Giclee, T-Shirts, Pillows etc
We occasionally receive calls such as these: "Can you make giclee t-shirts?" or "Do you offer giclee printing on pillows?". Well, the answer is simple: No, we cannot! First, we do not have the capability to print on fabric. Second, there is not such thing as giclee printing on pillow or t-shirts fabrics. Giclee printing has certain requirements: one of them is the use of stable, archival substrates and aqueous based pigmented inks. Although decor giclee printing is now being done with solvent pigmented inks, the fact remains that the use of archival papers and canvas is an essential part of the process. Although there is no defined standard for giclee printing, we adhere to our own:
Aqueous pigmented inks
Giclee printers (Not signage printers incapable of high definition printing)
Archival papers and canvas
Skilled color management
Specialization: giclee printing is all we do - no brochure, pillow or t-shirt printing here! After all, would you trust anyone but a specialist when you are spending hundreds or thousands of dollars?
