History

A concise historical narrative of NAICS Code 323111-14 covering global milestones and recent developments within the United States.

  • The history of Commercial Printing-Gravure (Manufacturing) dates back to the 19th century when the first gravure printing press was invented in Italy. The process of gravure printing involves engraving an image onto a cylinder, which is then used to transfer ink onto paper.
