Finishes & Surface Details
White Version – Coated + Matt Lamination (Inside & Outside)
The white finish uses a 157 g/m² coated paper paired with matt lamination on both sides (interior and exterior). This combination delivers a soft-touch look, reduces glare in photography, and enhances scuff resistance. The matt surface is ideal for premium presentation, elegant gifting, and clean branding.
- Paper: 157 g/m² coated, laminated matte inside & outside
- Look/feel: smooth, low-gloss, premium
- Great for: wedding favors, corporate gifting, minimalist branding
Black Version – Black Dyed Kraft (Unlaminated, Inside & Outside)
The black finish features a 157 g/m² black dyed kraft paper, without lamination on the inside and outside. The natural matte character gives a modern, understated aesthetic with a tactile paper feel—perfect for high-contrast branding, metallic labels, or subtle debossed accents.
- Paper: 157 g/m² black dyed kraft, unlaminated, inside & outside
- Look/feel: deep matte black, paper-true texture
- Great for: luxury retail, tech cards, boutique loyalty programs
Note: If you apply any finishing or labels, always test adhesion and color transfer on a sample first.
Materials & Construction
At the core is 1200 g/m² rigid cardboard that maintains crisp edges and protects contents from bending, abrasion, and day-to-day handling. The satin ribbon closure is designed for repeat opening and closing while preserving a refined appearance. Inside, a laminated cardboard insert stabilizes card placement, improving unboxing and photography.
- Core board: 1200 g/m², rigid, shape-holding
- Outer/inner wrap: 157 g/m² (white coated + matt lamination) or 157 g/m² (black dyed kraft, unlaminated)
- Closure: satin ribbon bow/loop style for intuitive use
- Insert: laminated card tray to keep cards centered and flush
All figures are nominal; allow standard tolerances inherent to paper-based manufacturing.
Dimensions & Fit
The box measures W 7 × L 12 × H 1 cm. This format suits standard bank/ID/loyalty cards (approx. 85.6 × 53.98 mm) with room for protective sleeves or presentation cards. The shallow height keeps everything slim and gift-ready.
- External size: 7 × 12 × 1 cm (W × L × H)
- Ideal contents: 1–2 standard cards, gift card with carrier, RFID key card, flat voucher
- Photography: low-gloss white or deep black for controlled reflections
Tip: For thick carriers or additional collateral, test a sample to confirm fit and lid closure with the ribbon system.

Branding, Personalisation & Labeling
The surfaces of both versions accept labels, stickers, and common hand-applied branding elements. For professional printing or special effects (e.g., hot foil stamping, screen printing, deboss/emboss), conduct a small pilot test: ink adhesion, foil temperature/pressure, and color contrast behave differently on matt-laminated coated paper vs. unlaminated black dyed kraft.
- Apply brand stickers or swing tags to the ribbon for quick identity.
- Use metallic labels on black kraft for a striking contrast.
- Consider tone-on-tone effects (e.g., black on black) for a subtle luxury aesthetic.
Always validate finishing methods on production-equivalent samples before full rollout.

Material Notes & End-of-Life
The Card Holder Box is a paper-based solution. End-of-life handling depends on regional regulations and on any added finishes. Where facilities exist, separate mixed components (ribbon, labels) from paperboard. Check local guidelines for the most appropriate recycling or disposal pathway.
