This year is the 13th year thatArtPrint makes your OEM skateboards. Nowadays
you can provide a wide range of boards , wheels,textile and also shoes.
Are you planning for some other new products in the near future
Well , we always keep an eye wide open to what's going on... Always trying to
do something new, something different to other compagnies and keep trying
to be better too ! Our brand new innovation is to offer skate shoes customized
to skate shops and labels and we are the only skate company that does this.
Right now we are starting to propose new board construction in epoxy glue
which is much stronger and better longevity. Our new boards also have a top
engraving with the size and serial number on it. We keep being creatives for
sure!
Can you describe the process that goes into making a board?
The process to make boards is not so simple and quite long and complicated
actually. From the start we need to have a design at the right printing size
and in good quality. We supply a template to put the artwork on it then we
separate each color, make a film and a screen for each one. It's printed color
per color on a polypropilene sheet then when it's dry we fix it on the board
thanks to a heat transfer roller.
