"WHITCO SIGN AND MFG. CORPORATION SHOWS A BRIGHT FUTURE IN LEDLIGHT ™ Signs"

Whitco Sign continues its mark of "Signs for Intelligent Life" trend

For over 25 years Whitco sign and Manufacturing Corporation [Springfield, Ma] have been doing something different from all other Sign & Mfg. Companies…
Preparing for the Bright future in signage technology.
Sometimes it's challenging enough to read Signs in the daytime. Imagine how difficult those signs are to read during the night? This only increases wasted time and possibly even car accidents. See how Illuminated LEDLIGHT ™ signs from Whitco Sign and Mfg. Corp. can light the way to a bright future for your Community. [The Federal highway commission conducted a study in 2001, that said for every $1.00 spent on Sign improvements, $23.40 is saved in accident costs.
Whitco can help you find your way. Our State-of-the-art LED edge lit technology allows our signs to illuminate using Light emitting diodes.With a photo cell, life expectancy should exceed twenty years, and the total cost of electricity per year will not exceed $12.00 for a 42-inch street name sign. Compare this to the current lighting products which have a life expectancy of less than 1000 hours and need to be replaced every four months costing $160.00 per light. Our LEDLIGHT™ signs pay for themselves 5 fold in the first year alone.
Whitco can adapt the sign to fit single and double post. Flag mounted signs AS SEEN on 34th street in Manhattan, and mast arm parking directional LEDLIGHT ™ signs. Many companies and organizations are going into the future with Whitco's products.

Illuminated LIGHTLIGHT ™ family of signs includes:
- Mast arm & street signs
- Wayfinding & Directional signage
- Parking garage & Transit systems
- Gateways & Welcome signs
- Trail markers & Informational kiosks
- Historical, Cultural & Attraction signage
- Directory & mapping Kiosks
