Question

What exactly is a sandwich business card?

Answer

A sandwich business card is a thick, triple-layered card. Two printed outer sheets are bonded around a colored inner core, leaving a visible stripe of color along every edge. The name comes from the bread-filling-bread construction.

  • Structure: printed front sheet, colored core, printed back sheet.
  • Signature look: a bright edge color that contrasts with the printed faces.
  • Feel: rigid and substantial, noticeably heavier than a standard card.

The colored core is usually chosen separately from your artwork, so you can pair a clean printed design with an edge color that matches your brand. The result stands out in a stack and signals that extra care went into the card.
