OUr STory
Affordable Neon began in 1994 as a small wholesale neon shop serving other sign companies around San Antonio. What started with a single glass-bending table and a passion for luminous color has grown into a 7,000 sq ft, state-of-the-art manufacturing facility and a full-service sign company trusted by businesses across Texas. Three decades later, we still operate under the same family ownership and the same guiding belief: great signage pairs uncompromising craftsmanship with honest, attentive service.
From Wholesale Shop to Full-Service Powerhouse
1994 – Wholesale Roots
We supplied hand‑bent neon exclusively to regional sign fabricators, perfecting our craft and forging alliances that still endure.
1990s2000s – Expanding Capabilities
Demand for comprehensive solutions pushed us to master channel letters, pole signs, and LED retrofits—all produced in‑house for total quality control.
2000–20092010s – “King of Neon”
Artist collaborations and custom sculptures took our work into galleries and national retail chains, cementing our reputation as San Antonio’s only shop with true end‑to‑end neon production.
2010–2019Today – Unified Brand Expertise
Affordable Neon now designs, engineers, permits, fabricates, installs, repairs, and maintains every major sign type—from window accents to 60‑foot pylon landmarks—serving businesses across Texas.
2020 & BeyondCraftsmanship You Can See
Walk through our facility and you’ll find master glass benders coaxing intricate curves from raw tubing, TIG welders fabricating aluminum letter returns to within a hair’s breadth of tolerance, and designers refining layouts until both form and function sing. Because every operation happens on-site, we control the timeline, the budget, and—most important—the quality.

RAY LYNCH
My Name is Ray Lynch and my favorite color is BRIGHT! My work is an attempt to show people how I see the world, a world of light and form. A world of wonder and what could be, a place where liquid light pours like paint. A universe of glowing butterflies flitting about shimmering dancers. This world is where art and science mix to bring stunning images to life. This is my art, my world, my life.
Neon art is an uncultivated field of possibilities. What I find most exciting is that neon art can span such a range of emotions that the adventures could take a lifetime to explore.
As professional glass blower, I have a unique understanding of both the physical and aesthetic properties of the glass. This gives me the ability to design, produce and install my own works. The works are not only manifestations of my visions, but also explorations of the boundaries of the glass itself. With each new project, I strive to expand the limits, both physical and philosophical, of my chosen media.
