Who We Are
We are a dynamic and modern company that offers a wide range of printing and visual communication services as we produce all kinds of graphic arts works, using offset and digital printing.
The investments we made in technological and procedural innovation, allow us to produce a great variety of products and services with same day delivery, thus responding to the requests and demands of our customers.
Somos a única empresa nos Açores a produzir embalagens completamente automáticas e embalagens de pastelaria, com uma capacidade de produção diária de 400.000 unidades, e somos também os únicos na região com um sistema de estampagem a ouro, prata ou qualquer outra cor para um acabamento de requinte porque sabemos que a diferença está no detalhe.
However, we like to think that what we really have to offer is true value, which we deliver by meeting our deadlines and by assuring an excellent customer service and quality standarts that we have been promising and offering since 1976.
That is why, far more than a printing company, we prefer to see ourselves as the partner who values and leverages the image of all those who place their trust in us.

Our History
Fundada a 6 de Abril de 1976 por um grupo de personalidades ligadas a vários setores da vida Açoriana, a Empresa Gráfica Açoreana (EGA) foi pioneira na utilização do sistema de impressão offset nos Açores, pois, na altura, a arte da tipografia era a que vigorava no mercado regional.
It is safe to say that the growth and progressive modernization of the Azorean industrial scenario was, undoubtedly, a factor that favored the appearance of EGA, since the market was, by then, particularly receptive to the true qualitative leap that the company brought to the printing area.
Nevertheless, EGA´s beginnings were marked by some technical difficulties, essentially related to the knowledge of the offset art that was, for the first time, being introduced in the region.
These difficulties lead to the admission of Valentino Pacheco Henrique to head the assembly sector (prepress). Shortly after he took over the company, and, with the support of his wife, Maria Paula Guimarães de Sá Pacheco Henrique, created a group of companies within the paper industry. The EGA Group.
Since 2003, EGA has witnessed a process of consistent growth motivated by the entry of “new blood” in the company, especially the sons Manuel Henrique, Nuno Henrique and Andrea Henrique who, with the invaluable support of all the company's employees, together have made of EGA a true reference in the azorean graphic arts market.
In the last years, Manuel Henrique, current administrator of EGA, introduced new methods and renewed the company's technological park with the acquisition of advanced machinery that allowed to substantially leverage the quality standards and lead time that all customers desire, thus consolidating EGA's position of reference in the azorean market.
