Print premium custom cards on environmentally responsible 12pt uncoated card stock made from 100% recycled fibers. This versatile stock delivers a smooth, natural texture that enhances your design while providing excellent print performance for a wide range of applications, from business cards and hang tags to postcards, packaging inserts, and branded marketing materials.
These 12pt recycled hang tags are printed in full color with soy based inks on an offset press. The inks absorb into the uncoated stock, creating a true matte look and feel with consistent quality and precise detail across the order to create a polished finished product that helps elevate your brand.
*Please note that heavy or full ink coverage can leave a slight sheen on this stock.

Production timelines vary depending on the complexity of your project, selected finishing options, and current production volume. For time sensitive projects, we recommend contacting our team before placing your order to confirm scheduling.
Orders cannot be changed, expedited, or canceled once production has begun.
Embossed artwork creates a recessed impression on the opposite side of the card. Similarly, debossed elements may produce a subtle raised impression on the reverse side.
Please note that foil edge gilding is not available on products that include embossing.
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.
Coated cards aren't ideal for writing on. If this is a big deal, check out our uncoated card stock options.
CMYK Process colors in the grey range and de-saturated images can shift in color 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 color value, you may experience color 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.
