Question
What paper weight works best for medical business cards?
Answer
Most medical professionals prefer a thicker stock, 16pt or above, because a card that feels sturdy in a patient's hand reads as more established and reassuring.
| 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 |
- A 16pt card is roughly the thickness of a credit card, professional for everyday use.
- For an even more premium feel, 32pt stock makes a strong impression during specialist referrals.
