Peoples passion for playing card games knows no limits. Millions of people of all ages love card games; everyone enjoys the tension and excitement experienced during play. Cards are also played in an open, friendly atmosphere of togetherness: the perfect situation to convey your message. Giving away playing s cards as a promotional gift is a sure winner: attractive, playful and a fun gift and a very effective medium at the e same time.

Media Efficiency of Playing Cards

A study in the premium product market, shows that playing cards end up as the number one choice in the eye of the consumer, this in comparison to five other promotional items (pens, lighters, base caps, key chains & calenders). Key factors of this success are the time of usage, possibility for creative concepts, the immediate impact of the message, ability to carry additional content and the recall rate of the product

Everything starts with the right choice of cardboard tarts

This determines the playing experience, the quality, ying and the longevity of the cards. Cardboard makes all the difference. Need help? Our sales team will show you the difference.

Do you want more... respect for nature?

Cartamundi continues to improve and demonstrate innovation. In doing so, we never lose sight of whats best for the environment! For example, for the choice of paper/board we can play the card of responsible Forestry Management. And this is just one example of how we are keen to show respect for the world around us. Our commitment to the environment will continue to grow and we look forward to other companies following suit.
The FSC (Forest Stewardship Council) is an international, non-profit making organisation (based on membership, which has set itself the goal of preserving forests). In doing so, the FSC has laid down a number of rules for responsible forestry management. In forests where these rules apply, trees are felled with care, with respect for people, plants and animals. The PEFC (Programme for the Endorsement of Forest Certification Schemes) promotes and guarantees economically viable, environmentally friendly and socially favourable forestry management.

Special Effects?
Are you looking for something with more glitter and glamour? Special effects such as foil-blocking, glitter or fluorescent inks on the backs, gilt in gold or silver on the edge... why not give your cards that something extra special?
