Mammoth Labels & Packaging started as Boehm Inc. in 1952 with a focus on office equipment, stationary, stamps and engraving. Over the years as technology changed, so did the company’s focus. It entered the label printing business with two flexo presses in the late 1990’s and continued with stamps, engraving and industrial marking & coding equipment. In 2005, it became an ESOP (Employee Stock Ownership Plan) in which the company is owned by the employees. Every employee is motivated in knowing that their hard work and personal success directly impacts the company’s success. Today, pressure sensitive labels make up approximately 70% of the company sales, and industrial marking & coding is 30%.
