Silk Laminated Cards, Postcards and Hangtags on 16pt Stock

Most silk laminated products here print on 16 point silk laminated stock with the film on both sides. Silk Laminated Business Cards start at 250 for $74.53 in 4 business days, Silk Postcards and Silk Flyers at 250 for $74.53 in 7, and Silk Hangtags at 100 for $87.15. The film sits between gloss and flat matte, so colors look rich while glare drops.

This collection pulls together the silk laminated products 4OVER4.COM prints in house, from Silk Laminated Business Cards and Ultra Thick Silk Laminated Business Cards to Silk Postcards, Silk Flyers, Silk Hangtags, Silk Bookmarks, and Silk Laminated Presentation Folders. Every one carries the same soft film on both sides.

What Sets Silk Lamination Apart

Silk lamination is a thin film applied to both sides of your print after it comes off the press, turning a 16pt sheet into a smooth, sealed card that feels a little like fabric under a fingertip. On the Ultra Thick Silk Laminated Business Cards the same film covers a 32pt or 48pt board. Gloss lamination reflects light and can make small text harder to read. Uncoated matte stock leaves your ink open to fingerprints and scuffs. Silk sits between the two, diffusing light evenly while sealing the surface.

That protective layer does real work. A standard card looks worn by the end of a trade show. A silk laminated card still looks fresh a week later, because the film acts as armor for your ink and paper.

Who Reaches for Silk Laminated Products

A real estate agent orders 250 Silk Laminated Business Cards with spot UV on the front and a 1/4 inch rounded corner, and a trading card league prints 2.5 by 3.5 inch Silk Laminated Trading Cards from 250 for $94.74. Agents choose silk because the premium feel signals attention to detail without being flashy. Boutiques and product brands use Silk Hangtags to give a garment a luxury touch at the point of sale.

Photographers lean on the anti glare surface so their images aren't fighting reflections, on Silk Postcards, Silk Bookmarks, and leave behinds. Consultants and corporate teams reach for Silk Laminated Presentation Folders, where a folder that feels this good sets the tone before a prospect even opens it.

Designing for the Silk Finish

Silk lamination deepens color, so bold, saturated designs with rich blacks and deep blues look especially striking. Because it reduces glare, small text stays sharp, though it's smart to keep body copy at 7pt or above.

The soft silk base also makes a perfect canvas for spot UV. Add glossy, raised accents to a logo or a pattern and the contrast between soft and shiny catches the eye, which is exactly the effect on Silk Laminated Spot UV Hangtags. Ultra Thick Silk Laminated Business Cards take it further with foil stamping, edge painting, and rounded corners.

Silk Laminated Printing FAQ

What stocks and sizes can I choose across the silk laminated collection?

Most products print on 16pt silk laminated stock, while the Ultra Thick Silk Laminated Business Cards step up to premium 32pt and 48pt weights. Each product comes in multiple sizes, and the lamination is applied to both sides for a consistent feel throughout.

Can I add spot UV or foil to silk laminated products?

Yes. The soft silk base pairs beautifully with spot UV, and select products add raised spot UV, foil stamping, edge painting, and rounded corners. The Silk Laminated Spot UV Hangtags and Ultra Thick Silk Laminated Business Cards show off these combinations.

How fast can I get silk laminated printing?

Standard turnaround is 3 to 5 business days after proof approval, with rush and Same Day options on select items. With 99.8% on-time delivery and 82% of orders shipping early, there's a good chance yours arrives ahead of schedule.

How is silk lamination different from gloss or matte?

Silk sits between the two. You get color saturation close to gloss without the shine, plus a softer feel than standard matte. It also resists fingerprints and scuffs better than uncoated finishes.

Can I write on silk laminated prints?

Standard ballpoint pens won't take to the smooth, non-porous film. If you need a writable area, such as a mailing panel on Silk Postcards, you can request spot lamination that leaves that section uncoated.

Will you check my artwork, and can I see the finish first?

Every silk laminated order includes free file review, so anything that needs adjusting gets flagged before it goes to press. You can also order free samples to feel the finish before committing to a full run.
