Create folded business cards at 85 × 110 mm — printed flat, then folded to a standard 85 × 55 mm card with four usable panels instead of two.
A folded card is printed at 85 × 110 mm and folded once to the standard 85 × 55 mm. That fold buys you four panels instead of two, which is the point: the outside carries the name and role, and the inside has room for a service list, opening hours, a price list or an appointment grid. It is the standard choice for salons, practices, workshops and consultants — anyone whose card needs to carry reference information rather than just contact details. The cost is thickness, so use a lighter stock than you would for a flat card: 200 gsm folds cleanly, while 300 gsm cracks along the fold unless it is scored first.
You can print on plain paper and cut along the marks, or use a pre-cut sheet made for this format:
| No standard pre-cut sheet | Folded cards are generally printed on plain card stock and cut to size. Score the fold line before folding — 200 gsm and above will crack otherwise. |
|---|
Use 200 gsm rather than a heavier stock, and score the fold line with a bone folder or the back of a craft knife before folding. If you are printing both sides, run a two-sided test on plain paper first to confirm your printer's back-side alignment.
