What does GSM mean?
GSM stands for Grams per Square Metre and refers to the thickness of the material. The higher the GSM, the heavier and thicker the paper. We offer Business Cards from 350gsm to 450gsm which is our heaviest standard business card, measuring approximately half a 0.5mm thick. But if you're after an even thicker business card, you should check out our Luxurious Triplex Business Cards.

What is the standard UK Business Card size?

In the UK, the majority of Business Cards measure 85 x 55mm, which is roughly the same size as a credit card. It's a classic size that's widely recognised, appreciated and fits in a purse/wallet.

Will my shiny laminated Business Cards look cheap?

Our Gloss Laminated cards are incredibly popular because they look fantastic. They exude a high-quality shine that elevates your brand image and leaves a lasting impression on anyone who receives them.

Are there any alternatives to 350gsm and 450gsm?

Definitely! At SM1 Print Studio, we understand that customisation is key. That's why we offer a range of paper weights for our premium Business Cards, allowing you to find the perfect fit for your needs. And if you're looking for something truly extraordinary, our triplex Business Cards are exceptionally thick and luxurious.

Why would I need gloss lamination?

Gloss lamination is not only stylish but also practical. By adding a protective layer to your cards, lamination makes them more durable. So, even if your cards experience some wear and tear, they will continue to look fresh and professional.

Can I have round corners on my Business Cards?

Absolutely! We believe in giving you the freedom to create unique and eye-catching business cards. You can choose an overall round corner option from our finishing types, or if you're feeling extra creative, you can select individual corners for a truly distinctive look.

Can laminated Business Cards be recycled?

Unfortunately, laminated paper cannot be easily recycled due to the lamination process. The paper and lamination cannot be separated effectively. However, we are always exploring eco-friendly alternatives and encourage responsible printing practices to minimise environmental impact.
