Online Auction Set for Assets of Sublimation Printer Avid Ink

A live online auction for the assets of Southern California garment and fabric printer Avid Ink will be held on Sept. 29.

Tiger Capital Group’s Remarketing Services Division and North East Printing Machinery Inc. will host the webcast auction for items including high-speed sheet-fed presses, dye sublimation heat presses, screen-printing equipment, and other equipment, supplies and office products.

Avid Ink specialized in sublimation printing since its start in 1997. The auction will be held at Avid’s Corona, Calif., headquarters beginning at 10:30 a.m. Online bidders must register at www.soldtiger.com and pre-auction bids are being accepted. The auction items can be previewed on Sept. 28, from 10 a.m. to 4 p.m. at Avid’s headquarters. The auction catalog can also be previewed at www.soldtiger.com.

“This sale represents a tremendous opportunity for textile and garment manufacturers, commercial printers and small businesses of all types,” said Jeff Tanenbaum, president of Tiger Remarketing Services, in a statement. “While the company’s primary focus was on heat transfer and silk screening for printed textiles, it also produced its own commercial print products and, therefore, had equipment suitable for printers, graphic artists and small businesses.”
