Charleston Industries, 1nc. is headquartered in Charleston, Mississippi and was founded in 1965 as a supplier of signage and lighting to the oil industry. In 1973, Charleston Industries was acquired by Petersen Aluminum Corporation, one of the nation's largest suppliers of architectural metals and fabricated systems. The merger of these two companies resulted in the development of a complete line of architectural signage.

At Charleston, we believe that a sign must properly convey its message while becoming an integral part of its environment. Our corporate goal is to combine quality components and good workmanship with competitive prices and quick delivery. The result is a complete line of architectural signage that directs traffic wherever people congregate. Universities, office parks, shopping malls, industrial parks, hospitals and hotels are just some of the sites suited for Charleston Industries, Inc. post and panel signage. This catalog outlines our capabilities and the breadth of our product line. We encourage you to contact us directly if we may be of assistance.

Custom colors and color matching are available within standard lead times. Minimum quantities and charges apply to various options associated with some systems. Contact manufacturer for details
