Personalized and Automated Mailing

The fulfillment of your job comes when it is dropped in the mail for delivery to the dozens or hundreds or thousands of your audience.

Print Design and Illustration

Your job calls for more than templates or clip art. Let us turn it into the design project you’re dreaming of.

Offset and Digital Printing

Print has a visceral and tangible nature that sets it apart from the digital world. Look under the hood at what goes into creating printed products.

Banners and Wide-Format

It can be hard to get people to notice your message these days. Say it with a big, eye-catching banner or sign.

Standing Together with You

As a designer, progressive, and former JP community member, it’s been my pleasure to work with Red Sun for the last decade. Their consistency in service and quality, coupled with their strong roots in solidarity of worker and human rights has kept Equal Exchange a satisfied customer for many years.

Our job is to help people make green energy choices, and Red Sun Press has always been there for us on print materials. They treat us like people, and take care with the work that I don’t find at big printing companies, for a comparable (if not better) price. We feel good that they are worker-owned and environmentally friendly, and are proud to call them friends.

Red Sun Press is an amazing partner in all of JVP Boston’s organizing — always ready to jump in to create beautiful graphics, posters, banners, and leaflets as we stand together in the fight for justice.  Their work is powerful, prompt and always perfect! We can’t imagine doing what we do without Red Sun.

Red Sun Press – Progressive Printers

Over the past thirty-five years, the faces have changed, but the mission remains the same. Red Sun Press has maintained its commitment to work with organizations and businesses that are building a better world. And we have continued to develop as a democratic workplace that integrates our values into our business.
Unlike most commercial printing companies, every worker at Red Sun Press is a member of the cooperative and shares equally in the profits. Women and men of all backgrounds have equal opportunities. Our “green” philosophy guides the decisions we make about paper and ink choices, recycling used materials, and health and safety practices. We have chosen to locate our business in an urban neighborhood that is close to public transportation and provides jobs within the local economy.
