Question

Does ultra thick stock work for double-sided printing?

Answer

Yes. Ultra thick stock is one of the best choices for double-sided printing because its density stops ink from bleeding through the sheet. You get a crisp, high-contrast result on both faces with none of the ghosting or show-through that thinner papers can suffer from.

  • No show-through: the extra caliper keeps front and back artwork fully separated, so a dark design on one side never bleeds into text on the other.
  • Rigid, premium feel: the card holds its shape in wallets and cardholders and reads as higher quality the moment someone picks it up.
  • Ideal split layouts: perfect for contact details on one side and a bold graphic, map, QR code, or offer on the other.
  • Clean edges: thicker sheets take cutting and rounded corners well, so the finished piece looks sharp from every angle.
