GICLÉE INFORMATION AND BENEFITS


Put simply it is the latest development in inkjet technology that produces prints directly from a digital file in quantities and to such a superb quality that has not been possible or commercially viable by any other printing process up to now.

There are huge benefits to be gained by using Giclée compared to traditional lithographic printing.

The opportunity to test market a new image at a realistic price.

Greatly reduced initial costs compared to lithographic printing.

Print the edition as you receive the orders, helps your cash flow and eliminates storage problems.

There's no obligation to complete the edition, eliminating unsold wasted prints.

By adding Giclée reproductions to your portfolio you will create a brand new market for your prints with higher prices than traditional lithographic editions.
