Tent Cards – Detailed Description
Tent cards, as the name suggests are prints shaped like tents, strategically placed on tables, desks, counters, etc. to catch the customer’s eye. These cards have a one-point agenda – to grab customer attention.
As a marketing & promotion tool, tent cards are primarily designed to highlight a product, service, discount offer, or even a disclaimer.
A tent card’s primary application is to highlight a message right in front of a client’s face. And when placed on these desks or tables, the customer inevitably glances at the cards while they are waiting. So keeping these cards as menu stands for tables can up the chances of a customer ordering what special item you place on it.
Walk into any upscale restaurant and you’ll probably see a tent card for a restaurant printed on both sides, standing by itself in the middle of the table. Restaurant table tents are very popular amongst all kinds of eating establishments.
This tent card can be a menu stand for tables. The cards are also generally used to list chef specials, offers like free Wi-Fi, or happy-hour deals.
These printable tent cards stand at a slight angle to facilitate easy reading. They have a distinct tent-like shape with a flat stand beneath, like a tri-fold table tent. The flat base enables us to prop tent cards on tables, desks, and sales counters.
Our paper tent cards come in one size, 5 x 7 inches. For a longer-lasting display, we also make table stands from sunboard, corrugated board and acrylic (price on request).
Applications of Table Tent Cards
Tent cards are fabricated out of thick card sheets with the marketing communication printed on top. This makes them light and easy to replace whenever your offer changes. Printed tent cards are used at a variety of locations and for a number of applications, some of which are listed below…
- Tent cards are placed on dining tables at weddings to highlight the names of the marrying couple and their families. Similarly, table top easel stands are used at conferences to show the company logo.
- Tent cards are also used at events like receptions and parties to show seating arrangements.
- Sales counters use custom table tents to showcase discount schemes or highlight disclaimers.
- Cash counters have tabletop sign holders bearing a UPI payment QR code or a VISA / Mastercard logo. This shows the merchant’s ability to accept digital forms of payments.
- As mentioned earlier, printable tent cards for restaurants are used to entice customers to a particular dessert option or a special dish recommended by the chef. An enticing food photograph and striking description of the culinary dish helps the customer quickly make up his mind.
Tent Card Design and Material Specifications
Tent cards, when viewed from the side, are shaped like a tent. We take a long, stiff card sheet and fold it in the centre. The artwork is digitally printed on both sides of the fold. A base at the bottom opens out so the card stands up by itself on a desk, table or counter.
The card folds flat for shipping. When you need to make it stand, simply open the base.
We use a 250 GSM thick card sheet, stiff like a visiting card. Since there are several creases, we laminate the sheet so that no cracks develop along the folds. The lamination also protects the card from dust, water, scratches and everyday wear and tear, so it looks pristine for a long time.
Want it fixed in place? On request, we add double-sided tape to the base as an extra service; it is not part of the standard tent card. Open the base, peel the liner off the tape and press the card onto the table, so it never topples.
Our tent cards come in one size: 5 inches wide x 7 inches tall. Just give us two designs in this size, one for each side, or the same design for both sides.
Sunboard, Corrugated and Acrylic Table Stands – Alternatives to Paper Tent Cards
While the tent cards described above are made of paper, Orchid Digitals can also make table stands from sunboard, corrugated board and acrylic. These are thick, rigid and long-lasting, so they suit displays that stay on the counter for months, like a payment QR code at the billing counter.
Stationery stores sell blank acrylic stands for tables, into which you slide your printed sheet. At Orchid Digitals, the stand itself is printed with your artwork.
Sunboard, corrugated-board and acrylic stands are priced on request. Send us the size and quantity, and we will quote.
