Serigraph Career Opportunities

Serigraph Inc., one of the nation's leading suppliers of screen and offset-printed graphics for plastic decorating, was started by an entrepreneur in his garage in 1949 and has grown to become one of the largest industrial printers in the world. The company employs 900 people in West Bend, WI and operates out of five manufacturing facilities. Serigraph is a growth-oriented company, shipping product to over 30 countries worldwide. The acquisition of Carvel Print, a screen and offset printer in Queretero, Mexico further established Serigraph as an international leader in the industry.
