Our Kraft paper is manufactured by the legendary Kraft Paper Company. This particular stock was created back in 1955 and was the first of its kind. It’s created by mixing thick, light brown natural fibers and subtle visible flecks, which gives the paper an organic look and feel. And because this stock is created from 100% recycled material, it has a perfect rustic and eco-friendly appeal.
You’ve just spent hours, days, or maybe even months creating the perfect design. You send it off to get printed, only when it arrives, the cards do not look like you had intended. As a designer, I know just how upsetting that is.
Our C1S stands for “Coated 1 Side.” This means that the front side of the paper has a soft matte-like coating, while the back side remains uncoated. Its thickness is 18pt, which means it is a bit thicker than your standard business card paper and offers a nice contrast in texture from front to back.
You have questions… we have answers! Here are the top 10 questions we receive from our customers and answered to help your print journey.
Selecting the best print product is tough if you’re not familiar with paper stocks. One of our most common customer questions is: should I use coated or uncoated card stock for my print design? Should I select Glossy or Matte business cards? So many questions. Coated and uncoated stocks often look quite similar, but the difference is how the ink lies on the paper. Coated stocks include an extra layer created during manufacturing that makes the paper less porous.
