 A Brief Company History and Philosophy

   
         
     
 

TimeCal® International Corporation was incorporated in New Jersey in September 1983.  Since its inception, the company has specialized in providing design, development and sourcing services on various types of advertising specialty and promotional products.  TimeCal joined ASI, Sage and PPAI as a supplier member (asi  91330 / sage 50041 / ppai 110786 / upic TIMECAL) in 1991, and ever since it has been providing comprehensive lines of watches, clocks, and calculators to the promotional product industry.  

 
         
 

At TimeCal®, we strongly believe in good customer service, detailed order follow-throughs and on-time delivery of quality products.  We are amongst a very few suppliers who still offer paper proofs and eProof on your order at no extra charge, so as to eliminate uncertainty and potential mistakes regarding artwork and order details.  Due to this clear level of communication, problematic orders are practically non-existent at TimeCal.

We also provide free and high quality eSampleSM - the electronic version of "spec" sample and a powerful marketing tool.  Our eSample service is highly effective, with numerous successful order closings because of it.  We strongly believe in sharing the know-how with our team members - the distributors, to maximize marketing and ordering effectiveness and efficiency.  Guided by this company philosophy and with on-time shipping rate of close to 100%, our performance has received very high marks from distributors.  Thanks to their support, we are rated a perfect "5 Stars" and an "All A's Supplier" by ASI and Sage distributor members, and a "Top Supplier Finalist" in a recent PMDM distributor survey.  We are consistently rated among the top 5% of all promotional products suppliers.

 
         
 

TimeCal® is also a pioneer in developing full-color digital printing process in the promotional product area.  Using advanced software and hardware technologies, our trade-marked TIP ( TimeCal Imaging Process ) delivers sharp, continuous-tone, full-color images at a fraction of the cost compared to that of traditional offset printing, and with fast turn-around and low minimum.  It is far superior than any equivalent processes offered by our competitors, and is highly regarded in the industry.

 
         
 

In June 2006, we introduced the 1st edition of our eCatalogSM, an electronic version of our printed catalog.  Using cutting-edge digital publishing technology, our industry ground-breaking eCatalog offered the simplicity of book viewing, while retaining all the Web capability on product information gathering. Our eCatalog is designed to be extremely user-friendly.  One can get all the product information, including hi-res images, quickly and intuitively.  Our current eCatalog can be downloaded, viewed off-line, printed and circulated electronically with ease.  We constantly evaluate digital catalog technology so as to bring to our distributors the best available option in presenting product information.

 
         
 

We are in the midst of a major technological revolution, and all of us at TimeCal® are committed to maintaining our leadership position in developing advanced and cost effective imaging and production technologies to serve the promotional product industry.  For additional company information, please contact us at customerservice@timecal.com.
