What does GSM mean?
When we talk about different types of paper, we often use the phrase ‘GSM’ which stands for ‘Grams per Square Meter’
Higher the value, higher will be the thickness of the paper.
As a starting point, standard printer paper is generally around 80gsm. We use high quality grade card and paper from 135gsm to 350gsm.
