A4 and A5 Strut Card Printing in Staffordshire
If you require a versatile, affordable and easy-to-design marketing tool, then printed strut cards might just be for you.
Also known as showcards, these high-quality free-standing displays are typically used for promoting new offers and products, placed on countertops, tables and receptions, capturing the attention of customers every time they pass.
Unlike leaflets and brochures, which contain lots of information, these should stay bold, snappy and exciting. Use large buzzwords, bright artwork and a short message to make customers aware of what’s on the menu – maybe even literally. For more desk or counter branding, our Desk Pads or Notepads can further boost brand exposure where customers see it most.
Restaurants and bars can use Strut Cards to promote festive drinks or food menus, while receptions and tills can let customers know what payment options are available.
Alternatively, draw potential customers in at tradeshows by promoting sign-up deals, or use them for health and safety signage or customer direction. These are fantastic counter or tabletop displays and can be used in a similar way to our printed Table Talkers and Tent Cards, which are equally great for promotional messaging on tabletops and counters.

Benefits of bespoke printed Strut Cards
It’s no secret that our attention spans have gotten shorter, but with these, you will have no problem capturing the eyes of potential customers with a short, snappy message. Use bright colours and fun artwork to ensure your promotion never goes amiss.
Printed snap cards are significantly cheaper than alternative marketing methods, so when you want to promote a temporary offer, like a Christmas menu or a one-of-a-kind sale.
If you’re a business often on the move, maybe an at-home nail technician, salesman or someone who visits lots of tradeshows, freestanding displays are perfect for you. Since the strut on the back folds flat, you can easily transport your brand message with you everywhere you go.
Since printed show cards are widely used for temporary point-of-sale promotions, it makes sense that they can be stored away for when they’re not in use. The fold-down strut at the back means you can store them easily without taking up much room, and when you’re ready to use them again, simply pop the stand back out.
Frequently Asked Questions
What is a strut card?
How to design display Cards?
When it comes to designing strut cards, it’s important to remember that a short, bold and snappy message is best. At the end of the day, you want to attract customers quickly as they pass and not overwhelm them with lots of text, which will inevitably be ignored. Instead, tease with a large, clever headline which immediately directs the customer to a particular product or offer.
Once you’ve got their attention, you can then include a message of some sort, maybe it’s more information about a new dish on the menu, a QR code which leads them to your website or a price list of some of your services.
If you’re unsure where to begin, grab our blank templates. Or get in touch for advice on design, turnaround times, and lamination options. Artwork for print should always be in a CMYK colour scheme as that’s what we use with litho or digital printing.
When you’re done, simply upload your artwork and let us know your preferred turnaround, and we will handle the rest.
Remember, all of our orders come with free UK delivery, ensuring you a cost-effective print service. If artwork isn’t your thing, check out our Bespoke Design Service —we’ll handle everything for you at a reasonable cost.
