Get high quality hemp postcards printed on 18pt thick uncoated card stock ready as fast as the next business day at Clubcard Vancouver. While hemp postcards are an obvious choice for those in the cannabis industry, this stock is a wonderfully sustainable option for any brand that values the environment and wants postcards that reflect its earth first values.
Really this is just a great tree free printing option for your 4" x 6", 5" x 7" or any size of postcard. This white hemp FSC certified card has a smooth uncoated card stock shows random strands of fibre that bolster the natural look of your designs.
18pt hemp postcards are printed on an Indigo press providing excellent quality and colour fidelity ideal for multiple card orders, and matching colour on reprints.
The minimum recommended text size is 6pt. With any small text, if grey use a Black Ink Only version; if Black, use 100% K.
Anything thinner than a hairline stroke (0.25") - even at 100% K may look choppy when printed due to Indigo print resolution.
There is a screen to the Indigo print which customers should be aware of if they're comparing to traditional offset printing.
Don't use rich black on Indigo printing. 100% K will be just fine.
Heavy ink coverage can be problematic. When the cards rub together, the ink can rub off. This can be an issue for corner rounding, so we generally advise clients with heavy coverage not to round corners.
Hemp cards are ideal for writing on because they are uncoated. This is a perfect option when you need to write on your cards. Ask us for samples to give it a try yourself!
CMYK Process colours in the grey range and de-saturated images can shift in colour throughout the print run and may cause the greys to appear either cooler or warmer. For a neutral grey, we recommend converting all grey values and de-saturated images to true greyscale consisting of K (black) only values.
Depending on the colour value, you may experience colour variation in solid fills of blue. For great blue results we recommend a 30% difference between your Cyan and Magenta levels to ensure a nice rich dark blue, rather than purple.
