BrittenChicago Opens Its Doors...
Check out the full press release!
CHICAGO (January 21, 2010) – The Windy City will get a much-needed dose of vibrant color this winter when the doors of BrittenChicago open in a few short weeks. When that happens, parent company Britten Inc. will firmly cement its position as the nation’s leading provider of large-format, full-color printing and promotional displays. At a time when many businesses are shrinking or even closing their doors, Britten is thriving and expanding.
Britten’s expansion into Chicago answers the growing demand from Fortune 500 companies, agencies, graphic designers and other users of creative signage and commemorates the company’s 25th year in business.
“We’re so thrilled to open BrittenChicago and be able to showcase all the incredible products Britten has to offer,” said Britten President/CEO Paul Britten. “Our business continues to grow because we are passionate about we do, and we look forward to bringing our creative solutions to businesses all over Chicago and beyond.”

Something Fun to Wear for Valentine's Day...
One of our grocery store customers recently ordered a big batch of t-shirts, aprons and hats for its employees as part of a holiday promotion.
United States T-Shirt Company (a division of Britten Inc.) was on hand to design the wearables and produce an array of colorful shirts and other products. The hat and apron were vinyl cut in pink and heat transfered to the fabric.
The 880 shirts were screen-printed with 6 colors on the front, and 3 on the back... seen on display upon "Chocolate Dipping Artists" at a grocery store near you!
From Snowy Traverse City to Sunny Hawaii...
Nationwide and even internationally -- all the way over to the Netherlands this month -- Britten's patented BannerSaver® brackets
are the hardware of choice for developers and
municipalities. BannerSaver brackets arenow used on 6 continents (still waiting on that call from Antarctica).
