Specialised Card Stocks and Professional Finishing

The quality of a deck is defined by its substrate. At London - City, we offer premium card stocks typically ranging from 300gsm to 350gsm, including specialised black-core or blue-core playing card boards. These professional-grade materials feature an opaque centre layer that prevents light from shining through, ensuring that players cannot see the designs on the opposite side—an essential requirement for competitive gaming. Every card is precision-cut with standard rounded corners, ensuring a comfortable grip and preventing the edges from scuffing during use.

To ensure your cards look as good as they play, we provide a range of protective finishes. You can opt for a UV plastic coating or a smooth linen finish, both of which provide the necessary slip for effortless shuffling and dealing. For those looking for a luxury aesthetic, we also offer matt or gloss lamination to protect the ink from oils and moisture. We can produce decks in any quantity, from one-off personalised gifts for weddings and anniversaries to high-volume runs for commercial distribution.
