Ultra Thick Metallic Pearl Postcards

What Are Ultra Thick Metallic Pearl Postcards

Ultra thick metallic pearl postcards are heavyweight cards printed full color on a single premium stock, a 26pt Metallic Pearl Ice sheet, in 14 sizes from a 2.5" x 2.5" square up to a 6" x 11". Businesses order them when a standard mailer would get lost: direct-mail promos, event invitations, save-the-dates, product announcements, and thank-you inserts for online orders. A thick, shimmering card often ends up pinned to a board instead of in the recycling. If you want a different heavyweight face, the Ultra Thick Kraft Postcards carry the same thickness on a natural kraft sheet.

What Size Should an Ultra Thick Metallic Pearl Postcard Be

Pick the size by how much you need to say. The 2.5" x 2.5" square default suits a compact promo or a save-the-date, small enough to feel like a token. Step up through the standard postcard sizes for a mailer with room for an offer and an image, or go all the way to 6" x 11" when you want the pearl finish to fill a mailbox. There are 14 sizes in all, and if none is exactly right you can set a custom size up to 6" x 11". The specs panel below lists all 14 sizes and the ink coverage options. For a roomier standard mailer, the Oversized Postcards go bigger on everyday stock.

If your artwork is ready, skip the editor and download a press-ready blank instead. The blank postcard template is built at the real trim size with the 1/8" bleed and safe margin already drawn in, so your design stays clear of the cut. Pick the size that matches your order below, place your art, and upload.

How Much Do Ultra Thick Metallic Pearl Postcards Cost

Ultra thick metallic pearl postcards start at $30.76 per set of 50, and the per-postcard price keeps dropping as the quantity climbs toward 5,000, so the run size sets the per-card price. A 300-card run is $123.02, 600 run $227.36, and 3,000 run $992.94, which pulls the per-card cost from about 62 cents down to roughly 32 cents. Count the addresses on your list or the orders you ship before the next restock, and drag the slider below to see the total and the per-postcard cost at that number.

What Makes the 26pt Metallic Pearl Ice Stock Special

Every card prints on this one stock. The 26pt weight gives the card real thickness in the hand. The Metallic Pearl Ice surface is the other half, a pearlescent coating that lends every color a lustrous, low-key metallic glow, so a white becomes a shimmer and a deep blue gains depth. You set your ink coverage to match the job: 4/0 prints full color on the front with a blank back, 4/1 adds black text on the back, and 4/4 runs full color on both sides. Pair full color on both sides with a larger size when the back has to carry an offer or a map.
