Ventex Sign Lighting History
Powering Sign Lighting Since 1993
From its humble beginnings as a small technology company based in Calgary, Alberta, Canada, Ventex entered the US market in 1993 under the name Bertonee-Ventex. After moving its operations to the Florida, Bertonee-Ventex was granted its first UL license in 1997 for our electronic neon power supply technology.
With the introduction of the Generation III UL 2161 Listed Products, Ventex has become the world’s leading manufacturer of electronic power supplies for neon sign lighting. Generation III Electronic Neon Power supplies helped revolutionize how self-contained channel letters were made, dramatically reducing sign manufacturing costs and energy consumption by permitting more shallow depths.
In 2009, the same technology that made Ventex the industry leader in neon power supplies became the basis for the Venbrite® LED Sign Lighting System. Powered by the sign industry’s only constant current LED power supplies, and wired in series just like neon, Venbrite is simply the most reliable, energy efficient LED sign illumination system available in the sign lighting industry.
