Quality control is critical for trading cards where collectors scrutinize every detail. We maintain calibrated equipment, use color management systems, run test sheets before full production, and inspect cards throughout the printing process. For large runs, we often provide advance samples from the actual production run so you can approve color and quality before we complete the full quantity. Registration—the alignment of different printed colors—is equally important, and our equipment and processes ensure precision. 

Absolutely. Most trading card games need multiple packaging formats. Starter decks might come in rigid boxes with room for deck, rules, and accessories. Booster packs typically use sealed foil wrappers or paperboard sleeves. Collector sets might feature premium boxes with foam inserts displaying rare cards. We design packaging families where each format serves its function while maintaining cohesive branding across your product line. This variety lets players and collectors engage with your game at different price points and commitment levels. 

It depends on complexity and quantity. For a straightforward project with finalized artwork—perhaps a promotional deck or limited release—we might turn it around in a few weeks. Larger projects with hundreds of unique cards, multiple packaging types, and extensive finishing options take longer. If you’re launching a new game or expansion, involve us early. We can prototype packaging while card designs finalize, ensuring everything comes together on schedule. Rush timelines are possible for smaller projects, but planning ahead produces better results.
