Question

What paper stock do most highly-rated Business Cards use?

Answer

Thicker stocks tend to leave the strongest impression. A 16pt card feels close to a credit card, while a 32pt card is noticeably heavier in the hand and hard to bend.

  • Both 16pt and 32pt come in gloss, matte, and soft-touch finishes.
  • Soft-touch on a thick stock gives that velvety, memorable texture.
