What printing methods can be used on kraft paper?

Kraft paper is a popular choice for business cards due to its unique appearance and eco-friendliness. However, printing on kraft paper can be a bit tricky compared to regular paper. Here are some commonly asked questions that relate to printing methods on kraft paper:

 

Can you print full-colour designs on kraft paper?

Yes, it is possible to print full-colour designs on kraft paper, but the colours may appear less vibrant compared to printing on standard white paper. It is recommended to use darker colors to ensure visibility on kraft paper, unless you are printing with a white ink underpin.

 

Can you print white ink on kraft paper?

Yes, we can print white ink on kraft paper. We use a high-end digital 5 colour press that prints white plus CMYK. We can print stand alone white ink, white plus black or white and full colour designs. Check out some of our kraft business cards.

 

Can you print metallic or foil accents on kraft paper?

Yes, metallic or foil accents can be added to kraft paper using foil stamping. This process involves using a metallic or foil film to stamp the design onto the paper, creating a shiny and eye-catching effect.

 

Can you print on both sides of kraft paper?

Yes, kraft paper is thick and sturdy enough to allow printing on both sides, but it is important to use the right printing method. Digital printing is possible for both sides of the paper. Foil stamping can be done on both sides of the paper if it is thick enough to do so. Our studio has the ability to bond sheets of kraft together to create thick kraft paper which is suitable for foil stamping on both sides.

Overall, kraft paper business cards are durable and unique, and with the right printing method, they can create a lasting impression on your clients and customers.
