Luxury Spot UV & Metallic Foil Business Card Printing
If you want a card that truly "wows," our Spot UV and Foil Business Cards are the answer. By adding a 3D Raised Spot UV gloss or a shimmering Gold/Silver Foil to specific parts of your design—like your logo or name—you create a tactile experience that engages both sight and touch. These luxury scodix business cards are the ultimate choice for creative agencies, luxury retailers, and high-end service providers.
Make an Impact with Raised 3D Gloss & Metallic Accents
Standard printing is flat, but tactile business cards add a third dimension to your branding. Our metallic foil printing involves applying a premium foil film to your cards, available in Gold, Silver, Copper, or Rose Gold. When combined with our soft-touch lamination, the contrast between the velvety background and the high-shine foil creates a stunning visual masterpiece.
The Science of First Impressions
Research shows that people hold onto textured business cards ten times longer than standard ones. Whether you choose Silver foil for a modern look or Gold foil for traditional luxury, these cards act as a conversation starter before you even say a word. Our short-run foil printing makes this high-end finish accessible even for small businesses.
Spot UV & Foil FAQs: Everything You Need to Know
What is Raised Spot UV?
Raised Spot UV (or Scodix) is a clear, glossy liquid that is cured with UV light. It sits on top of the card, creating a 3D texture you can actually feel with your fingers.
Can I combine Foil and Spot UV on the same card?
Yes! This is the ultimate luxury option. However, we recommend keeping the design clean so the two finishes don't compete for attention.
Do I need special artwork for Foil cards?
Yes, you need to provide a separate "mask file" in 100% K (Black) to show us exactly where you want the foil or UV applied. Our team offers a free file check to help you set this up correctly.
Is the foil durable, or will it flake off?
We use a high-heat bonding process to ensure your metallic foil cards are durable and won't flake or peel during normal use.
What is the turnaround time for luxury finishes?
Specialty finishes like Spot UV and Foil require extra drying and curing time. Typically, these take 5-7 working days, but the result is well worth the wait for a premium brand identity.

How to Prepare Your Artwork
To ensure the highest quality print, please supply your artwork in PDF format. We recommend saving your files with the 'High Quality Print' preset. Here are a few essential tips for the perfect print:
- Bleed Area: Please include a minimum of 3mm bleed on all edges of your design. This ensures no white borders are left when we trim your product to the final size.
- Safe Zone: Keep all important text, contact details, and logos at least 3mm away from the trim edge.
- Resolution: All images and graphics should be supplied at 300dpi (dots per inch) for crisp, clear, and professional results.
- Colour Mode: Convert all RGB and spot colours to CMYK format before exporting your file to avoid unexpected colour shifts.
