Question
What paper stock works best for plumbing business cards?
Answer
For plumbing cards that survive toolboxes and wet hands, go with 32pt ultra-thick stock finished with a UV or aqueous coating. It is roughly three times thicker than a standard card and shrugs off moisture on the job.
| Stock | Feel | Best for |
|---|---|---|
| 14pt / 16pt | Similar to a credit card, sturdy | Everyday professional cards, budget-friendly runs |
| 32pt ultra-thick | Roughly three times a standard card, rigid and hefty | Premium first impressions and high-wear pockets |
- 32pt ultra-thick with a protective coating resists both bending and water.
- If budget is a concern, 16pt with a gloss finish is a solid middle ground.
