Our recycled business cards are printed on 350gsm Recycled Uncoated card, in the standard 85mm x 55mm size or as 55mm x 55mm squares. You can print on one side or both, and order from 50 cards up to 5,000.
Yes. Uncoated card takes pen and pencil easily, which suits salons, clinics and tradespeople who write appointment times or prices on the back.
Kraft Business Cards have a brown, natural-board look. Recycled cards give you a recycled, uncoated stock in a white base colour. Classic Business Cards are our everyday option, with additional, optional lamination and a choice of other card stocks.
Each size is a separate order, so choose 85mm x 55mm or 55mm x 55mm when configuring the cards.
The minimum order is 50 cards, from £14.63 ex VAT with Saver delivery, and 1,000 cards cost £31.16. Delivery is free to mainland UK, though exceptions apply.
No, it gives them a different look. Uncoated card has a natural, slightly textured surface with no shine. Full colour prints well, but colours come out a little softer than on silk or gloss card because the ink sinks into the surface. Bold logos and clean type work best.
Stick to what’s true of the product: the cards are printed on recycled card. Broader claims about your environmental impact need your own evidence, as UK rules on green claims apply to your marketing as well as ours.
If you want gloss, lamination, very vivid photo colour or a heavier card, recycled uncoated isn’t the best fit. Look at Classic Business Cards or our premium range instead.
Yes. With white-label shipping, the cards go straight to your client with no mention of us, so they arrive as though they came from you.
Design online or, if you're creating your own artwork, upload a CMYK PDF at 300dpi with 3mm bleed on every side, fonts outlined or embedded, and important content at least 3mm inside the trim. Templates are available in EPS, PDF, and InDesign, plus Canva templates for both standard and square sizes. Every order gets a free artwork check.
Recycled Business Cards: An Environmentally Credible Option
Our recycled business cards are a small step in the direction of sustainability. Printed on our high-quality 350gsm recycled uncoated paper. These cards are available as a rectangle (85 x 55mm) or a square (55 x 55mm). Being uncoated, they're great for writing or stamping, so they could make particularly good appointment or loyalty cards. We love them for coffee loyalty cards, but that might just be because we seem to drink quite a lot of coffee!
Currently, we are in the process of transitioning to a mixture of FSC and PEFC PFSE paper stocks, which we anticipate finalising in early November 2024. We are working hard to introduce more environmentally credible products in our range, and we encourage you to consider using more of those products. If sustainability is important to you, you can read more about paper from Two Sides, the print and paper advocacy group that aims to dispel myths around greenwashing and promote paper as a truly sustainable product.
