OUR STORY

David E. Gemmill founded D.E. Gemmill Inc. in 1986 and continues to serve as the company's president. Our journey began with pavement markings and asphalt maintenance services across the Mid-Atlantic region. Decades of experience serving diverse markets have given us the expertise to deliver exceptional results while continuously expanding our geographical reach. Today we are a trusted traffic safety contractor proudly serving Pennsylvania, Maryland, and Delaware.

Recognizing a growing need for reliable access to quality safety products, D.E. Gemmill Inc. launched the Signs & Safety Division — a dedicated branch specializing in MUTCD-compliant traffic signs, safety equipment, and signage solutions. We serve construction crews, public works departments, utility companies, paving and excavating contractors, warehousing operations, fire and EMS departments, municipalities, first responders, emergency responders, safety managers, facilities teams, landscapers, roofers, and more.

As a Factory Authorized Distributor of Ennis Flint / PPG PREMARK® Preformed Thermoplastic we also supply one of the most trusted names in durable pavement marking solutions — lasting 6-8 times longer than traditional paint and trusted by contractors and municipalities across the region.

Together our Pavement Marking Division and Signs & Safety Division make D.E. Gemmill Inc. a true one-stop shop for the traffic safety and road maintenance industry — from pavement markings, thermoplastic striping, MMA, epoxy, and hydroblasting to traffic signs, safety equipment, and work zone protection products.

Our online store at degemmill.com allows us to extend our reach beyond the Mid-Atlantic, shipping traffic signs, safety equipment, and pavement marking products to customers across the United States — bringing the same trusted D.E. Gemmill quality directly to your door, wherever you are.

In everything we do our goal is to be an innovative, reliable, and quality-conscious leader in traffic safety and road maintenance. We embrace new technologies — including our Road Layout Truck equipped with LiDAR technology — and deliver solutions that protect workers, drivers, and communities across PA, MD, and DE and beyond.

  • — S. Walker , City of Lebanon – Traffic Shop

    I would like to let you know that the line painting crew (Donnie, Albert, Scott, Tom, and Possum) did a fantastic job this week. It was a pleasure to work with them and the respect they showed me while I was riding along. Please pass my appreciation along to them.

    Also if you can get Donnie into singing lessons that would be great.  My ears still feel the pain.
