We use precision extrusion molds to die-cut every set, resulting in consistent edges and smooth finishes. With years of experience, we’ve accumulated a large library of molds—so you can often avoid extra tooling fees. Below are some of our most commonly requested sizes:

2.50" x 3.50"

3.00" x 4.00"

2.75" x 4.75"

2.875" x 4.875"
