Nowadays, blue core paper has become the mainstream base material for mid-to-high-end cards. Many purchasers only focus on the price and ignore the key parameters, often resulting in problems such as transparency, easy bending, and color difference in printing in the later stage, which instead increases the loss cost.
When choosing blue core paper, the first standard is the non-transparency. High-quality blue core paper has a blue core layer in the middle, which can effectively prevent the patterns on the front and back from showing through, meeting the confidentiality requirements of high-end cards and board games. Secondly, look at the stiffness and toughness. Good paper has moderate stiffness, does not deform or fray easily after repeated shuffling, and has a longer service life.
The weight and coating are also crucial. 280g is the golden specification in terms of cost performance, with a moderate thickness that is suitable for processes such as offset printing, hot stamping, and lamination, and can reproduce colors delicately. The coating on the paper surface should be uniform to avoid color bleeding and fading during printing. Additionally, it is necessary to confirm the batch stability. Large factory supplies have uniform thickness and no spots, ensuring no color difference or specification deviation during mass production.
Many manufacturers blindly pursue weights above 300g, but in fact, 280g blue core paper is completely sufficient for regular cards, with lower costs and a smoother feel. Songhong Industry specializes in supplying 280g blue core poker card paper, which has high non-transparency and stiffness, and is suitable for various card printing processes. It has sufficient stock and stable delivery times, making it a reliable source supplier for poker card factories.
