SOLID-COLOURED ESKA BOARD · APPROX. 1.75–2 MM · HOT FOIL
What makes ultra-thick coloured board business cards different?
Ultra-thick coloured board business cards use solid-coloured ESKA board, so the selected colour remains visible through the face and edge rather than sitting on a printed surface. Choose from ten reviewed board colours and pair one of them with a single hot-foil colour on one side or both sides.
WHY THIS PAPER
The edge carries the same colour as the face.
Because the board is coloured throughout, there is no white core to disguise and no laminate separating the hand from the material. The substantial profile makes the card feel closer to a carefully specified object than a conventional printed sheet.
The listed thickness is deliberately approximate. The precise caliper varies slightly with the selected board colour and current material batch.
BOARD COLOURS
Ten useful starting points.
Red, Pink, Orange, Taupe, Green, Blue, Azur, Yellow, White and Black are available in the online selection. Screen previews are references only: paper colour changes with lighting and displays, so final material availability is confirmed during artwork review.
FOIL & CONTRAST
Reflection creates the mark.
Choose one foil colour for one side or the same foil colour on both sides. Metallic foil usually creates the clearest contrast on deep board colours, while quieter pairings can work when the typography is generous and confident.
Contrast remains the customer's creative decision. If our production check indicates that text or fine detail may not reproduce clearly, we will pause the job and contact you before production.
ONLINE SCOPE
One foil colour, controlled coverage.
Different foil colours on opposing faces, multiple foils, unusually fine artwork or large/full-face foil coverage need an individual production review. Use the Bespoke Quote route for those specifications.
ARTWORK PREPARATION
Prepare foil as a separate vector layer.
Upload print-ready artwork now or send it after ordering. Production starts only after the files, material and foil combination have been checked and approved.
REAL PRODUCTION EVIDENCE
See coloured board used across a multi-name card system.
The Coverboard project used solid-coloured ultra-thick board and hot foil across 8,450 cards for 17 names. It shows how ultra-thick coloured board business cards can distinguish people through different board and foil pairings while preserving one coherent identity.
