WISPI has been a proud memember of the Racine Area Manufacturers Commerce since 1982. And we recently got the opportunity to be featured in their March 2025 RAMAC Voice quarterly magazine. Below is our feature:
COMPANY OVERVIEW AND PRODUCTS/SERVICES:
So, you want to know more about WISPI? We’re a tight-knit, hard-working group of full-service graphics manufacturers that get the job done the best way from start to finish. What happens in between is nothing short of the highest quality, the most accurate timelines, and just the right amount of laughter and shenanigans sprinkled in. We value our team, our strong customer relationships, delivering quality products, and long standing inside jokes. WISPI’s turning 55 in 2025—still spry, still fly, and proving that greatness only gets better with age.
WISPI’s got it all—vehicle graphics, OEM and safety decals, plus eye-catching advertising and P.O.P. graphics, all available on tons of different materials. We offer top-notch services like digital printing, computer cutting, screen printing, steel rule and thermal die cutting, film making, laminating, and graphic design—basically, we’re your one-stop shop! Our team is full of rock stars who are valued and appreciated, and that shows in the stability and creativity we bring to every project. With years of combined knowledge, we’re quick on our feet and always deliver high-quality results. Plus, our awesome in-house graphic designers are ready to jump into action whenever you need them—and if design services are part of your graphics order? No extra charge!
WHAT TYPES OF CLIENTS ARE YOU TARGETING IN THE COMING YEAR?
We’re excited to work with all kinds of customers, but our ideal match? Original equipment manufacturers who need branding, safety, and instructional decals. These folks often need kitting and just-in-time delivery, which is right up our alley. With our knack for producing optimized run quantities to cut costs and our ability to carry inventory, we’re the perfect partner to keep things running smoothly.
BEST ADVICE: In life you get what you negotiate, not what you deserve.
WHAT IS SPURRING/ENABLING YOUR GROWTH?
The way we connect with potential customers to boost profitable growth has totally transformed over the past five years. But don’t worry—we’ve stayed on our toes and kept crushing our goals! What sets us apart? We’re fun, responsive, and a breeze to work with. That winning combo has earned us some awesome new opportunities, all thanks to happy customers spreading the word.
WHAT ARE YOUR CHALLENGES?
Finding new team members who click with our culture and bring their A-game. Not easy—but we’re up for the challenge! Speaking of challenges, raw material costs have been shooting through the roof over the past four years. Luckily, our lean manufacturing superpowers are in full swing, helping us cut waste and keep operating costs in check. The result? Our customers barely feel the pinch!

Racine’s smack dab in the heart of the Midwest, surrounded by a ton of original equipment manufacturers. People here work hard, take care of their community, stay humble, and always try to do the right thing—plus, they’ve got a great sense of humor to boot!
