When LabelGraphics, now LGInternational, started in 1978, family values were an integral part of its daily life and an inherent influence on developing corporate philosophy. Determination, hard work, loyalty and service were always standards during those fledgling years, and its enthusiasm and commitment to customers has never diminished. The company began by producing pressure-sensitive labels and nameplates. This is still a vital part of the business, but now it has much more to offer. Over the years, LGInternational s determination to solve customer s problems has led to many product lines. It has grown into a world-class producer by acquiring the latest technology, expanding its capabilities and developing new products and processes. It is a premier graphics company initiating creative solutions in partnership with customers.
