MTM Diamond GradeTM DG3 Reflective Sheeting incorporates “full cube” technology for optimal performance. Its optical elements are 100 percent efficient, returning almost 60 percent of available light – nearly double that of traditional prismatics. DG3 sheeting is designed as a replacement for all types of reflective sign sheetings in use today. It performs at all sight distances – including short and medium sight distances, and where signs are positioned in disadvantaged locations such as overhead or on the left shoulder.
• Better for the environment: Not only is 3M Diamond Grade DG3 sheeting bright and durable, it’s better for the environment. The manufacturing processes for prismatic sheeting reduce VOC emissions by 97 percent and energy consumption by 72 percent compared to standard engineer grade sheeting processes. Now that’s a change for the better.
• Delivers optimal performance where and when drivers need it most
• Available in standard and fluorescent colors for highly visible signs from day to dusk to dark
• Drivers today need more help on the roadway: Several factors render much of today’s installed signing less effective in providing the visual guidance drivers need. Visually/optically aimable (VOA) headlights, with their horizontal cut-offs, reduce the visibility of signs by as much as 53 percent (depending on sign location). Diverse vehicle sizes – from cars to SUVs to semi-tractors – create vastly different observation angles. Changing demographics also play into the need for improved signage. Older drivers have slower response times and decreased visual acuity at night

3M™ Diamond Grade™ DG³ Fluorescent Reflective Sheeting Series 4080 offers superior reflectivity at short and long distances, fluorescent for added visibility during dawn, daytime, dusk and inclement weather

Full cube, microprismatic optics are nearly 100% efficient, resulting in sheeting that returns 58% of available light double the efficiency of truncated cube corners.
