Is suede printing more expensive than standard matte or glossy?

Suede is a premium finish, so it costs more per unit than standard matte or glossy lamination. The gap narrows as your quantity climbs, since the finish cost spreads across more pieces.

• Per-unit premium: higher than basic matte or gloss.
• Quantity effect: the difference shrinks at higher volumes.
• Value point: for orders of 250 cards or more, the per-card premium is small next to the impression it leaves.

If a memorable, high-touch feel matters for your brand, the modest upcharge usually earns its place.
