What are Quality Business Cards?


 
Business
Business cards are usually prepared using card stock material. This material is usually coated for use as business cards. These cards can either be coated single side or double side. This coating gives a smooth looking glossy finish to the card. Business cards used to be monochrome in the past but these days color cards as well as cards having photos and other artworks are very common especially in creative industry people.

Business cards basically provide information about your business and employment position. They provide an introduction of you in a written format. We face situations many a times when we need to produce our introduction. A business card provides the usual and formal way of one’s introduction. The business cards also work as memory helpers as we look through the collection of business cards if we are looking to find a particular person related to some kind of work which we need to get done. A business card usually contains the name of the user. It also contains both official as well as home contact information of the business card holder. It may also include tax information or company designation and affiliation details for a particular person. Modern cards contain beautiful and visually very attractive logos and designs on them and provide an aesthetic appeal to the handler of the business card.

Business cards are usually prepared on card stock. The thickness and weight of the card stock are important factors in determining its quality for use of business card making. Business cards are usually printed on paper having at least the planer density of 350 g/m2 or 100 pound weight in the pound weight system. A thicker paper is generally better suited for a business card as it has a much longer service life. High quality color cards are made by offset printing presses. These presses use spot colors. There can be many number of colors used in this printing process. Digital printing and batch printing have made this otherwise costly process now much cheaper and within the reach of ordinary people. Raised print design is a very effective and good way to produce excellent business cards. New plastic powder process known as thermography has now decreased the cost of once an extensive process which required the custom making of engraved metallic plates. There are also spot varnishes that produce the similar raised printing effect.

Quality Business Cards these days are also coated commonly with a UV glossy coat. UV coats can also be done only on selected areas of the card which provides a lot of card designing potential to card printing companies. These cards can also now be printed by using digital copier machines which use toners which are fused into the paper surface of the card. For industrial purpose however, specialized digital presses are used instead of normal digital copiers. There are many companies such as HP and Konica who produce card printing equipment. The machines of today are very capable and can also print quite thick paper. These machines can also handle very glossy papers which generally produce offset in colors. Water based coatings are also used for longer durability of card printing although it is not as glossy as UV coatings. Cards are usually designed by giving them bleed lines. This helps make sure that there are no white edges where no color is present.
