Summary

[edit]
Description

Oregon vehicle registration plates are becoming easier to read at night with more reflective background sheeting (right). DMV will start issuing the standard tree plates with the new material in October. DMV’s plate vendor, Portland-based Irwin-Hodson, is using new 3M™ HD License Plate Sheeting. The new HD sheeting is more reflective, secure and durable than the previous material.

The previous plate sheeting used tiny pieces of round glass beads inside other materials to produce reflectivity, which shines outward like a floodlight. The new sheeting is “prismatic” or “high-definition” sheeting. It is similar to road signs, which appear brighter at night.
