1 You will notice that the catalog is about 100 pages smaller, but still contains all the products you need from NMC!

We’ve consolidated all signs into a section at the front of the book. Based on your feedback, we found that positioning products throughout the book made it difficult for you to find them.

2

Finally, notice all signs are now alphabetical by section – again to make it easier for you to find the products you are looking for!
