Steel and Aluminum Poles for Lighting, Traffic Control, Signage and Communication

Since introducing our first light pole products in 1906, Union Metal has developed a strong tradition of innovation. Over the years, we’ve pioneered the design and manufacture of our aluminum and steel poles to keep up with the demands of our customers. Our many significant advancements — including the first tapered tubular pole, the first traffic signal pole, and the strongest fluted pole in the industry — have made us a leader in the field.

We serve an industry trusted to enhance the safety, convenience, and enjoyment of millions of people across the country. We design, manufacture, and provide aluminum and steel products for a wide range of applications, and ensure that each one is sturdy, flexible, and appealing enough to earn the name Union Metal.

The highest-grade raw materials — American steel and aluminum — are selected for our process, and then engineered for enhanced physical characteristics. From there, these materials are shaped and reinforced to meet the specifications of the custom or catalog design our customer has chosen.

A Range of Lighting Pole and Support Applications

The flexibility of Union Metal's manufacturing process provides our customers with nearly unlimited options for their lighting solutions. From small and decorative sign posts to massive high mast and arena lighting structures, Union Metal's design team creates solutions for applications including:

Ideal for restoration, renewal, and new development projects, our Nostalgia Series offers classically-styled street and residential lighting, traffic poles, and luminaires that bring a distinct old-world charm to modern urban settings. These products feature original pole designs dating back to the early 1900s, and offer an opportunity for cities and towns to install the exact same pole designs that Union Metal put on their streets nearly a century ago!
