Postcards

A Choice for every one 

Although there are many options to choose from when it comes to postcards finishes, it's easier than you think to make up your mind. Here is a brief description of the different postcard finishes we offer as well as the characteristics of each of them.

Each of our postcard finishes is part of one of the 3 following categories
- Postcards without lamination (the best seller)
- Postcards with lamination
- Postcards that can be written on it

Postcards without lamination
This is where you will find the standard finish and the best value for money and best choice for a mass distribution.

Choice of paper

• 14 pts C2S Stock : a glossy finish that fits all budgets and will bring out your photos and images; 14 pts thick, it’s the best choice for your budget.
• 14 pts C2S Dull finish: 14 pts thick, smooth, matte finish with less reflections and comes with a selective UV coating option that offers a beautiful contrast;
• 16 pts semi-gloss finish: a glossy finish that suits all looks and will bring out your photos and images; 16 pts thick, a bit more expensive but thicker than the other options.

Postcards with lamination
This is where you will find a high quality finish. All postcards in this section have a lamination that adds body and rigidity to your cards, as well as protection against water and moisture.

Choice of paper

• 16 pts C2S Stock with matte lamination: 16 pts thick postcards with a matte lamination on one side or on both 2 sides, it is the best look to make you stand out. You can also add options such as Silver Metallic Ink (PMS877) or selective ultra-gloss UV coating over the lamination to create a stunning contrast and incredible look.
• 16 pts C2S Stock with gloss lamination: 16 pts thick postcards with a gloss lamination on on one side or on both 2 sides.

Uncoater Writable Postcards
Here you will find the perfect option for your appointment cards, for coupons to fill, for contests, or to collect information. They are all made of a nice thick stock which allows you to write on them on at least one of the two sides with a pencil at the mine, a pen or stamp with a stamp on the map.

Choice of paper

• 1 sided coated Stock : one glossy finish on one side and one uncoated finish on the other side, this is the most common card for rendezvous or loyalty cards with a choice of 14 pts thick or 18 pts thick and an option such as high-gloss UV coating on the glossy side.
• Recycled 13pts Stock : Made in Canada from 100% recycled materials and 13 pts thick, it has a more coarse finish and a less pronounced whiteness, but it's the perfect ecological choice.
