Get your products listed on MPI’s Approved Products List (APL) today! MPI’s APL is both included in the American Institute of Architect’s MasterSpec and used directly by contractors, specifiers, asset owners, and more to find the right product for the job. Products listed in the APL have been tested to ensure they meet rigorous performance requirements. Testing is varied for each category, and includes ASTM methods for such as flexibility, gloss, adhesion, accelerated weathering, and several in-house developed tests to ensure the products can perform where they’re used. Testing for most categories is biennial, being set on a two-year schedule, so you can have confidence that the listed products are still being checked for performance.
