OUR STORY…
Colortech, Inc. was founded in 1980 by current owner Patrick “Pat” Sullivan and three partners. The company initially operated as a graphic arts trade shop handling pre-press color separations and plate prep work. Soon after the company’s startup, Pat’s son, Patrick ”Rick” Sullivan joined, learning the necessary skills and trade practices of the industry. As the company business steadily grew, so did Colortech’s pre-press capabilities. This led to the introduction of print services in 1985.

1996 was a pivotal year—The Sullivans became sole owners of Colortech, and Patrick “Rick” Sullivan was installed as president. Under their leadership, the company identified new opportunities to add to the list of existing services and product capabilities. Simultaneous with our capabilities growth, our client list has also experienced significant increases—reaching key markets in food, publishing, manufacturing, pharmaceutical, and transportation.
Rick's son, Austin Sullivan, joined the company as a teenager in 2006, originally assisting with much of the print shop work. Over the years, he worked up in rank until becoming a sales executive in 2015. Since then, he has continued to build strong relationships with clients and places value in customer service. Austin is also a photographer for our sister company, Blue Cardinal Photography.

EXCELLENT Based on 105 reviews Zach KriseMarch 26, 2024 I recently had a great experience with Colortech. Austin and all of the employees I interacted with were very personable, responsive, and took a very non-standard request from me, talked through it and made it happen. I can’t recommend them enough and will definitely be going to them in the future for my needs! Thanks again!

Ben SchlossNovember 10, 2023 Have been working with Colortech for several years now and have nothing but great things to say. They are very responsive, quality of work is excellent and their pricing is always fair. They are a family owned company and it always feels that way in dealing with them. Austin, our sales rep, is a great guy who takes the time to do the little things and ask the right questions. He stops by our office every now and then just to say hello and drop off delicious Lebanon pretzels. Highly recommend! StoneRidgeJuly 27, 2023 We have partnered with Colortech with many of our business printing needs. Not only is their printing quality incredible but their customer service is off the charts.

Always great pricing and quality product. On many occasions they have exceeded expectations with getting me important printed literature quickly to meet my own deadlines!! Customer Service is A-one! Taylor ShepleyMay 17, 2023 Colortech helped me turn an old, brittle blueprint of my family feed store into a high quality print for me to frame in my office. I wasn’t sure if this was something that could be done, or if anyone was willing to attempt, but they said yes without hesitation. Turnaround was quick, and super affordable. They treated me like family when I walked in, and explained the process to me so we both had a full understanding of what was to be delivered. Adam KuhnApril 26, 2023 Austin and his family do a great job. Highly recommend! Freddy LongApril 23, 2023 Very Professional and the Highest Quality. Austin is a great man!
