Our FOCUS:
imaging and more
Just three words but they encompass all that we do. Everything about imaging, be it expert retouching or reproducing with pin-point accuracy and color acuity—in both large and small scale.
We’re more than a graphics resource. From our founding in 1949, and since our inception in the Bay Area in 1984, Andresen has stayed at the forefront of impactful brand graphics with a blend of ideation, workflow efficiency, and standout imaging technology. We call it brand imagineering—a collaborative, customized approach, to creating innovative visuals and solutions, to practically every communication and graphics application challenge.
Through constant innovation, Andresen has become the most relied upon graphic imaging resource in the Bay Area, trusted by many Fortune 500® and emerging companies to deliver stunning large format environmental graphics, digital and offset printing, and unique one-off customized brand expressions with impeccable execution and the best in project management and workflow oversight.

Select Solutions
Over the years, Andresen has become a trusted graphics resource, specializing in large-format environmental graphics, digital printing, offset printing, and unique projects for major brands. We are always focused on finding a customized solution that fits your brand and meets your creative challenges. This is what makes us about imaging and more.
technology
We’ve expanded our technical range in large-format work with the installation of a cutting-edge Vutek H3. The H3 printer is capable of imaging on 10 foot wide rigid board or roll material. The H3’s UV ink means color cures immediately, which allows for printing on difficult surfaces. Plus, use of a unique white ink on the H3 creates striking effects on clear or translucent materials, even plexi or glass.
IMAGING
We apply our versatile imaging expertise to all of our work, whether it is large-format digital printing, customized marketing solutions, or acting as a creative support studio for top ad agencies. Andresen’s team of highly talented retouchers, CGI artists, and print media specialists provide unparalleled creative collaboration and brand imagineering for some of the world’s largest companies and advertising campaigns.
SUBSTRATES
The substrate possibilities are almost endless at Andresen. We can print on UltraBoard™, foam board, flute cardboard, acrylic, wood ceramic tiles, and even bricks up to 2” thick. If it can lay flat, chances are we can print on it. So let your imagination soar! As for color, the Vutek incorporates the Pantone® EFI loop system, great for color matching. Test us! You’ll be amazed at our color-matching ability and attention to detail, right down to the smallest 5pt type.
customization
There’s no unique request that we haven’t heard—and delivered on— before. Our imaging work ranges from signage to special production, kitting to key fob boxes, back-lit wall panels to cloth-bound books.
