About KD Graphics

KD Graphics started in 1985 when owner Karl Dodson began printing t-shirts in the converted garage of his parents’ basement. What started as a fun, part-time hobby of rock concert t-shirt printing for local bands, quickly evolved into a full-time job. Through word-of-mouth and hard work, Karl’s small 4-color manual press screen printing business has evolved into a trusted resource for hundreds of advertising agencies, companies, clubs and organizations.

KD Graphics, LLC has a team of full-time employees with over 200 years of combined knowledge and screen printing experience. We utilize the latest graphics software, automatic equipment and printing processes to produce custom t-shirts and apparel of the highest quality. Our in-house art department has two full-time graphic designers capable of creating anything from simple one-color designs and logos to multi-color illustrations and simulated process separation works of art.

We pride ourselves on expedited printing, quality finished products and a strong commitment to our clients and their satisfaction.
