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.
