Unity History
Unity has been an innovative manufacturer of automotive, truck
and emergency vehicle lighting products for over 80 years.
The company was started in 1918, on the south side of Chicago.
The company evolved into single, private ownership under Henry
Rue Gross in 1923.
In the mid-1920’s, Unity started production of its line of post-mount
spotlights.
The company expanded into the manufacture of automotive and
heavy-duty truck road lights in the 1930’s.
Shortly after moving to its current 160,000 sq. ft. facility in
1960, Unity was able to expand into the manufacture of emergency
lighting products for police, fire, and other emergency vehicles.
Throughout the history of motorized vehicles, Unity has adapted to
customer needs and made products that improve the safety of motorists,
truckers, off-roaders, police, fire, ambulance, utility, military,
farmers, wreckers, snow plows and services vehicles of all kinds during
nighttime activities and emergencies.
Today, Unity is the world’s largest
manufacturer of post-mount spotlights.
The company is also a major OE supplier of both auxiliary and emergency
lighting products.
Its
product range includes post-mount spotlights, roof-mount spotlights, fog
lights, driving lights, off-road lights, work lights, hand-held
