Bring attention-grabbing color to announcements, classroom projects, and craft builds with this bulk Bright Orange cardstock.

How will this cardstock perform in printers and cutting machines?

This 65 lb (176 gsm) weight is stiff enough for covers and display pieces but still feeds reliably through most office printers. It also withstands the stresses of blade and die cutting, producing crisp shapes without a white core showing on edges.

• Smooth, jam-resistant printing with inkjet and laser devices
• Fully dyed stock prevents pale white edges after cutting
• Compatible with common electronic cutting machines for intricate designs
• Heavyweight feel suitable for covers, signs, and layered crafts

Can I use less color ink and still get strong results?

Yes — the vivid Bright Orange surface provides a high-impact backdrop so you can often rely on black or single-color printing for bold contrast. This saves on full-color ink while keeping strong legibility and visual pop.

• Print black text and graphics for stark contrast and lower ink costs
• Great for flyers, flashes, and informational handouts where color accents aren’t required
• High opacity reduces show-through from double-sided printing
• Consistent color across a large 320-sheet pack for uniform production runs

What crafting and archival qualities should I expect?

Astrobrights cardstock is acid-free and lignin-free, which helps preserve items over time without accelerated yellowing or deterioration from acidic content. The paper’s fully dyed composition also ensures neat edges when cutting, folding, or scoring for layered projects.

• Acid-free and lignin-free for longer-lasting projects
• Fully dyed sheet prevents white core when folded or cut
• Stiffness supports pops, signage, and robust paper engineering
• FSC-certified sourcing demonstrates responsible forestry practices
