About Us & Our Mission
Based in the vibrant Newcastle region of NSW, Australia, our small but dedicated team at Signal Sentry identified a critical gap in the Australian market: the scarcity of Class 1 certified LED lighting products. This realization sparked our mission to innovate and provide high-quality lighting solutions where they were most needed. The existing market, predominantly filled with low-quality, non-certified 12-24V LED lighting, often misleads customers with vague terms like 'high power' and 'high intensity.' These products, typically in the Class 2 and 3 range, simply don't meet the mark for visibility, especially under the harsh Australian sun.
In response, Signal Sentry set out to offer a reliable alternative. We understood that while Class 2 lighting is suitable for nighttime, the intense UV exposure during Australian daylight hours demands the superior visibility that only Class 1 lighting can provide. Our commitment is not just to meet but to exceed these rigorous standards. Every product we create is Class 1 certified and rigorously tested to endure Australia's unique environmental conditions. We're proud to sign off on each product, guaranteeing its compliance and quality.
We also recognized a significant pricing disparity in the market. The average cost of Class 1 technology-equipped lightbars and beacons in Australia is markedly higher compared to other regions like the USA. Moreover, these products are often scarce in physical stores and exorbitantly priced online. This leaves the utility and construction sectors in Australia, which greatly benefit from high visibility solutions like Class 1 lighting, without access to affordable, quality options. At Signal Sentry, we're changing that narrative by supplying exclusively Class 1 lighting solutions; accessible, affordable, and a standard for safety in the Australian market.
