ABOUT US

Display Inks & Supplies has come a long way, the founders having a combined 85 years’ experience in the printing business. The founders behind the company, both whom were successful entrepreneurs decided to focus their energies on growing together, thus in 2017 Display Inks & Supplies Inc. opened their doors. The team now focuses on three core beliefs…

core beliefs

beliefs

THE ENVIRONMENT

At Display being environmentally conscious means making sure we leave the Earth better for our children. From production to the materials we use we take an environmental approach. Our toxic and non-soluble products are that way because of the substrate they are printed on requires it, however many of our inks are water soluble and non-toxic.

QUALITY

Quality is at the core of everything we do. Being an ink manufacturer means that our product is used to make something greater. Our clients –large and small- are trusted to deliver a quality product, and in turn trust us to contribute to that. We hold quality paramount because our client’s trust us to.

RELATIONSHIPS

Display Inks & Supplies would be nothing without relationships. The founders and their relationship with one another, along with their clients. Thank you for choosing us year after year.
