A New Dimension of Branding Painted Edges transform your business card from a two-dimensional document into a three-dimensional luxury object. By manually applying high-opacity, artisan pigments to the side profile of the card, we extend your brand’s color palette to every visible angle. This process is the premier choice for Heavyweight Stocks, ensuring your identity remains bold and consistent even when the card is stacked or viewed from the side.
Not Required: The card maintains its natural, pristine edge. This highlights the raw fiber and organic texture of our Premium Stock, perfect for minimalist or “pure” paper aesthetics.
Required (Custom Pigmented Edges): We utilize precision application techniques to coat the card’s edges with rich, vibrant pigments. Whether you choose a color that matches your design or a high-contrast neon, the result is a striking block of color that defines the card’s silhouette when stacked or held.
For the most dramatic visual impact, we recommend Painted Edges for cards with a thickness of 24PT (approximately 600 GSM) or higher. On ultra-thin materials, the visual surface area of the edge may be insufficient to showcase the full depth of the pigment. Our inks are specially formulated for maximum adhesion and rub-resistance, ensuring the color remains vibrant and does not transfer to the fingers or the card’s face during handling.
