Sign Fab® Welcomes UFB Fabrication to the Family

UFB Fabrication is pleased to announce that it has been acquired by Sign Fab®, a leading wholesale sign manufacturer with nationwide reach.

“This brings together two strong companies to create a more capable, more scalable wholesale partner for sign professionals,” said Candida Seibert, CEO of Sign Fab®, Inc.

While both companies serve the wholesale sign industry, their strengths are highly complementary. UFB Fabrication has built its reputation on custom fabrication, monument signs, and pylon signs, while Sign Fab® is widely recognized for large-scale channel-letter manufacturing, cabinets, printing, and fast lead times. The acquisition expands production capacity, broadens product depth, and increases operational flexibility for wholesale sign partners.

The companies have operated for decades in the nationwide sign-manufacturing market as competitors, neighbors, and collaborators. This acquisition formalizes a partnership both teams had been working toward for more than a year and positions UFB Fabrication for continued growth with added resources and support.

“By combining our expertise and capacity, we help our retail sign partners, contractors, installers, and identity firms bid confidently, deliver consistently, and grow with a dependable wholesale team behind them,” Seibert said.

Strengthening Our Capabilities for the Future

This acquisition represents a positive step forward for both UFB Fabrication and Sign Fab®, bringing together complementary strengths and a shared commitment to quality, service, and innovation.

By integrating UFB Fabrication’s custom fabrication capabilities with Sign Fab®’s established offerings, along with sister companies Encompass More, Inc. and Charleston Sign Manufacturing, we are becoming part of a stronger, more resilient supply chain built to better serve the wholesale sign industry. Together, this expanded network delivers:

  • Increased production capacity and manufacturing scale

  • Faster turnaround times across key sign product categories

  • Broader capabilities to support complex and large-scale projects

  • Enhanced logistics, delivery reach, and nationwide shipping support

Collectively, the Sign Fab® family now represents a multi-division manufacturing and company-operated delivery network with nearly 200 employees and more than 160,000 square feet of production space. This scale allows us to deliver the specialization, reliability, and logistical support today’s sign professionals expect—while UFB Fabrication continues to do what it does best.
