A Brief Heading

Our Story

Design Label Systems Inc. was founded in March 1989 as a specialist in label converting, built on a simple but forward-thinking idea: packaging would no longer be static.

Even in the late 1980s, our founder and CEO saw a clear shift taking shape. Products were changing more frequently, regulations were evolving, and packaging was becoming a critical source of information for customers. From ingredient updates to new certifications, labels needed to adapt quickly—and businesses needed a partner they could count on to keep up. That’s where DLS began.

Flexographic and Digital printing

Since then, we’ve grown into a national leader in flexographic and digital printing, continuously investing in technology, people, and processes to meet the evolving needs of our customers. What hasn’t changed is our commitment to reliability, flexibility, and collaboration.

At DLS, experience runs deep—our team’s combined expertise spans decades across printing, engineering, design, and production. But what truly defines us is how we work together. We believe the best outcomes come from partnership, open communication, and a shared focus on solving problems.

What sets us apart:
