Hot Off The Press Podcast

We are so happy to have Max & Shelley from Concord Engraving join us to talk about all of the intricacies of creating polymer plates for letterpress (and offset)! As a company founded in 1933 by Max’s family, they’ve seen many changes in the letterpress world, as well as technological advancements that directly improve the platemaking experience.

An incredibly fast turnaround, amazing customer service and a serious devotion to getting the finest details onto your plates makes them one of our favorite vendors. Tune in to hear about how polymer plates are made and what makes their process as efficient and fine-tuned as possible!

Don’t forget to visit their website concordengraving.com if you need plates made, or their instagram @concordengraving to follow along with Shelley & Max.
