Rainier Industries provides quality display, shade, and shelter products. Founded in 1896, it is one of the oldest businesses in Washington state. We base decisions on a long-term philosophy without compromising short-term constraints. We build and nurture long-term relationships with teammates, customers, and suppliers.
While our roots are in tent and awning manufacturing, we have grown into other industries, such as wide-format printing and dimensional fabrication. The diversity of our product mix allows our team to work with a variety of technologies which may not be intended for that market. We take great pride in the fact that the majority of all fabrication, printing, and finishing happens under one roof. Our ability to control the entire process means that we can quickly introduce new products to a variety of markets at one time. Our ability to sustain continuous growth over the last 120-plus years is the result of constantly thinking out the box and trying to improve our processes.
We have been very excited for the first year of PRINTING United, built on the foundation of the SGIA Expo, which is bringing our entire industry under one roof. We look forward to seeing technologies being used in other segments of our printing industry which we might be able to leverage. We believe this is a healthy change to the trade show circuit, and will allow us to see everyone without attending multiple trade shows throughout the year. We are excited to meet new suppliers and future partners which we may not have known about before PRINTING United.
