Description
16pt stock is a step up in thickness from the standard 14pt card, and people notice it the moment they take it. The aqueous (AQ) coating adds a satin gloss that brightens color and protects against fingerprints.
It is an easy upgrade for brands that want a more substantial card without moving into laminated or specialty stocks.
Why choose Business Cards 16pt + AQ
- Thicker 16pt stock with a satin gloss AQ coating
