Recycled Matte Business Cards Templates

Thank you for sharing your feedback with us. We are glad to hear that the print quality met your expectations, even if the finish on the recycled stock wasn't quite what you were looking for. Because recycled paper is uncoated and more absorbent, it can naturally result in a more "muted" or dull appearance for the ink compared to premium finishes. Upon checking your file, we can confirm that your uploaded design works very well with a varnished or glossy finish. These finishes allow the ink to sit on the surface, which provides the vibrancy and depth you experienced with the spot varnish version. While we appreciate your client's preference for recycled materials, we would recommend reconsidering a glossy or spot varnish finish for this specific design in the future to ensure the colors remain as bold as possible.
