History & Background

The philosophy and vision of staying true to attention to detail, print quality, professional client support and timeous delivery has seen us grow into one of the leading privately owned corporate commercial printers in South Africa.

Art Printers was established in 1969 when a small one manned print press opened its doors in Kwa-Zulu Natal with the simple and clear aim of providing a high quality printing service to Durban businesses. It all began when Mt Gainchund Ramdutt, saw an opportunity to provide print services, to the printing industry and decided to create a company dedicated to providing a tailored printing experience for the client, coupled with a high quality end product. That vision became a reality in 1969 and Art Printers was launched.

Over the past 50 years that small print press has become one of the leading privately owned corporate commercial printers in South Africa.
