We Stick With You!

A small team that knows labels

TemPac is a second-generation, family-owned business in North Canton, Ohio. We supply labels and scale-and-print systems to food and beverage producers, including meat processors, cheese makers, delis, dairies and beverage makers. When you call, one of the five people on this page picks up.

Our story

Dave Temming founded TemPac in 2001. He had spent more than 20 years in printing by then, and he kept seeing the same problem: small businesses couldn't get quality printing without ordering thousands of pieces they didn't need.

So he built TemPac around a different deal. Order what you need, when you need it, at a price that makes sense, and get professional results whether you run one cutting room or a dozen. That is still how we quote every job.

In December 2021, TemPac acquired EconOmarker of Tulsa, Oklahoma, when its long-time owner, Dave's friend Mark Wiltshire, retired. That added a simple stand-alone scale and printer to the line, and a group of customers we still look after today.

Dave retired in 2022 and sold the business to his daughter, Robin Bacopoulos. TemPac is now a second-generation, family-owned company. It's still small, still in North Canton, and still run on what Dave started: know the customer, answer the phone, and stand behind the order.

How we work

Most of our printing is done by partner presses. We think that's better for you, and here's why.

  • One accountable contact

    We handle specs, the artwork and prepress check, proofs, ordering, delivery and support. If something's wrong, you call us, and we fix it.

  • The right press for the job

    A short digital run and a long flexo run belong on different equipment. We place each job with the partner in our network that suits it, instead of forcing it onto whatever we happen to own.

  • We know what the label has to do

    Our print partners know presses. We know coolers, freezers, scale printers and wrap tables, and we spec your label for them.

Where we work

Our roots are in the Midwest, in the state meat processor associations and their conventions. That's where most of our customers first met us. See the associations we belong to.

We ship nationwide, including Alaska.

What we hold ourselves to

  • Straight answers

    If a label won't hold in your freezer or a job costs more than it should, we say so before you order.

  • Labels that do their job

    A label that falls off or won't scan is worthless. We check the details that decide whether it works.

  • We stick with you

    The relationship doesn't end at delivery. Reorders, support calls and the next new product all come back to the same people.

Tell us what you need to label.

Send the size, quantity and what it sticks to. We'll come back with a price, or with questions if something won't work.

Or call 800.482.7225 and talk it through.
