Privately owned by First Equity, Imtek, Inc. is a technological leader in the specialty printing industry. When originally acquired, Imtek was losing money. First Equity helped restructure the company, optimizing its proprietary technology and returning its focus to cartographic printing. One of Imtek's most important customers – for close to 60 years - is AAA.


Imtek prints and ships 150 million Triptik maps for AAA each year, coordinating fulfillment to over 1,000 AAA club locations. The fact that Imtek is situated in one of the country's top five distribution centers is of vital importance, and its state-of-the-art distribution facility boasts 99.9% error-free shipping.

Imtek owes its success in large part to its proprietary technology. It has developed systems that integrate automated order entry with printing, and maintains sophisticated information systems to manage complex and rigorous quality control processes. But it is by combining advanced technology solutions with the unique talents of human creativity that companies succeed. Imtek is now experiencing exciting growth with the introduction of new products like Tag-ems - an innovative tool designed to increase catalog sales by assisting potential customers to mark items of interest.
