Made In America
SEPCO is one of the only commercial solar lighting manufacturers that designs, engineers, and assembles every system right here in the United States, in Stuart, FL, and has done so for over 30 years.
Family-Owned American-Made Since Day One
When SEPCO was founded in 1994, we made a decision that has never changed: build everything here. Not because it's a marketing angle, because it's the right way to do business.
We are a privately held, family-owned and operated company. We have no foreign parent company, no overseas ownership stake, and no offshore manufacturing. Every commercial solar lighting system we sell is designed, engineered, and assembled at our facility in Stuart, Florida by American workers.
That's not something every solar lighting company can say and it matters more today than ever.
BAA and BABA Compliant Solar Lighting Systems
SEPCO solar lighting systems can fully meet the requirements of both the Buy America Act (BAA) and the Build America, Buy America Act (BABA), making us a trusted source for federal, state, and municipal projects that require domestic manufacturing compliance.
What Is the Buy America Act (BAA)?
The Buy America Act requires that iron, steel, and manufactured goods used in federally funded infrastructure projects be produced in the United States. SEPCO systems are manufactured in compliance with these requirements, supporting your ability to use federal funding with confidence.
What Is the Build America, Buy America Act (BABA)?
Signed into law as part of the Infrastructure Investment and Jobs Act, BABA expanded domestic content requirements across a broader range of federally funded projects. It mandates that all iron, steel, manufactured products, and construction materials used in covered infrastructure projects be produced in the U.S. SEPCO systems are built to meet these standards.
Why Does This Matter for Your Project?
Specifying a non-compliant product, or one manufactured abroad, can jeopardize federal funding, delay project approval, or require costly substitutions. With SEPCO, compliance is built in from the start. Contact your SEPCO solar specialist to receive documentation supporting your project's compliance requirements.
Why American Manufacturing Matters
Job Creation - Every SEPCO system manufactured in Stuart, FL supports American jobs, in engineering, assembly, logistics, and operations. Your purchase keeps those jobs here.
Supply Chain Reliability - Domestic manufacturing means shorter lead times, faster support, and no exposure to international shipping disruptions, tariffs, or import delays.
Environmental Accountability - U.S. manufacturing operates under strict federal and state environmental standards. Keeping production here means we're held to those standards.
Reduced Freight Impact - Systems built in Florida don't cross an ocean to reach you, unless you are lucky enough to live in Hawaii or the Caribbean. That lowers the overall carbon footprint of our products before they ever generate their first watt of solar power.
