What Deco Tech Is

More Than an Equipment Distributor

A manufacturer rarely has a printing problem that ends with choosing a machine. The part material, artwork, ink, pretreatment, pad or screen, cliché, fixture, curing method, cycle time and operator setup all have to work together. Deco Tech was built around that reality.

Our role is to help customers connect those pieces. That can mean selecting a standard machine, developing a custom automation, testing an ink system, manufacturing a silicone pad or cliché, building a fixture, producing a screen, training operators or troubleshooting an existing process.

Core Printing Technologies

A Complete Industrial Printing Ecosystem

Deco Tech brings equipment, decorating services, surface treatment and production consumables together so each application can be built around the part, artwork, substrate, volume and durability requirements.

Pad Printing

Precision printing for curved, recessed, textured and irregular parts using a silicone pad to transfer the image from the cliché to the product.

Explore Pad Printing Machines

Screen Printing

Industrial flat and cylindrical screen printing for bottles, tubes, containers, panels and manufactured components requiring controlled ink deposit and durable decoration.

Explore Screen Printing Machines

Direct-to-Object Digital Printing

Industrial inkjet systems for variable, full-color and high-speed decoration directly onto cylindrical and other production objects without traditional screens or clichés.

Explore Digital Printing Systems

Custom Decorating

In-house pad printing and screen printing services for manufacturers that need production decoration, process validation, overflow capacity or a qualified decorating partner.

Surface Treating

Corona, plasma and flame-treatment solutions can improve ink adhesion on difficult plastics and other substrates before pad, screen or digital printing.

Printing Supplies & Consumables

Printcolor inks, silicone pads, clichés, ink cups, screens, squeegees and related production supplies support the printing process long after equipment installation.

From Application Review to Production

The Printing Process Is the Product

A good machine can still produce a bad print if the rest of the process is wrong. Deco Tech can support the complete application path so equipment, consumables and tooling are developed around the actual production part.

1987

Deco Technology Group opened its doors in June 1987 in Southern California with a focus on industrial printing machinery, supplies and practical application support.

Our History

Nearly Four Decades Focused on Industrial Printing

Deco Tech began with a straightforward goal: provide manufacturers with dependable equipment and supplies for decorating plastic, glass and metal products, and back those products with people who understand how the printing process works.

As customer requirements became more technical, our capabilities expanded with them. Pad printing and screen printing machinery grew into automation, tooling, surface treatment, curing, custom decorating, prepress, consumable manufacturing and application testing. More recently, direct-to-object digital printing has added another production technology for applications that benefit from variable graphics, expanded color and digital workflow.

The technology has changed. The basic job has not: understand the part, understand the production requirement, and build a process that works on the factory floor.
