    How it behaves in production

    • Real 100% cotton, uncoated with a soft toothy surface — treat like our cotton_32pt for feel, but render the specific colour (soft cool grey).
    • Letterpress bites deep and clean — always fine on this stock. Foil (any colour) sits crisp on top. Blind emboss/deboss reads strong.
    • Core wedding + business-card stock — safe to propose as a default, especially for classical or restraint-led briefs.
    • Edge painting available at 32pt+ duplex construction only (this is 300gsm single-ply, ~14pt) — do not promise painted edges unless building a duplex.

    Common questions

    Is Gmund Cotton New Grey dyed through?
    Yes. The colour runs all the way through the sheet, so a cut, debossed, or die-cut edge shows the same soft cool grey as the face — no white core.
    Can you letterpress on Gmund Cotton New Grey?
    Yes — it is one of the techniques we run on this stock. Letterpress ink is semi-translucent, so on darker shades it reads tone-on-tone; on light shades it prints as expected.
    What weights do you stock Gmund Cotton New Grey in?
    300 gsm. Heavier weights can usually be duplexed to order — ask and we will confirm before quoting.
    Can I see it before I order?
    Yes, and you should. Screens flatten texture and shift colour. We send physical samples of any stock in this directory before you commit.
