Since its inception in 1988, WSI Sign has grown from a small sign shop in Bolton, Ontario to become a premier architectural sign manufacturer in North America working with award winning environmental graphic designers and architects. Recently, WSI combined the operations of their WSI and KING divisions by expanding the existing KING plant and offices into a 45,000 sq. ft. modern manufacturing plant equipped with state-of-the-art equipment and technology. Their highly skilled sign fabricators and craftsmen create custom sign and related architectural products limited only by their clients’ imagination. WSI’s diversified manufacturing capabilities allow them to keep most of the manufacturing processes in-house, affording them greater control of quality, scheduling and cost.
