The Business Card With Real Weight: Ultra Thick Kraft
Where a normal card bends between your fingers, this one holds its shape like a chip of wood. The stock runs from a hefty 32pt up to a coaster-thick 80pt, and the natural brown of unbleached recycled kraft plus a painted edge in a color you choose hands someone a card that feels made, not mass-produced, ideal for a roaster, a maker, or a barber. Sets of 50 start at $46.72 and rate 4.9 out of 5 across 99 reviews.
Kraft is one of our tactile, character stocks inside the wider business cards printing range, the warm, heavy cousin of a slick coated card. If you love the recycled brown look but want a lighter, everyday weight, the standard Kraft Business Cards run the same eco stock at a lower starting price. This page is the heavyweight version, built for when you want the card to feel like a keepsake the second it leaves your hand.
A set of 50 starts at $46.72 on 32pt kraft, and the cost per card keeps dropping as you step up toward 10,000. A roaster tucking one into every bag of beans or a barber handing one to each chair goes through a box faster than a single owner does. Tap a tier below to see the set total and what each jump saves.
What Makes Ultra Thick Kraft Cards Different
Two things: the weight and the surface. You choose from 4 thicknesses, 32pt, 48pt, 64pt and 80pt, and even the entry 32pt sits heavier than the card most people hand out. Step up to 80pt and the card reads almost like a thin coaster, with a cut edge thick enough to become its own design feature. The stock itself is unbleached kraft made from 100% post-consumer recycled fiber, so it carries a warm brown tone and a slightly toothy hand that ink sinks into instead of sitting on. It is the opposite of disposable, and people tend to keep it.
How Do You Print Color on Brown Kraft
This is where kraft trips people up, and where this card solves it. Brown stock swallows normal ink, so you get 6 ink options built for it. Print solid black for a clean classic look, switch to bright white ink so a light logo actually shows on the dark surface, or run full CMYK over a white underbase (the 5/5 setup) so photos and brand colors read true instead of going muddy. Each of those prints on the front only or across both sides. The specs panel below lists each ink option with the 4 kraft weights and the edge colors.
Here are a couple of easy ways to make an ultra thick kraft card pull its weight.
Design for the brown, do not fight it
Ink behaves differently on kraft, so lean into it. A bold one-color mark, white ink lettering, and plenty of open brown space look incredible and read instantly. Save full CMYK for the moments that need a real photo or a brand color, and let the natural stock carry the rest. Restraint is what makes this card look expensive.
Treat the edge as part of the design
The thick cut edge is a canvas most cards do not have. You can paint it in any of 22 colors, from Metallic Gold, Silver and Copper to Fluorescent Pink, Royal Blue, Hunter Green or plain Black, so a bright line runs all the way around the card. Match it to your logo or pick a loud contrast against the brown. If a painted rim is the whole reason you are here, the Edge Painted Business Cards open the same treatment up to more base stocks.
Design it without a designer
You do not need a design background to lay one of these out. Start from a professionally built layout in our business card design templates, then change the colors, copy and contact details in the online editor in minutes.

What Size Are Ultra Thick Kraft Business Cards
You get 3 sizes, each for a slightly different feel. The 2" x 3.5" is the classic wallet and cardholder fit that slips into any holder. The 2" x 2" square breaks the rectangle and stands out the moment it lands on a desk. The 1.75" x 3.5" slim card is leaner and modern, and it shows off the thickness from the side even more. All three print on any of the 4 kraft weights, so you can pair a square shape with the chunky 80pt stock if you want maximum presence.
How Many Should You Order
Kraft buyers often order 100 or more, since 100 cards cost $87.14 against $46.72 for 50, and 500 run $208.40. The per-card price keeps falling toward 10,000. Count the customers who get a card with each order or visit, and drag the slider below to see the total and the per-card cost at that number.
Are Ultra Thick Kraft Cards Eco-Friendly
Yes, and it is not a marketing footnote. The kraft stock is made from 100% post-consumer recycled fiber, we print with low-VOC soy inks, and our paper is backed by responsible-forestry certification (FSC #C013635) under the Forest Stewardship Council standards. A brown, unbleached card also skips the heavy coatings and optical brighteners a glossy white sheet needs. So a kraft card looks honest because it mostly is. If you want the same recycled story on your mailers, the Ultra Thick Kraft Postcards run on the same heavyweight kraft.
How Do They Compare to Other Cards
Ultra thick kraft is the warm, recycled, heavyweight pick, but it is not your only one. If you want the same chunky stock without the brown kraft look, the Ultra Thick Business Cards give you a thick white-core card, and the Ultra Thick Linen Business Cards trade the kraft tooth for a woven linen texture at the same heavy weight. The chart below lines them up by starting price so the trade-off is in plain numbers.

