What is Giclee (Zhé-KLAY) Printing?
Giclee Printing uses high resolution printers and pigments to produce prints with exceptional attention to detail and color accuracy. Details like subtle color changes and, gradients can be beautifully captured with Giclee printing. This method uses 8 to 12 pigment color channels to process more color information than traditional printing (3 to 4 color channels) allowing for richer color results
Specialized inks for superior color accuracy, longevity and fade resistance
Archival papers These prints are typically printed on high quality acid free papers for even more color vibrancy and overall quality
Versatility High quality color matched prints can still be printed on a variety of mediums including matte or glossy paper, poster, canvas, metal, wood and more.
Environmental Impact Giclee printing often uses water based color pigment which is less harmful than solvent based inks used in traditional printing
Quality and Durability Giclee printing offers a superior color reproduction process, resulting in vibrant, accurate, and long-lasting prints with a wider range of colors than traditional printing methods. The quality and integrity of these prints can last decades up to a lifetime
