Every Digital Dish features stories, tips or tricks from digital experts. This month, we spoke with Mark and Justin Strickler of Trilon Graphics. Trilon is a third-generation family business started by Mark’s parents in the 1960s in Manhattan. In 2000, they began the transition to digital printing, investing in a Xerox Docucolor 12. By 2004, they’d decided to sell their offset hardware and go full digital, adding two ColorPress 1000s. By the time they moved to their current location in Moonachie, NJ, they were a fully digital one-stop shop, with equipment for in-house finishing from coating and foiling to stitching, folding and binding.
