There have always been team sponsors, but what do you do when you have more than one?  How do you put all the names on the jersey? This is one trend we noticed that keeps growing, both here in the United States as well as in Europe. The folks at Stahls’ European Deco facility sent [...]

The FESPA 2010 is underway and I’ve been busy trying to see everything there is to see at this HUGE show that has over 600 exhibitors presenting all aspects of screen, digital and textile printing. Innovation is this year’s theme and I am doing my best to sort out what is really innovation and what [...]

Here’s a case where thinking out of the box led to growing something inside a box. Square Watermelons!  I guess this isn’t really a new idea, the Japanese supposedly have been growing and selling square watermelons for years, but an export company out of Panama just delivered its first shipment of 120 square melons to [...]

Yes, those are boat docks in the background and this is how this whole thing got started. We were doing some repairs to the docks, much easier when you have solid ice to stand on, and we had some leftover wood we needed to get rid of. A good friend said that it’s no problem [...]

If you read some of our predictions for 2010 from various GroupeSTAHL people, you might be wondering how accurate they really were. Well, we’re only into February, but we have received some valuable feedback from customer service reps at Stahls’ ID Direct as to what is going on out there. On average our reps have [...]

It seems I’m not the only one who thinks that the idea of promoting the service of adding lettering to existing or pre-printed garments is a good idea. Josh Ellsworth mentioned that he laughed when he read my blog post this morning about the MI Elite Volleyball club because his already submitted article for the [...]

Well it seems Punxsutawney Phil saw his shadow this morning, which according to tradition means that we are in for another 6 weeks of winter. But that’s no reason to crawl back under the covers. Spring on the way means getting ready for one of your busiest seasons of the year. It’s time to check [...]
