Family Owned Since 1899

The Neyenesch Family

The beginnings of our founding story start way back in 1890, when our founder, W.B. “Bill” Neyenesch, worked at the print shop of the Auditorium Hotel in Chicago. Here, he found his passion for the print industry and honed his skill as an expert in the field. When opportunity called to manage the print shop at the esteemed Hotel Del Coronado (and eventually the U.S. Grant Hotel) in San Diego, Bill,  his wife Mary, and their two young sons, William and John, packed up and came out west. 

After several years at the U.S. Grant Hotel, Bill decided to purchase all of its equipment and set up shop behind their home on K Street. This is where Neyenesch was born.

K street brought so much wonder to our company. It was here that we grew our family business. All of the Neyenesch children were educated in print and learned the ropes before entering into business. John, Robert, James, Mary, Margaret, and Fred—the Neyenesch children—were trained by their father for ten years to help with their burgeoning contracts.

The entire family was involved in innovation and consistent iteration of processes and procedures to create the best possible products. Our commitment to excellence has allowed us to work with premier San Diego organizations like the Mingei Museum, the San Diego Zoo, and our local colleges and universities, to name a few, as well as several national clients. 

Today we consider all team members family, and we are proud to carry out our traditions and printing expertise into the 4th generation. 

From direct mail, packaging, brochures, pocket folders and more, our team’s commitment to cutting-edge printing technology and customer satisfaction can be seen and felt throughout our history.

Our Commitment To Sustainability

Sustainability

For us, progression towards a more sustainable business practice is a top priority. To ensure a brighter tomorrow, we’ve committed to energy conservation and environmental accountability efforts today and source our printing materials from businesses with high ecological standards. 

Accountability

Being held accountable helps us make the smartest and most sustainable decisions. Our Environmental Management System meets the ISO 14001 – 2015 international standard (Certificate #0113010). We are proud to be the only San Diego printer with this certification.

Renewable resources

Because we source our ink from an industry leader in sustainability, our ink base consists primarily of renewable vegetable oils. 

Our printing plate processing is water and chemical free using Kodak Sonora Process Free Plates. We’ve reduced our water consumption by 60%.

We are proud of our eco-conscious decision to be an alcohol-free printing company. Isopropanol alcohol, a material commonly used in fountain solutions and other printing processes, evaporates extremely quickly and has a flashpoint of 12 degrees, meaning that it is highly flammable even at frigid temperatures. Steering clear of materials like alcohol and other VOCs (volatile organic compounds) reduces our environmental footprint. We also utilize VOC capturing systems to reduce VOC released into the atmosphere.

Energy conservation

Using low-energy lights, auto-off switches, and efficient drive motors in our presses allows us to minimize our energy consumption. We also utilize energy storage batteries which reduce our draw against the power grid during ‘high peak’ periods.