Pairs Well With Ultra Thick Kraft Business Cards
Fat Business Cards on Recycled Kraft
A fat business card is any card thick enough that the edge becomes part of the design, and this is the recycled kraft version of it. The 4 weights run 32pt, 48pt, 64pt and 80pt, all cut from 100% post-consumer recycled fiber, and even the 32pt sits heavier than the card most people carry. At 80pt the card reads like a thin coaster, and the cut edge is wide enough to take one of the 22 edge paint colors as a solid stripe around the whole card. Fat cards are handed out slowly and kept, so order the 2" x 3.5" for a wallet, the 2" x 2" square when the card sits on a desk, or the 1.75" x 3.5" slim when you want the thickness to show from the side. If you want the same weight on a white stock rather than brown, the Ultra Thick Business Cards are the sibling.
Ultra Thick Kraft Pricing Guide
Five choices set the price of a kraft card, and the quantity moves it most. A set of 50 starts at $46.72, and the per card cost keeps falling as the run climbs toward 10,000. Thickness is next, with 32pt as the entry weight and 48pt, 64pt and 80pt each priced as you pick them. Ink comes third: solid black, bright white, or full CMYK over a white underbase, on the front only or on both sides, each shown live. Edge paint in any of the 22 colors is an added finish, and the 1 business day rush sits above the 6 business day standard. Set each option in the configurator and the total updates before you commit, and a free online proof shows how the white ink and the painted edge land on your art before anything prints.
Ultra Thick Kraft Business Cards: Frequently Asked Questions
How much do ultra thick kraft business cards cost?
They start at $46.72 for a set of 50, and the per-card price keeps dropping as you order up toward 10,000. The 32pt stock is the entry price. Stepping to 48pt, 64pt or 80pt, adding a painted edge, or printing both sides moves the total, and every choice updates the price live.
How thick is the kraft stock?
You pick from 4 weights: 32pt, 48pt, 64pt and 80pt, all 100% post-consumer recycled kraft. Even the entry 32pt sits heavier than the card most people hand out, and the 80pt reads almost like a thin coaster, with a cut edge thick enough to paint.
Can you print color and white ink on brown kraft?
Yes. There are 6 ink options: solid black, bright white, or full CMYK printed over a white underbase (the 5/5 setup), on the front only or both sides. White ink is the trick that makes a light logo show up on the dark brown stock, and the white underbase keeps full-color art from going muddy.
What edge paint colors are available?
22 colors, from Metallic Gold, Silver and Copper to Fluorescent Pink, Royal Blue, Hunter Green and plain Black. The paint is brushed into the thick cut edge so a bright line runs all the way around the card. Choose No Thank You to leave the natural kraft edge bare.
Are ultra thick kraft business cards eco-friendly?
Yes. The stock is made from 100% post-consumer recycled fiber, printed with low-VOC soy inks, and backed by Forest Stewardship Council certification (FSC #C013635). The unbleached brown card also skips the heavy coatings and optical brighteners a glossy white sheet needs.
What sizes do they come in and how fast can I get them?
3 sizes: the standard 2" x 3.5" wallet fit, a 2" x 2" square, and a 1.75" x 3.5" slim card, each printable on any of the 4 kraft weights. Standard turnaround is 6 business days, with rush tiers down to a 1 business day rush, plus a free online proof before anything prints.
What is a fat business card?
A fat business card is a card printed on stock thick enough to feel like a small board rather than a sheet, usually 32pt and up.

Can I get a square fat business card?
Yes. The 2" x 2" square is one of the 3 sizes on this product, alongside the 2" x 3.5" standard and the 1.75" x 3.5" slim, and it prints on any of the 4 kraft weights up to 80pt. Pair the square with the thickest stock and an edge paint color and the card stands out the moment it lands on a desk.
