Founded in 1997 by Robert Davis (CEO), AVID started business in the Action Sports industry by providing sublimation on snowboards and wakeboards. At the time, AVID had just one transfer machine. The company sourced sublimation paper from East Coast suppliers and was faced with three main challenges: low quality, long lead times for deliveries, and high cost for volume purchased.

Davis set out to change the industry and raise the bar. He established AVID Ink as a full-service sublimation company with the purpose of becoming exemplary in integrity, quality, service and delivery, and value.

AVID Ink committed technologically and financially to become the industry leader in four key areas:

• Graphic Design
• Printing
• Production
• Customer Service

Today, AVID Ink is one of the world’s leading sublimation printing companies. AVID’s Art Department houses innovative designers with a library of 9,000+ open line designs. The Printing and Production facilities include pre-press, digital, and four-color sublimation machinery, supported by AVID’s Color Profile Library to deliver the highest color accuracy. Certified Placement Engineers undergo extensive training to ensure quality and placement accuracy of artwork at point of transfer. AVID’s team of Certified Customer Service Project Managers effectively work to understand the unique needs of each client and guarantee our products are delivered on time and true to design.
