Business cards in detail
Everything about your business cards in Paris
A business card is still the first thing people keep from you, long after the handshake. At Welye, it is designed to your specifications, printed in Paris and checked before press, so the result is exactly the one you had in mind.
Papers and materials
Weight makes all the difference: we work with matt or gloss coated stocks at 350 gsm, textured creative papers around 340 gsm and recycled sheets in their natural tone. For the most premium cards, we go up to 400 gsm, a thickness you notice the instant you pick it up. Each stock reacts differently to finishes, and it is this dialogue between material and touch that gives your card its personality.
Sizes and dimensions
The classic 85 × 55 mm format remains the reference, the one that slips into every wallet and card holder. We also print 90 × 50 mm, square 65 × 65 and mini 85 × 25 formats for a more distinctive object. And because a card should look like you, any custom dimension is possible, with die-cutting to shape or rounded corners whenever the project calls for it.
Finishes and options
This is where the card becomes a signature. 3D spot UV adds a glossy relief that catches the light, hot foil stamping dresses a logo in gold or silver, embossing sculpts the paper in relief and recess. Soft-touch, meanwhile, gives that peach-skin feel you would recognise with your eyes closed. Matt or gloss lamination, rounded corners: every option combines to compose a truly unique object.
Uses and custom work
Sales teams, executives, freelancers, luxury houses: the card supports trade shows, networking and client meetings, as well as correspondence and thank-you notes. Every project is different, and that is precisely what we enjoy. Tell us your use and your world, and we will advise the right paper and the right finishes. The quote and the proof are free, and so is the file check.
