Less width, more wow

Bigger isn’t always better. When it comes to standing out, particularly at trade shows, conferences and events, having slim business cards on hand is a savvy move. Though they’re just a fraction narrower than standard cards, the difference is just enough to feel unique in the hand — and to stand out among more traditionally sized cards.

Subtle size, smart choice

At 40 x 85 mm, slim business cards are slightly narrower than standard ones — enough to feel distinctive without compromising functionality (they’ll still fit in wallets and cardholders). Choose from 9 paper stocks, like smooth matte, bamboo or textured cotton, all with vivid full-colour printing. Each option has its own weight and finish, so you can match the paper to your brand’s style.

Frequently asked questions

For most people, choosing a card shape is a matter of personal preference. That said, there are a few things you can consider, such as picking a card size that matches your business personality. Standard cards (85 x 55 mm) are traditional and the most familiar and they complement timeless, classic card designs perfectly. Square cards (65 x 65 mm) are fresh and bold, especially popular among creative professionals interested in conveying an innovative, edgy style. Slim cards (85 x 40 mm) are sleeker, the middle ground between classic and contemporary – while this shape adds a unique touch of visual interest, it still fits in standard business card holders.

Yes. Our recycled matte and textured uncoated cards are made from 100% post-consumer recycled paper.

No. Different paper stocks absorb ink differently and this may affect how your design looks when it’s printed. We recommend you consider the following when selecting your paper: Is your design predominantly dark or light? Does it feature all-over colour or simple lines and text? Then pick the paper that best suits your design and your general style.

Yes.

No, not at this time.
