Brookfield-based A/E Graphics | Epic Color has acquired Jackson-based custom printing services company B&L Graphic Solutions.
“The acquisition of B&L Graphic Solutions will provide A/E Graphics & Epic Color further growth and diversification by expanding into new markets,” Tom Taubenheim, president of A/E Graphics said. “Added services include corrugated printing and prototyping for retail displays, high volume yard signs, banner and poster printing and small format color printing including custom business cards and envelopes along with complete fulfillment services.
“B&L clients will now have added services like wall/window/floor graphics design, printing and installation, environmental branding, and color plan printing,” Taubenheim said.
B&L Graphic Solutions will continue to operate with the same company name, according to a news release.
A/E Graphics was originally founded in Brookfield as a division of Green Bay Blue Print Company. In 1987, the company moved into a then newly built location on North 124th Street, which is the corporate headquarters today. In 1999 a branch was opened in Milwaukee’s Historic Third Ward, later expanding twice due to growth.
Epic Color, a division of A/E Graphics, opened in 2009 to meet the growing demand for custom signs and displays.
The ownership of A/E Graphics | Epic Color is comprised of Dan Schmidt, Joe Shaw, Tim Davis, and Tom Taubenheim.
