PRINTING OPTIONS

For selecting Microthin plywood for one’s business card, he will have a reason to do so.  It is the overall projection of the image of his self, or looked at it differently, the image he wants to project to the receiver of the business card or invitation card.  Prime among the reasons is the wood feel, texture of the wood selected and the uniqueness of the card.  But several considerations go into the decision as to the form the card should ultimately take. 

It is a combination of various factors like the selection of wood species, the art work and the printing options best suited for a particular art work.  Since printing on wood requires specialised skill, we give below a few printing options best suited for printing on Microthin plywood considering the characteristics of the wood surface.
 

SCREEN PRINTING

For normal business cards, invitation cards, book marks etc. screen printing is best suited.  Almost all species of Microthin plywood are suitable for screen printing. One colour printing, against the wood back-drop gives the best appearance. Printing in  two contrasting colours is also recommended, though up to four colours are technically  feasible.  Fonts should be selected with emphasis on the sharpness of letters.  Disadvantage is that shades are not possible.

OFFSET PRINTING

Offset printing is recommended for only a few selected species.  Printing is done by specialised technicians applying his skill depending on the characteristics of the wood species.  Selected species treated at the manufacturing stage for surface smoothening, flexibility, perfect edges to attain easy feeding into the printer is used for offset printing. Offset printing is resorted to for larger quantities thereby reducing the overall cost of the printed material.

LASER ETCHING

Laser etching can be used on most of the lighter coloured wood species.  Laser etched cards with their wood-burn effect gives a rugged and fire reminiscent primordial appearance. Though expensive, these look very elegant.

COMBO CARD PRINTING

For wide choices of number and combinations of colours, combo cards are best suited.  This is one side paper and other side real wood. Multicolour matter can be printed on the paper side of the card.  This way the user will have wide range of art work options at the same time retaining the wood feel and texture.  Combo cards are less expensive.
