Our Philosophy
About Us
Our philosophy is rather simple, but powerful!
Cocks-Clark Graphics, Inc. will be an extension of your company!
Not just a place you outsource to, partner with or have
no connection, but an extension of your own company.
We'll provide you with superior customer service,
just as you would serve your own clients!
Cocks-Clark Graphics (CCG) was founded by William M. Cocks and Chas. A. Clark.
Through their collaboration, they gained entry into Denver's printing industry as
Cocks-Clark Engraving in 1906 and became distinguished as the largest supplier
of copper and brass engraved plates west of the Mississippi.
By 1929, the company outgrew its original location and built their current building at
2200 Arapahoe Street in lower downtown Denver, where we reside today!
The prepress services business continued to expand to include an international client base of Fortune 500 companies, as well as a growing Denver and regional based clientele.
In the early 1960's, the company helped pioneer one of the most innovative packaging methods of the time, the first two-piece aluminum can with the Adolph Coors Company.
In 1991 the company developed a separation technique for printing photo images
(wet on wet) on an aluminum can, countless images separated with this
technique followed including the 1994 Sprite NBA Player Collectible Series
and the 2003 X-Men Movie promotion, to mention only two.
In 1997 the company was instrumental in developing the first ever magazine
quality waterless can with Alcoa, it’s debut and full story written up in
September 1997 issues of Canmaker and CanTech magazines.
Today the innovations continue as we are the first trade-shop in North America
to offer computer-to-plate steel backed letterpress and narrow web cyrel
plates from our hybrid digital plate making system.
Over 100 years of success has matured into the present Cocks-Clark Graphics,
a company dedicated to the pursuit of new technology with proven experience,
ready to meet the quality, speed and growing needs of its customers.
