The Ultimate Label and Decal
Manufacturers

 |
|
The nerve center of our turnkey decal and label manufacturing operations eliminates the need for our clients to identify second and third source vendors. Impact Label has strategically situated its plant locations in Kalamazoo, MI, Chicago and Hixson, TN (Chattanooga). The capabilities at each site allow us to assign jobs to any plant to meet any customer production requirements and deadlines. Workloads can be transferred or distributed throughout the other divisions to meet any contingency. Impact’s intention, throughout the product cycle, is to internally produce all of the inputs that are used in the creation of the final product. This capability enables us to carefully monitor product quality and enhancing streamlining of the production process. Our in-house label and decal capabilities are so complete that we’re a completely sealed shop environment. All negatives and plates are produced internally including: silk screening, flexographic printing, letterpress printing, and offset printing plates. This guarantees complete confidentiality, eliminating outside vendor concerns. Utilizing state-of-the art label and decal manufacturing technology in all areas of operations, ensures that we can create for you the optimal decal or label.
