FYI
Printegra,
Peachtree City, Ga., rebranded
its label division. Printegra

under the name, Synergy Label—a

showed that they associated the
company with short run business
documents and not its label division.
The company chose the word “synergy”
because it best describes its
business—combining the sales
and marketing talents of its distributors
with its expertise in label manufacturing.
