Tour
Building & Reception
Many of our 1,500 marketing communication customers are able to visit our 15,000 sq. ft. facility on a regular basis. We realize, however, that the majority of our valued Packaging Comp customers across the country never get to see what's behind the curtain.
Pre-Press
We have six seasoned PRE-PRESS operators standing by to process your 'need it yesterday' requests for file manipulation and color matching.
Press Room
Our PRESS ROOM houses a multitude of substrates including SHRINK FILMS, FLEXIBLE BAG FILMS, SBS BOARDS, LABELS, and CLEAR MATERIALS, along with spot foils, metallic and holographic patterns.
The press room can mix PMS colors for the short runs and print WHITE inks using our three INDIGO presses, a HEIDELBERG D.I., and five Preview Systems. No job is too small for our 'on demand' print offering.
Bindery
Our commitment to FINISHING and staying in control during tight deadlines is our biggest investment for you. Any of our competitors can claim to be in our class; however, few have invested in their claims like Creative Type. From die-cutting to UV coating, we are committed to making you shine and keeping your project on schedule...whether the quantity is ONE or 1,000.
Upon completion of your project, you will have received all the features and functions of traditional printing – without the time and cost constraints associated with traditional printing.
Since 70% of the buying decision is made at the store shelf, we pride ourselves on our ability to deliver the look and feel of production while helping you speed up your time to the store shelf. We even have a certified clean room to fill your package with actual product.
