Creative Displays Now! Earns G7® Master Printer Status

Creative Displays Now!, a division of Great Northern Corporation, announces that the KBA Group and prepress team has earned the G7® Master Printer Qualification of the IDEAliance program.

The G7® Master Qualification mark certifies that the company uses the most modern technology, techniques, proofing and press controls, and standards required to produce a close visual match from proof to print. G7 specifies the components of an image that define a similar visual appearance to the human eye.

“The people working with our KBA litho press and associated prepress system have put us in a very select group with this certification,” said Matt Ruggle, Marketing Manager.

“There are only about 20 G7 Master Printer operations in Minnesota, only 355 in the entire United States and very few corrugated sheet plants with a KBA or any litho press that have achieved this certification,” said Jeremy Stimpson, Director of Design and Internal Support.

“This certification sets us apart in our industry and validates the care we take with our customer’s colors and identity in the production of their point-of-purchase displays and specialty packaging,” Stimpson said.
