All prints are Glicee prints.
Giclee printing is perfect for photographic reproductions that require maximum detail and longevity.
Fade free for up to 400 years.
WHY GLICEE PRINTS?
New research from the Willhelm Institute suggests prints from Ultrachrome Pro 12 inks can have a lifespan of up to 400 years +, depending on storage conditions.
Pigment-based inks also ensure that prints are less susceptible to water damage because the tiny ink particles are water-resistant.
Better longevity; a giclee print will outlast a lithographic print and other technologies by up to 10 times.
They are archival, collectable pieces.
PRINTING
Prints are professionally made by a small team, using advanced large-format printers print at up to 2400 dpi using a 12-colour pigment ink system, for smooth graduations, deep blacks, and an impressive colour range - with up to with 99% Pantone coverage.
Using state-of-the-art print software, prints are sharp, detailed, vibrant, and colour gamut is maximised.
