The National Portrait gallery is home to the most extensive collection of portraits in the world and made the fabulous decision to use some of these on their new business cards, giving each individual card interesting visual impact.

These cards have been produced using a Duplex method, which involves layering two or more sheets of premium card together. This technique creates a luxurious thickness that exudes quality and durability. Unlike traditional business cards, which can feel flimsy and forgettable, duplexed cards have a substantial weight that instantly commands attention and leaves a lasting impression.
One of the most significant advantages of duplexed business cards is the endless customization options they offer. From choosing the colour and texture of each layer to incorporating foiling, embossing, or debossing techniques, the possibilities are limitless. This level of customization allows you to create a card that perfectly aligns with your brand identity and stands out from the competition.

In addition to their aesthetic and functional benefits, duplexed business cards can also be environmentally friendly. By choosing eco-friendly materials you can minimize your carbon footprint while still enjoying the luxury of duplexed cards.

These cards have been printed in CMYK on a 350gsm Smooth uncoated FSC® certified sheet before being stuck together. The FSC (The Forest Stewardship Council®) is an organisation working to promote the practice of responsible forestry across the world. They set standards for forest products and independently certify that these standards are being met. As well as being printed using vegetable based inks, the recycled nature of these cards gives an eco-friendly option without losing any quality

In today’s digital age, where most interactions occur online, the tactile experience of exchanging physical business cards has become increasingly rare and therefore more impactful. Duplexed business cards provide a tactile experience, making them more memorable than their digital counterparts. The luxurious texture and weight of a duplex card creates a memorable experience that reinforces the quality of your brand.
