About Us

Our History

In 2006, we started off with several homemade versions of the product and tested them out at actual traffic intersections. After over a year of testing we saw that the brackets could hold up to extreme weather conditions and eliminated the wear and tear to the signal cables and span wire. We felt like we had a good design and a viable product.

So we started the long and arduous journey of trying to manufacture a product and bring it to market in the US. After saving a considerable amount of money, we were finally able to invest and by the equipment, tooling, dies, material, hardware, packing materials, legal protection, so on and so forth that was needed to enter the market.

We found a contract manufacturer to make the product. They requested that we make certain changes to our already proven design to help make manufacturing the product easier. Being naive and new to the manufacturing business we went along with their suggestions. This new design change led to lots of problems and heartaches. Then the economic meltdown of 2008 happened.

For a small start-up with very little capital this was probably the worst time to enter the market. But wait, there's more! Then our manufacturer's shoddy design change led to problems with the product and caused us to lose much time, money, and suffer greater setbacks.

We maneuvered through it all went back to our original design, and are happy to still be alive and kicking. We are finally seeing our first years of steady and stable growth. And we are looking to bring new products to market.

Who We Are

Tagalucci Group, LLC was founded by Alex Wertelecki and Vance McCoy. We came up with the idea for the Orbit Sign Hanger in 2005 after Hurricane Katrina wreaked havoc on the Gulf Coast. Alex worked as a signal technician for Mobile County in Alabama. During the clean-up effort, Alex traveled along the Gulf Coast to various communities and saw the same failure at various intersections over and over again. The signal cables had been damaged at or near the point where the signage was attached. This gave him the idea that the signage being rigid caused it to be damaged during high winds.

​After a several months time, the first rough prototype of the Orbit was born.

Tagalucci Group, LLC is a small company located in Atlanta, Georgia. We started in 2008 with our product the Orbit™ Sign Hanger. We now manufacture an improved version along with several accessory items. We also distribute the Sky Bracket. Our product is manufactured here in the US. We distribute to the US and Canada.
