What North American Signal Company does

North American Signal Company is a privately held, family-owned American manufacturer of automotive, truck, and industrial warning lights, sirens, and related accessories, founded in 1962 by Julius Neiman and headquartered in Wheeling, Illinois. The company designs and builds LED, strobe, and revolving light products across 13+ categories — including 360-degree beacons, mini-light bars, sequencing and flashing light bars and arrows, surface and flush mount warning lights, battery-powered portable units, LED work and spot lights, back-up alarms, UL Listed hazardous-location models, and replacement parts — with approximately 95% of units manufactured in-house at its 45,000 square-foot facility (including a 20,000 square-foot warehouse added in 2003). Proprietary technical features include the Micro-Burst mini-strobe series with a 3-year warranty, multi-voltage circuitry, weather-sealed and shock-resistant housings, quad-flash and double-flash strobe patterns, and low-profile LED traffic assist units as small as 2 inches tall.

The company sells primarily through a direct-to-consumer e-commerce storefront on nasig.com with shopping cart and RFQ functionality, supplemented by the Thomas.net B2B industrial marketplace, a toll-free direct sales line, and active participation in industry trade shows (AAPEX, FBA Meeting, Pave/X, ATSSA, and NTEA). Its customer base spans five verticals — police and law enforcement, construction and road work, government and municipal fleets, trucking and commercial fleet operations, and industrial/manufacturing facilities — served via unit pricing that ranges from roughly $20 for personal safety accessories to $1,075 for high-end 18-LED light bars. The business is ISO 9001:2015 certified, holds UL Listings on key product lines, and offers warranties up to five years on LED products, reinforcing a positioning as a quality-focused, established niche manufacturer serving safety-critical end markets in North America.
