Forty years of engineered print.
The story
GPC was founded in 1984 to produce labels and nameplates for industrial customers who needed work that lasted longer than the print run. ISO 9001 certification followed in 1996. Photo-anodized aluminum, membrane switches, digital, and wide-format capabilities were added as customers needed them and as the work earned its place. Today we serve aerospace, defense, medical-device, industrial, and consumer-brand customers across the United States.
The story is not glamorous. It is forty years of getting the substrate right, the ink right, the adhesive right, the timeline right, and the quality documentation right — order after order, customer after customer.
The philosophy
A label is not just a piece of printed material. It's an engineered component that has to survive a defined environment for a defined service life. The companies whose products end up in operating rooms, on flight decks, on factory floors, and in retail aisles are the ones we built GPC to serve.
We are direct with customers about what works, what doesn't, and what we can and can't do. Forty years has taught us that the customers who appreciate that approach are the ones we want to work with.
