Letterpress business card

Letterpress business card is a age tested technique that is comparable to a printing press. Using a plate made specific to each design each colour is pressed into the card to create a coloured imprint. This technique is ideal for block colours and creates a classic and clean finish. We recommend our ultra thick white or cream cardstock for use with our letterpress feature. The ultra thick paper has a higher density with is ideal for protecting the card from showing the impression through to the other side. For best results designs should avoid fine details with less than 2 mm between letter pressed areas. Letterpress cannot be used on gradient designs. As an alternative please consider ffset printing combined with debossing. Letterpress business card is a hand crafted and fragile production procedure carried but by the most enthusiastic fans of print. This luxury printing service develops just the most stylish of pieces, ideal for business who desire their business cards to reveal that their focus on information is ruthless.
