Company History

By Ford Ector, Founder

It all began in 1982 when I had an idea for the duplication of letters and shapes before the invention of computer routers. From templates with a pen router, I started selling letters and logos to sign companies. Thus RAE (Ralph Alford Ector) Enterprises was born.

Over the next few years many new and exciting ideas were developed. The Rocklite press and the method of applying metal and plastic laminates to the face of EPVC and sign foam were both very successful. In 1987, I married Lisa, the love of my life. Afterwards many changes were in store, including the birth of my firstborn daughter a year later, a move to Springfield, MO, and RAE Enterprises becoming Sign Reflections Inc. The trial of relocating was more than I had anticipated but with much prayer we made a go of it. After hard work and some time, Sign Reflections Inc. acquired many faithful clients there in the Ozarks. The business, along with my family, grew and after seven years and five children we decided to relocate to Athens, Tennessee.

After twelve years here, we are thankful for the change and thankful that over the past years here in East Tennessee. We have seen many of our dreams become reality, including the birth of two more
children and the construction of a larger production building. Watching our ideas develop continues to inspire us. From the beginning of our Hotseal idea in Missouri to the newly completed Hotseal manufacturing facility here in Athens, we are ever looking towards constant improvements.

The school of trial and error has been our method of learning. As a result we have accumulated enough knowledge to provide you with the kind of products and services that many have come to trust and rely on. At Sign Reflections, quality and customer satisfaction is eminent.
