Carbonless copy pads

Ordering carbonless printing pads at Print.com

Carbonless printing pads, also known as write-through pads, provide a simple and effective solution for making multiple copies of documents. Think, for example, of invoices, receipts, work orders or other important papers. At Print.com, you will find them as individual sets or as blocks.

How does a carbonless printing pad set work?

Each carbonless set consists of a minimum of 2 and a maximum of 4 sheets of paper. The top sheet is coated on the back with microcapsules containing dye or ink. The second sheet is treated on the front with a reactive agent that reacts with the dye of the microcapsules and also provided with microcapsules on the back if you have more than two sheets in the set, or if you have only two sheets not provided with microcapsules on the back.  

To distinguish the sheets from the carbonless printing pads, you can choose from different colours for your second, third or fourth sheet:

• Pink
• Blue
• Yellow
• Green
• White

The first sheet is always white as standard.

Choose from different sizes for your carbonless printing pads

In our ordering app, we offer carbonless printing pads in several standard sizes:

• A4 horizontally and vertically
• A5 horizontally and vertically
• A6 horizontally and vertically
• Din large en Din large horizontally
• US large and US large horizontally

In addition to our standard sizes, we also offer the possibility to customise your size. So you will always find the perfect size for your documents.

Personalise your carbonless printing pads: choose from various printing options

One of the biggest advantages of using carbonless printing pads is the ability to customise them fully. From 1/0 PMS for simple, single-colour designs to 4/0 full-colour printing. For documents that have extra information on the back, we also offer 1/1, 2/1, 3/1 and 4/1 options. These options allow you to communicate not only your company logo but also any other important information.

In addition to carbonless printing pads, you will also find stationery, envelopes or, for example, pens in our selection of office supplies.
