Question
How thick are laminated business cards?
Answer
Laminated card thickness is driven mostly by the base stock, since lamination itself only adds a thin protective film on top. Choose the stock weight for the feel you want, then the finish for protection.
| Base stock | Feel |
|---|---|
| 14pt | Standard weight |
| 16pt | Similar to a credit card |
| 32pt | About three times a standard card |
- Lamination adds a thin layer without much extra thickness.
- Heavier stock plus lamination gives the most substantial feel.
