Thermographic Raised Ink Business Cards

Classic Thermographic printing raises the image or type. This is done by sprinkling a powdered resin onto wet ink, then heat-fusing it to the board. When cooled, you're left with a glossy raised finish where ever the wet ink was.

• How printed : High quality thermography printing on litho presses.
• Size : standard business card : 85mm x 55mm.
• Printing options : Black; 1 Pantone colour; or 2 colours only.  Single sided printing only - see notes below.
• Note : we can only print light ink coverage thermographically - no big solids.
• Stock options : 400gsm - either smooth White invitation ivory board, or various *Conqueror boards - See below for options

• *Free Delivery : Included to one mainland UK address on all Thermographic printed business cards.

• Minimum point size we can thermograph print is 6pt. Please do not set your text smaller than 6pt as it may fill in. Thermographic print (raised ink / raised printing) will not show very fine details of typography or logotypes.
• We can only print raised Thermographic ink printing on ONE SIDE of business cards due to the heat-fusing process involved.
• Note: only light ink coverage - no big solid areas. Large areas of raised ink can get an "Orange Peel" look effect.

• Please be understanding that the Thermography printing process is not an exact science - it is a very old fashioned, and fairly manual printing process involving heat and melting glass resin powder onto the printed card. It is normal for there to be small imperfections in the finish; it is rarely a perfectly smooth finish, especially on larger, more solid print areas. Sometimes you will get slightly more of a raised image than others - sometimes a more glossy finish; sometimes a more matt finish - and sometimes less of the glass resin powder used in the Thermography process will adhere to the wet, tacky ink. We do everything we can to get the best possible finish for you, but you need to accept that there are some limitations in the process.
