EDGE PAINTING  |  NYC

Publicide is proud to offer edge painting as one of our many finishing options available at our Manhattan-based print shop. While spot Pantone color printing can make a big splash on the surface of your print project, we recommend using the same Pantone ink or a coordinating shade to color the printed item’s edge. Painting a business card’s edge with a single color lot of Pantone ink can add an unexpected pop & beautiful contrast to grey or black ink letterpress printing. Even full-color business cards with Colorplan Paper benefit from the added kiss of edge paint.

The thicker the paper’s edge the more noticeable the painted edge, so choose a thicker paper stock if you’re looking to inspire. We can also edge paint letterhead and notecard stationery to create a matching business collateral set. Try a fluorescent pink edge with gold foil lettering on pearl white all-cotton paper stock to create a memorable wedding invite, or choose a blush pink or powder blue Pantone ink edge on a baby announcement to welcome the newest addition to your family. Send us an email and check out samples of our edge-painted printing to help inspire your latest print ideas.
