Product Options

 

  • 14pt Uncoated Cover – You may be familiar with this type of stock from thick index cards, though the finish is much higher quality. This is a very versatile stock. The uncoated finish is good when you don’t want a slick and shiny look, while the firm 14 Pt. stock folds precisely.
  • 14pt Gloss Cover – You may be familiar with this type of stock from presentation folders. This thick and stiff stock is coated on both sides with a glossy finish.
  • 16pt C2S Gloss Cover – You may be familiar with this type of stock from heavy bookmarks or other products printed on a semi-rigid card stock. This is our thickest stock and comes with a gloss coating on both sides. Because of its thickness, it is not ideal for folding unless scored first.
  • 16pt C1S – This is our thickest stock and comes with a gloss coating on one side, which leave the uncoated side available for writing. Because of its thickness, it is not ideal for folding unless scored first.
