We provide digital polymer plate making at the highest standards with exceptional customer service.
Concord Engraving was founded in 1933 by Floyd Otto Sr. Four generations later, The Otto Family legacy lives through father and son, Peter and Max Otto.
Initially, Concord Photo Engraving only made engravings. The negatives used to produce the engravings were made by taking actual photographs, no computers. Hence the name, Concord Photo Engraving. As the generations passed, the business evolved into the digital pre-press trade shop it is today, Concord Engraving. The 2nd generation introduced Flexography by molding rubber. The 3rd generation, Peter, introduced photopolymer. The 4th generation, Max, introduced digital photopolymer plate making and letterpress polymer. Today we produce flexographic photopolymer & letterpress polymer.
