YESCO Completes New Signage for Chandler Airpark in Chandler, Arizona
We’re thrilled to announce the completion of a stunning new signage project for the Chandler Airpark Area Employment Corridor in Chandler, Arizona.
The project, initiated in early 2022, was part of Chandler’s ongoing placemaking and branding initiatives aimed at enhancing the identity of key areas. The City of Chandler engaged YESCO to design and construct seven new displays, strategically located throughout the airpark to highlight the area’s importance and provide clear, impactful wayfinding.
The design process began with a series of conceptual options created by YESCO’s design director Mark Ritenour, which were reviewed and refined in close collaboration with the city’s economic development team. Design options were then presented to the city leadership and stakeholder groups to receive feedback and community buy-in. A final design was selected that incorporates the city’s branding while evoking an aviation theme fitting for the Chandler Airpark Area. The design’s modern aesthetic, includes unique metal swooshes that complement the fixed-height lettering on the signs.
“We initiated this project with the goal of enhancing the Chandler Airpark Area’s brand identity and sense of place,” said Michael Winer, City of Chandler Economic Development Project Manager. “YESCO understood this goal and we are thrilled with how the signs turned out. It was a pleasure working with Kelly Chipman, our account rep, and the rest of the YESCO team.”
FUN FACTS: ● YESCO created a custom slab footing with bolt-on supports, ensuring the signage can be relocated in the future if necessary. ● The signs use reflective lettering to help them be visible in the evening without the need to install and maintain electric illumination. ● The project took approximately 1485 man-hours of labor to complete.
“This project was an exciting opportunity for YESCO to blend functionality with artful design,” said Jeff Young, executive vice president, YESCO. “Creating signage that not only stands out but also serves the evolving needs of the Chandler Airpark was a fulfilling challenge.”

YESCO was in a recent spotlight by Defender Safety Helmets after adopting their new type II helmets:
“YESCO , a 104-year-old company founded in 1920 by Thomas Young, continues to uphold its legacy of innovation and safety by adopting the Defender Safety H2 Type 2 Safety Helmet.
Isaac Gallegos, Safety Director at YESCO, has been instrumental in recommending the adoption of the new helmets: ‘We’ve received positive feedback from our employees about the helmets,’ said Gallegos. ‘They not only find them more comfortable but also feel that they significantly enhance overall compliance and safety.’
The Defender Safety H2 Type 2 Safety Helmet offers superior protection by guarding against both top and side impacts. This is a major step up from traditional Type 1 helmets, which only provide top impact protection. With the addition of chin straps, the H2 helmets also ensure the helmets stay securely in place during high-risk activities”.
We’re proud to lead the industry in safety and innovation and will continue to prioritize the well-being of our employees and pave the way for future advancements.
