About Auer Signal

Christian Auer and Antonia Korger


Over 100 years of experience in engineering & manufacturing

Our company history starts in 1910, when Mr. Johann Auer founded the company J. AUER Fabrik elektrischer Maschinen. In the early years, the company focused primarily on repairing and manufacturing electric motors. Over the decades, the technical know-how was expanded in various fields. Besides the production of motor sirens, the company also started manufacturing centrifugal and axial fans.

The pioneering step towards the development and production of visual and audible signaling devices was taken in 1986. From that time on, Auer Signal has been committed to the production and development of high-quality signaling devices.

Today, Auer Signal is a family-owned company in its fourth generation and is one of the world's leading manufacturers of signaling technology.
