  A premium, tactile effect created by pressing your design into the cover. No ink required - just a clean impression for a refined, understated finish.

Frequently Asked Questions

Are kraft notebooks eco-friendly?

Yes - the inner pages are made from recycled cream 70gsm paper, and the kraft cover is naturally produced. It's an excellent choice for brands prioritising sustainability.

Can I print in full colour on kraft?

Yes. Full-colour digital printing is available in one position on the front cover.

Will my logo show clearly on the brown background?

Most logos reproduce well on kraft, but high-contrast colours (white, black, dark blue, red) work best. Our team can advise during artwork setup.

What's the difference between digital one-colour and digital full-colour?

• One-colour = a single ink colour, ideal for simple branding.

• Full-colour = unlimited colours, suitable for complex designs or gradients.

What does ‘debossed' mean?

Debossing presses your logo down into the cover, creating a textured impression without using ink. It's a premium, elegant finish.

Can I choose the colour of the band, ribbon and pen loop?

Yes - options include:
Black, Natural, Cyan, Green, Navy, Royal Blue, Red. See image for colour and closest Pantone match.

What is the minimum order?
