About this file
This document is a Materials Producer List (MPL) attachment issued by the Texas Department of Transportation (TxDOT) for Invitation for Bid (IFB) 304T-26-550A2.3 Traffic Control Devices, establishing pre-qualified manufacturers of reflective sheeting and sign face materials compliant with DMS-8300 standards. The attachment identifies approved manufacturers and their products for various sign types including Type A (standard white signs), Type B (colored signs), Type BFL (fluorescent signs), Type D (high-intensity signs), conformable reflective sheeting, construction work zone devices, colored transparent films, screen inks and additives, and digitally printed sign inks. Products listed on the MPL are pre-qualified for use without further testing unless deemed necessary by the Project Engineer or Materials and Tests Division (MTD), though the Department reserves the right to conduct random sampling and audits. Five primary manufacturers are pre-qualified: 3M, Avery Dennison Corporation, Nippon Carbide Industries Inc., ORAFOL Americas Inc., and Aura Optical Systems, each assigned a producer code and decal code for identification purposes.
Most pre-qualified products carry Buy America Status of "Compliant" with a compliance expiration date of October 1, 2026, indicating certification under 23 CFR 635.410 and 2 CFR part 184 for federally obligated projects after October 1, 2025. However, certain Nippon Carbide Industries products require project-level certification documentation for each delivery. Temporary products used for construction work zones are exempt from Buy America Construction Work Zone Device requirements. Contact information for each manufacturer is provided for pre-qualification inquiries, and additional information regarding qualification procedures and testing protocols is available from TxDOT's Coatings, Calibration and Traffic Materials Section at (737) 291-8064 or via email at DMS_Prequal@txdot.gov. The document establishes standardized material specifications using typical sign standards for 2013 (TSR-13).

Attachment I
Sign Face Materials
The following manufacturers of reflective sheeting have complied with the requirements of DMS-8300, “Sign Face
Materials.”
The materials listed below are pre-qualified for use when DMS-8300 is referenced. These materials require no further testing before use unless deemed necessary by the Project Engineer or the Materials and Tests Division
(MTD). Tex-720-I, “Sampling Sign Face Materials,” describes the sampling method.
The Department reserves the right to conduct random sampling of pre-qualified, certified materials for testing and to perform random audits of test reports. Department representatives may sample material from the manufacturing plant, the project site, and the warehouse. MTD reserves the right to test samples to verify compliance with DMS-8300.
For qualification on the MPL contact DMS_Prequal@txdot.gov following the pre-qualification procedure of DMS-
8300. For additional information contact the MTD’s Coatings, Calibration and Traffic Materials Section at (737)-
291-8064.
A Buy America Status of “Compliant” indicates the manufacturer has certified the listed product is compliant with
23 CFR 635.410 and 2 CFR part 184 (as part of the Gold Star certification program) as classified by the Buy
America Material Classification Sheet for projects federally obligated after October 1, 2025. Products with a Buy
America Status of “Project Level Certification Required” require producer certification documentation for product delivered to each project.
