Product Description for Triple Layered Business Cards | Coloured Core Cards

Triple layered business cards are built from three layers, with a coloured core sandwiched between white uncoated or brown Kraft outer card. The construction creates an ultra-thick, rigid card with the selected core colour visible around the finished edge.

A choice of core colours is available, along with rectangle and square formats. Suitable specifications can be laminated in matt, gloss or soft touch, while Kraft options provide a natural surface that can be written on.

These cards are designed for brands that want the physical thickness of the card to be part of the impression, making them particularly effective for luxury, design-led and premium professional applications. Keep artwork clean and allow the coloured edge to contribute to the overall visual identity rather than treating it as an incidental finishing detail.

  • Once you have placed your order you can upload your print-ready artwork. Please supply a CMYK PDF with the following:
  • Include 3mm bleed on all sides
  • Fonts outlined or embedded
  • 3mm minimum safe zone/margin on all edges (5mm for an artwork border with even finish)
  • 300dpi resolution
  • You can download the templates by clicking “Artwork Templates”.
  • If you need some extra help, we have created both Illustrator and Photoshop files that you can use to create a print-ready design file for us. Download them, set them up and save them for your next order.

Technical specifications – triple layered business cards

Finished formats: Standard 85 × 55mm rectangle and selected 55 × 55mm square options.

Construction: Three-layer card with a coloured core sandwiched between two outer sheets, creating an ultra-thick edge profile. Outer faces may be white uncoated or brown Kraft depending on the chosen option. The visible centre layer provides the coloured edge effect.

Core colours: Multiple core colours are available; the current selector should be used for the exact range. Printed CMYK cannot exactly reproduce the physical core colour, so any on-page colour matching should be treated as approximate.

Printing: Full-colour CMYK, single- or double-sided. Selected cards can be finished with matt, gloss or soft-touch lamination; lamination is recommended on some constructions to protect heavy ink coverage.

Artwork: Supply a 300dpi CMYK PDF with 3mm bleed and fonts outlined or embedded. Keep text inside the safe area.

Edge design: The coloured core is visible only at the cut edge; it is not a printed border. Avoid artwork that relies on perfect alignment between a printed edge colour and the physical core.

Thickness note: Multilayer cards are considerably more rigid than standard business cards. They may not be suitable for every card holder, mechanical feeder or finishing process.
