That’s the foundation upon which we build our high-quality Raffle Tickets. Card stock is, of course, paper, but it differs from printer paper or newspaper, by virtue of being heavier, thicker, and more durable. However, it is lighter and more flexible than cardboard.

Card stock is measure in grammage, which describes the weight of one square metre of a particular stock. Generally speaking, the grammage of paper deemed of card stock quality lies between one hundred and three hundred grammes per square metre.

Your choice of card stock will depend on several factors: your intention for the product and the impact you need that product to produce. For quick prize draws, you will probably choose a lighter-weight stock. For Raffle Tickets, 220 will work. If you will be selling tickets over a long period of time, and you expect supporters to hang on to their tickets over a space of days or weeks before the draw, you may choose a 300 gramme stock, for an impressively heavy ticket.

We recommend Adagio pastel as a background for your black and white tickets. Color-tech words well for colour tickets, as does Mega-Silk. You can choose coated or uncoated tickets, but all our tickets have a smooth finish for a professional look and feel!

So don’t worry! We know the difference between paper and cardboard. Rest assured that your Raffle Tickets are top of the line, no matter what paper you choose to print them upon.
