All About Heavyweight Cardstock Paper 89-111lb (241-300 gsm)

This heavyweight cardstock paper category consists of paper ranging from 89-111lb (241-300 gsm) cover. This cardstock is very thick, rigid, able to stand on its own, and can't easily be folded without pre-scoring, or pre-creasing. Heavyweight cardstock is great for marking invitations, business cards, greeting cards, and packaging.

Can I print on heavy cardstock with my home printer?

This is a common question, the answer to which varies with the exact thickness of the paper, the finish/texture of the paper, and the type of printer you are using. Many home laser and inkjet printers can handle paper up to 100lb cover with a smooth, matte (uncoated) finish. However, we always recommend ordering a sample to test prior to purchase.

Why does heavyweight cardstock have to be scored before folding?

Scoring, or pre-creasing cardstock before folding it makes it easier to fold and helps create a neater, cleaner, more professional fold. As an example, try folding a piece of thin cardboard (such as a cereal box) in half by hand. Notice how there is cracking along the fold? Now, take another piece of that box and use a straight edge (such as a ruler) and a scoring tool (such as a butter knife) to create a crease in the cardboard - then fold it. Note how much easier it was to fold the cardboard after scoring it, and how much better the fold looks. Heavyweight cardstock works the same way!
