The Foundational Years: 2013 and the Birth of Innovation It all started in 2013 in Loxahatchee, Palm Beach County, when Kevin, a visionary Emergency Department nurse, leveraged his high school screen printing skills to tackle an urgent challenge.

The brand quickly became popular in local gyms, setting the foundation for what would soon be a diverse and thriving enterprise.

Starting with HTV designs and evolving into full-fledged screen printing, ER LIFE exemplified how targeted branding and innovative print shop services could captivate an audience.
