What paper are my recycled business cards printed on?

We print our recycled business cards on 100% recycled 350gsm uncoated silk. This is a thick, card-like paper, which shows off your professional side – ideal for networking. Uncoated means no laminate finish. Feel free to write on these cards without smudging!

What is the smallest size font I should use on these cards?

We recommend using a font size no smaller than 7pt. This will ensure your details are legible.

How are they printed?

We have a dedicated business card room in our production facility where all cards are printed on our Fujifilm Jetpress.

When will my business cards be delivered?

Business card orders approved by 6:30pm will be dispatched for delivery the next working day. Delivery takes a further working day. For example, if you approved your order by 6:30pm on a Monday, we’d dispatch your order on Tuesday and it’d be delivered on Wednesday.

How do I upload my business card design?

When you add your business cards to your basket, you’ll be prompted to upload your artwork. Or, if you want to continue shopping, you can upload your artwork in your basket at a later time.
