Business Cards Printing in Singapore

Business card holders and cases are useful for storage, presentation, and protection. Availability depends on product offerings and category selection. These accessories help keep cards clean, organised, and presentable during meetings and events.

Special finishes such as spot UV, embossing, debossing, and foil accents are commonly applied to one side to maintain balance and prevent excessive thickness. In some cases, double-sided finishes are possible, depending on the paper stock and finishing method selected. It’s best to consider readability, cost, and durability when choosing double-sided special effects.

Information should be arranged in a clear hierarchy:

1. Name and role (most prominent)
2. Company name or logo
3. Primary contact details
4. Secondary information (address, QR code, social links)

Avoid overcrowding. White space improves readability and creates a more polished appearance.

Business cards can be organised in several practical ways:

• Card holders or desk organisers
• Wallet sleeves
• Digital contact management apps (after scanning details)

Keeping cards organised helps ensure important contacts are easy to find and well preserved.

Outdated business cards should be responsibly discarded or recycled where possible. Many businesses also repurpose old cards for:

• Internal notes
• Temporary labels
• Test prints

When information changes, it’s best to update your design and print a fresh batch to maintain a professional image.

The best choice depends on your brand image and how the card will be used:

• Matte finish offers a clean, professional look with minimal glare
• Gloss finish enhances colour vibrancy and visual impact
• Soft-touch lamination provides a smooth, premium feel
• Textured or specialty papers add character and distinction

For everyday professional use, a combination of 350gsm art card with matte or soft-touch finish is a popular choice.

Samples are useful if you want to feel the paper quality, check print colours, or compare finishes before committing to a larger order. Availability depends on the product type and configuration. Some customers also choose to place a small quantity order as a practical alternative to sampling.

Production time depends on paper type, finish, and order quantity. Standard business cards are typically produced within a few working days, while specialty finishes such as foil stamping or spot UV may require additional processing time.

Estimated turnaround is usually provided before checkout so you can plan accordingly.

Using the back of your business card is optional but often recommended. It can be used to:

• Add a tagline or brand message
• Display a QR code
• Include social media handles
• Present information in another language

Double-sided cards are especially useful when you want to keep the front clean and uncluttered.

A well-designed business card should clearly communicate essential information without clutter. Key elements typically include:

• Name and job title
• Company name and logo
• Contact details (phone, email, website)
• Optional address or QR code

The goal is clarity and readability, ensuring recipients can quickly understand who you are and how to contact you.

You can design your business card by uploading your own artwork or working with a ready-made template. A print-ready design should include:

• Correct dimensions
• Bleed area for edge trimming
• High-resolution images (300 DPI)
• Outlined or embedded fonts

If you’re unsure, following provided design guidelines or using a professionally prepared template helps ensure accurate printing and clean results.

Business card thickness is measured by paper weight (gsm).

• 250–300gsm is considered standard and suitable for everyday professional use.
• 350gsm is a popular premium option, offering a sturdier feel and better durability. For a more luxurious impression, specialty stocks or laminated finishes can increase perceived thickness and rigidity without excessive weight.

The most common business card size in Singapore is 90 × 54 mm, which fits easily into wallets, card holders, and standard filing systems. This size is widely accepted for professional and corporate use.

In addition to the standard size, custom options such as square cards, slim cards, and oversized formats are also available for brands that want a distinctive look while still maintaining practicality.
