Why Choose Our Core Business Cards?

• Ultra-Thick 32-Point Build – Substantial weight and rigidity that convey quality and professionalism.

• Bold Black Core Edge – A striking, layered look visible from the side that enhances visual impact.

• High-Definition Full-Color Printing – Double-sided print for bold text, graphics, or imagery.

• Variety of Shapes & Sizes – Available in standard, square, vertical, and mini formats.

Design Best Practices

1. Account for Core Visibility – The black core is visible on the sides, so choose edge-to-edge designs for contrast or use edge decoration to highlight it.

2. Maintain Safe Margins – Keep branding and text at least 1/4" from the edge to avoid trim inconsistencies.

3. High-Resolution Images – 300 dpi or higher ensures prints appear sharp on heavy stock.

4. Minimal Ink Coverage – Heavy ink blocks may absorb differently; lighter designs maintain crispness and clarity.
