"I want to thank you personally for the fine job your firm did in printing the catalogue for my upcoming exhibition at The Grolier Club, "The Great George" Cruikshank & London's Graphic Humorists. The images with their colors are very fine, as is the text. Your work makes Jerry Kelly's wonderful design shine as it should. There is also a very special feel about it for me that surely has something to do with having it printed in Lewiston, Maine. I am a life-long summer resident of Vinalhaven where, as you may know, Robert Indiana lived and taught fine printing for many years."

Being a Maine printing company, Penmor is proud to be a leader in the movement toward environmentally responsible printing and plant operations.

These initiatives include  the use of Solar PowerVOC Free UV curing inks, installation of energy efficient lighting throughout our facility, and a program to recycle 100% of our paper waste and printing plates.

Additionally, we have received FSC® certification. This certification indicates that Penmor supports the highest standards in the market of paper and printing process as put forth by the Forest Stewardship Council.
