Welcome!

You’re a creator who has a story to tell, a design problem to solve, a place to make beautiful.

About Tracer

Tracer was founded in White Plains, NY, offering lenticular printing services and lenticular products across the US, but has since expanded into Photo Gifts, Photo Wall Décor and Specialty Products for large retailers.

Enterprising clients value our ability to innovate and engineer new products, with a focus on increasing product offerings and expanding markets in their respective industries.

Our customers recognize and appreciate our ability to help them achieve their long and short term goals with creative solutions.

While our roots are in lenticular printing, we’ve diversified and grown into the retail photo space. The photo and décor products we’ve invented are sold in over 7,000 retail locations around the country and can be ordered from anywhere in the world. Tracer also maintains a globally recognized patent portfolio.

Our Clients

We’re proud of the long-term client relationships we’ve built and excited about bringing that experience to you.

 

Highlights and Awards

"Working with Kyle and the Tracer team has been a dream. They go above and beyond every single time, from personally dropping off our print to taking extra time with our file to make it really sing. We are so impressed with the final prints; the 3D is so realistic, it feels like you can actually reach out and touch the subject. We will definitely use Tracer again. Their precision and professionalism definitely surpasses the competition, and they are so reasonably priced. Can't recommend them enough."

- Stephanie Stender; DARK IGLOO

"We’ve done many high profile jobs over the years with Tracer and they are without doubt the gold standard in lenticular. It’s always a pleasure working with them and the end result is always outstanding!"

- Jason Kraning; OPTIKA SCENICWORKS, INC.

"First off, our sales team absolutely loves them. Additionally, any visitors we have had from the ZEISS leadership and marketing team that have visited us in Bentonville have stolen one because they like them so much as well.... I am getting phone calls today from Optical Mangers at Sam's Club saying how AWESOME our new patient demo Lenticular is. Overall, I would say we really nailed this and we are looking forward to seeing positive tracking on our sales data...."

- Patrice Leslie; ZIESS

"It was such a pleasure working with Kyle from Tracer Imaging. We wanted to create a lenticular printed ticket, something we had never done before, for one of our events. Kyle was helpful through the whole process and walked us through how to create the ticket. He provided several proofs for us to choose from and the final product turned out better than expected! Our company won a Gold IFEA Best Printed Material Award for the creative ticket design. Thanks to Kyle and Tracer Imaging who made it this such a fun and easy process!"
