Commercial printing in Golden Valley, Minnesota.

Golden Valley mixes corporate campuses with small manufacturers, which means both ends of what we do: long-run brand collateral off the offset presses, and business forms, sheet labels and drilled sheets that keep a shop floor running.

A perfecting press prints the front and the back of a sheet in one pass instead of two. Less handling, one trip through the press, and fewer chances to mark a sheet that is already printed on one side.

The shop-floor half of the same city wants something else entirely: business forms, sheet labels for product and asset tagging, and pads made up in-house. That is old work, and it is still work.

Both ends finish in the same bindery — folding, stitching, three-hole drilling, shrink wrapping, coil and comb binding — so a job does not leave the building half done and come back a week later.

What runs here

It is one floor for all of it: offset printing in process and spot color, digital printing for the short runs, prepress and direct-to-plate, bindery, and direct mail. What comes out of it is on the products page; what it comes off is on the equipment page.
