Precision Screen Graphics - PSG

A Brief History of Precision Screen Graphics

Starting with a small shop up north in 1977, Precision Screen Graphics soon moved into larger digs up in Everett. It was there that we established ourselves among many of the local companies and businesses as the place to go for quality screen printing jobs. The combination of in-house art production and the actual printing done by hand proved that we were able to handle almost any job with the highest grade of work.

As our business grew we outgrew our available space and had to move our shop to large digs again. This time we found a large building in Woodinville with over 7000 square feet for us to grow into. With the ability to take on larger jobs at once and keep more equipment and product on-site our business only continued to grow. We even started to offer regular delivery of finished jobs to local companies who needed to get their parts as soon as they were done.

We were doing jobs for a wide variety of personal, commercial, industrial, and non-profit organizations, as well as trying to keep in touch with the customers who only needed a few items at a time.

To better serve these "little guys" and those who might walk in looking for a simple design or shirt we decide to open our little Gift Shop out in front of the large production shop. Know as "The Shoppe", this A-Frame building serves as both a great resource for small jobs but also as an easy to spot landmark when looking for our shop.

We also expanded out from just doing screen printing, allowing us to better serve our customers with a wide variety of services:

• We added vinyl cutting and printing, for both clothing and equipment.
• More recently we also were able to add embroidery to our ever-growing list of services.
•With the addition of our shirt printing machine we were able to take some of the cost and strain off of the printers for doing simple garment jobs, including full color on white shirts at no extra cost per color.
•And finally, we added a laser engraver to our shop, allowing us to do a whole new range of jobs for both new and old customers alike.

We only see good things coming in the future and we plan on being around for a long time to serve both new and old customers alike.
