History
Taylor Communications was founded as Standard Register Co. in Dayton, Ohio in 1912 by brothers John and William Sherman and Dayton inventor Theodore Shirmer to sell the pinfeed autographic register, a device invented by Shirmer. The device enabled multiple copies of printed forms to be fed through the machine using a hand-cranked wooden cylinder. Over the next century, Standard Register rose to prominence as one of the largest printed communications companies in the United States.
On June 17, 2015, it was announced that Taylor Corporation would be acquiring the assets of the company for a reported $307 million. Several months after the transaction was complete, Standard Register re-branded as Taylor Corporation's new go-to-market subsidiary, Taylor Communications.
Less than one year following the acquisition of Standard Register, Taylor Communications announced its intentions to purchase Staples Print Solutions, the commercial print division of Staples Inc. The acquisition added 10 commercial print facilities to the company's manufacturing footprint. As of 2016, Taylor Communications' parent company, Taylor Corporation, is considered one of the top 3 largest graphic communications companies in North America, with competitors RR Donnelley and Quad/Graphics being the other two.
