Tommy's Supplies History of Starbrite Colors!!!
TOMMY'S SUPPLIES STARBRITE KNOWLEDGE
Starbrite was created in the early 1990’s by my father Tommy Ringwalt SR., Mike Nicholson, and Carol Landry to give the artists a product that would change the tattoo ink industry by being the boldest, brightest, and most reliable colors on the market today. My father started Tommy’s Supplies in the mid 90's after separating from Papillon Tattoo Supplies due to personal business reasons. Tommy Ringwalt Sr partnered up with them again in 2001 to try and work things out by merging together due to our friends and family still working there. Then again partnership were not in agreement with eachother so we had separated again on good terms in 2004 for the last time and went full fledge with Tommy’s Supplies, just like Eternal did with Fusion. Tom Ringwalt Jr took over Tommy’s Supplies after this last seperation in 2004 and reconstructed the entire business by changing the way Starbrite was produced for the tattoo industry by sterilizing, testing, and meeting all regulations in every country to date so far.
We wanted to do more for our Starbrite Brand and being in a partnership was holding us back do to our different ways of creating the safest and best inks today. Since we have separated from Papillons we were able to have our Starbrite Colors tested, sterilized, new black twist caps, new vinyl labels, switched to clear bottles, and a lot of loyal customers that know why we made this decision to go on our own and represent our brand the way it should be and that is to make sure all professional tattoo artists and there clients feel safe when purchasing our inks, which we have succeeded to do since we have been in business. Now we have a better foundation to do what we must and keep up with the industries new laws and requirements on tattoo inks with no restrictions holding us back. All changes done to Starbrite colors are through us only so make sure when you are purchasing these colors you read the label for it will state ‘produced and bottled by Tommy’s Supplies’, if it does not then you are not purchasing the inks produced by us.
We have been a leading tattoo Supplier of high quality products for years and we’ll respect the tattoo industry at all cost. Our company did not work this hard for nothing, we really care about this industry and the direction it is heading. All Starbrite Colors are trademarked owned and registered by us ‘Tommy’s Supplies”.
