1st May 1953. Foundation day of Typrint. It was a dream came true for Mr. Vasantrao B. Sawant, a runaway kid from Ratnagiri at the age of 14 to Mumbai. Type-Print. The name itself explains the nature. That time people use to do hand composing. And printing on Tradle Machines. Typrint was honored as KING OF TYPESETTERS by Commercial Artists Guild. Typrint was catering to all Advertising Agencies in India.

With the advent of computers we opted for semi-automatic typesetting machine Berthold CPS 1000 in 1980. The industry also saw collapse of printing presses, type foundries in the wake of 40 day long strike in Mumbai. November 1986 welcomed second generation Mr. Ganesh V. Sawant and new CRT technology from Linotype.

November 1989 was a black day for Typrint. Founder of a legendary Typesetting Studio passed away. Digitalisation was gripping the industry day by day to declare conventional typesetting outdated. To keep pace with the development in 1996 we ventured with Image setters, PCs, Macs and Developing processors. Then there was no looking back. 2002 we bagged prestigious WPP group for serving their Mumbai Companies.

And now we are catering in all continents worldwide with capturing all the aspects of the word DIGITAL. At your service for almost seven decades.
