When we first moved in to the new building. It was bigger, cleaner and felt like a fresh start with endless possibilities.” – Keith Parkhurst, Inside Sales, 26 years

Soon after, in 2012 President Michael Black became the new owner of NMC. His vision for future success was fueled by passion, love for his team and the desire to always give back to the community while maintaining transparency throughout his journey.

“The decision behind buying the business—I recognized that we had something just on the cusp of breaking open, but the second piece of it is, the people who have helped me get there, I couldn’t see them all out of a job. So Michelle and I decided that our best was yet to come.” – Michael Black, President & Owner

We have doubled our size and speed through technical advancements, developing our state-of-the-art facility, and embracing new leadership and talent throughout all levels of the organization; we will continue to grow to better serve our customers in all their safety communication needs.

Our Quality: Unrivaled

We strive to exceed our customers’ expectations in all that we do: delivering the highest quality product in the fastest way possible—to protect end users and provide them peace of mind.

Our Community: More Than Signs

At National Marker Company, our word, our relationships, and our ability to deliver and exceed expectations, is treated with the same reverence as the words on our signs, tags, and labels.

Our vision of good business thrives by giving back to our community, our employees, and the environment—it’s the cornerstone of our success.

You can find us actively supporting The Autism Project and local schools through events like Kids Day, Breast Cancer, walk-a-thons, efforts to collect donations and supporting local charities. Michael feels it’s very impactful to help and support the community we live in.

We show employees our dedication through memorable Holiday parties, company picnics, and various wellness programs; we value their contributions and promote camaraderie.
