papier cartonné

Explanation:
Selon le contexte, on peut aussi le traduire par *papier pour cartes de visite*.

A mon avis, c'est plus proche du bristol (qui est toutefois plus léger) que du carton.

"Bristol A paper with a basis weight of 90# -120# but generally not as heavy as cover. Bristol papers are great for folders, index cards and covers and postcards.
(...)
Cover : Also called cardstock. A high-quality, heavyweight coated or uncoated paper. Great for greeting cards, business cards, magazine and annual-report covers folders."

"card•stock

Pronunciation: (kärd'stok"), [key]
—n.
paper stock stiff enough for the printing of business cards and similar uses."
