Who We Are

Family owned. Engineering led. Since 1935.

J.W. Speaker designs, engineers, and manufactures LED lighting for vehicles from one campus in Germantown, Wisconsin.

For 90 years we have built lights for the vehicles that work the hardest: on-highway trucks, buses, motorcycles, agricultural and construction equipment, snow plows. Optical, electrical, software, and mechanical engineering sit under the same roof as tooling, SMT lines, and final assembly, so a light can go from first drawing to first shipment without leaving the building.
