Wizard Graphics' Philosophy
We at Wizard Graphics feel that everyone should have access to top quality printed materials at affordable prices. At Wizard Graphics, we believe that it is possible for business and ecology to
co-exist side by side. Our commitment to the environment comes second only to that of our customers.
Our Printing Process
Wizard Graphics prints every job using high quality offset lithography, on our state of the art German-Made Printing Presses. We exclusively use 20 micron stochastic screening in conjunction with thermal computer to plate imaging technology. It is our understanding that no finer quality printing is available anywhere, at any price.
Wizard Graphics' Environmental Practices
At Wizard Graphics, we are committed to conserving resources and reducing the impact of all of our printing processes on the environment. We are continually seeking out new materials and processes that will help us in this undertaking. Currently, we use twice as much paper containing recycled pulp, than that which comes from virgin sources. Our vegetable based inks contain nearly zero V.O.C.'s (volatile organic compounds), and are the most eco-friendly inks that we have ever encountered. We recycle nearly 100% of all waste that is produced by our manufacturing process, and office staff. In fact, the only garbage that we generate for landfill is the food waste from our lunch-room.
Customer Service
We are committed to offering our customers that highest level of customer support available anywhere. Our staff is available to answer your questions Monday through Friday 8:00 AM to 6:00 PM Pacific Time. If you call during these hours, you will always be able to speak with a knowledgeable member of our staff that should be able to help you with just about any question pertaining to your order. Toll Free U.S.A. and Canada (888) 703-3331
Fast Turnaround
With every order, you should receive a PDF proof of your artwork via email. During business hours, you should receive the proof the same day that you send us your artwork. Otherwise, it will be sent within 1 business day. After your artwork is approved, we will usually print and ship your job within 3-5 business days. (please allow a little more time for catalogs, presentation folders, and custom projects.)
