About Us SignArt is a nationally ranked sign manufacturer, with facilities in Michigan and Oregon. The company was founded in 1971 as a design, manufacturing, installation, and maintenance provider of commercial, electrical, and architectural signs.

The name SignArt evolved from our corporate sensitivity to a growing public awareness of the visual environment. As time has passed, this corporate philosophy has proven very successful. We have succeeded in balancing general community needs with the commercial, industrial, or institutional needs of our customers. SignArt's continued success comes from working smart and keeping an ever alert eye to the future. Our attention to providing quality, value, and customer service is supported internally through extensive investment in the areas of computerization (CAS, CAE, CAD, CAM and database analysis), product development, comprehensive employee training and education, and safety and quality assurance programs. Selecting a Sign Manufacturer When it comes to the complexity of lighted and architectural sign products, finding the right supplier may at first appear difficult. However, it does not have to be difficult if you evaluate the providers by determining and evaluating the following: How long have they been in business? Do they present themselves and their product professionally? Is on-premise signage the company's primary product? Have they substantially demonstrated their abilities and capabilities? Who are their customers? Are they professionally managed with a consistent track record? Does the proposal reflect value through quality as well as through price? Do they respond quickly, efficiently, and in a comprehensive manner? What skills have they demonstrated in obtaining permits and zoning variances? Production Capabilities SignArt's capital and training investment per employee is unparalleled in the sign manufacturing industry. This investment reflects our dedication to research and improvements in our technology, processes, and ultimately our products. This technology and ability is apparent in our centrally located, modern facilities, and allows our customers to benefit from a significant and consistent edge in the value they receive. SignArt has over 100,000 square feet of administrative, manufacturing, and storage facilities in Michigan and Oregon. At these facilities are all personnel and equipment necessary to perform any project with efficiency. SignArt's dedication to being a technology and productivity leader is exemplified by: SignArt LED and neon products are produced by formally trained technicians with precise tolerances achieved through the newest equipment. Material specification and usage which is optimized through second and third generation computerized engineering programs which continue to evolve. The uniformity, standardization, and consistency achieved through the use of process descriptions, database files, and computer-aided manufacturing machines. The knowledge that correct manufacturing procedures are not compromised due to lack of the proper equipment or an untrained worker. Customer Service Customer Service is not just a buzz word plugged conveniently into the SignArt vocabulary. Customer service and value are tangible products, and are the most important elements of our tradition. Our customer service is proactive . . . we determine the needs of our customers, provide the administration, organization, and experience in producing the product with the sense of urgency needed to fulfill the customer's delivery requirements and exceed their expectations. Comprehensive sign design and products are provided to clients of all types and sizes. SignArt is proud of the fact that almost every product we provide is designed, manufactured, installed, and maintained by our own staff. For national accounts, our network of experienced subcontracting installers provide local expertise and influence on the permitting process. From a single, small directional sign, to the multi-location, complete turnkey name/logo changes, SignArt does it all . . . efficiently and professionally. No matter how large or complex the project, SignArt account supervisors have the experienced administrative, technical, and production staff, and the systems in place that are necessary to achieve optimal performance and customer satisfaction. Our product is much more than the physical sign which at some point is installed. It is the visual format of a sign, color selection, development of a complete sign system, the process of obtaining zoning variances, or the management of a multi-location name change. Our comprehensive management, communication, and motivational systems are continuously evolving. Whether a project involves one location or a hundred, we have the ability to perform. These systems allow us to track each order during its project cycle, so we are able to keep the customer informed on its progress. This methodology also allows us to affect necessary changes quickly and easily. Your project will be assigned to an account management team which will work with you to determine your sign needs and coordinate every aspect of the process from inception to completion. They will optimize your signage within demographic, site, location, governmental, and budgetary constraints, and present multifaceted proposals with alternatives in a clear, concise, well-organized format to assist in your decision making process. It is our goal to provide the product you need . . . doing it right the first time, every time.
