- Smooth matte lamination

Premium 18pt Laminated Postcards
These postcards begin with 16pt C2S card stock and are finished with matte lamination, producing an approximately 18pt finished card. The laminated surface provides a smooth foundation for the contrasting Spot UV details.
Selective Clear Spot UV
A separate Spot UV artwork file identifies where the clear gloss should be applied. This allows specific elements of the design to stand out against the surrounding matte laminated surface.
Slightly Raised Gloss Detail
The Spot UV creates a slightly raised glossy detail over selected areas of the postcard. Combined with the smooth matte lamination, this adds a noticeable tactile element as well as visual contrast.
Why Choose Spot UV Postcards?
Matte laminated Spot UV postcards are a strong choice when specific parts of a design need extra emphasis. Logos, text, patterns or graphic details can be highlighted with clear gloss while the surrounding postcard retains its smooth matte finish.
The combination of substantial laminated stock, matte and gloss contrast, and slightly raised Spot UV gives these premium postcards a distinctive visual and tactile character for marketing pieces, invitations, announcements and branded promotions.
