The company specializes in high-end direct mail and its products include specialized surface treatments, hot and cold foils, embossing, and other unique printing technologies that have been proven to deliver results. "We are excited to build this relationship with Motion Envelope," said Bill Berkley, President and CEO of Tension. "John Searfoss and his son Johnnie have built an impressive business that will not only complement Tension's product portfolio and provide our customers with additional creative options, but is a great fit with Tension's culture and commitment to quality."
