We have had a lot of orders recently for our frosted clear plastic business cards.

More of the orders have been for 500 cards (current price is £125 +vat) printed with metallic silver.

Below is a small gallery showing some frosted clear plastic business cards that we have printed.

Hi All,

Just thought I would share the following email with you:

Tthe plastic cards arrived this morning and i am extremely pleased with them.

Thank you.

If i wanted more do i just quote the company name. and you have the art work on file ?

thanks again. for a very easy and quick service at a high quality finish”

I emailed the customer straight back to thank him for his email as it was very much appreciated.

This customer ordered some of our frosted clear plastic cards with metallic copper ink, the printer who printer this order actually commented how nice it looked and came through to show me!

Very glad the customer is pleased with them

Bye for now, feel free to post any nice comments! You can post not so nice ones as well if you like, we are always open to constructive feedback.

We have updated the website to promote our free design service for frosted, satin black and metallic plastic cards.

The design service can be requested via a form which asks various questions.

We ask the customer to provide as much information as possible to help with the design process, this way we can ensure that the design is customised as much as possible to the customers own vision. We provide examples of past work which can help provide ideas to the customer and we can base there design around on of these if required. The more information we had to go off the easier it is to create a stunning design based on the customers own needs and requirements.

Logos etc can be uploaded to the design request form, ideally these are provided as line artwork and in a high enough resolution so that the quality will not suffer when the cards are printed.

Please give the design request for a go if you are looking for a personalised design.

Alternatively you can email your own artwork to us, we will provide an email proof for your approval.

Bye for now.

This clear plastic card is printed with 3 ink colours

Hi all,

It has come to our attention that a lot of American companies are advertising clear plastic cards on the internet search engines. I just wanted to point out that we are a UK based company and our cards are produced in the UK.

This means that the production and shipping time for your order is not delayed by the cards having to cross waters or potentially been delayed by customs.

Also remember that we your order goods from America you will also be subject to duty (which I believe is 5%) and VAT (which we would obviously have to apply at the current rate of 15%).

Please come and purchase our clear cards, they are great!

Bye for now.

Since we have started calling our frosted plastic cards, clear plastic cards or clear business cards we have already started to receive more enquiries for them.

We offer free design service for our clear business cards, alternative the customer can supply the artwork if they prefer.

We have made a few tweaks to our website recently to make it easier to navigate and find the information.

One important change we have made to the clear plastic card page is adding the navigation buttons to the top of each page in addition to the bottom.

An example of a clear plastic card order

Hot foil printing has been around for a long long time however unfortunately the products we offer via this printing method (frosted plastic cards, satin black plastic cards and some metallic plastic cards) are just not selling as well at the moment as they have been in the past.

We have recently discovered that our frosted plastic cards are often referred to by customers as clear business cards or clear plastic cards so we are now calling them this instead.

We have tried different ways to promote these cards including re-designing the web pages, including artwork in the price and just generally promoting them as a professional yet contemporary plastic card. However this has surprisingly not really increased the sales in this area.

We will try our best to think of other ways to promote this excellent product however if anybody out there comes up with any ideas for us, please drop us a line.

Its not a product we are looking to stop selling as we appreciate that customers do want the choice.

Catch you soon

Another loverly clear plastic card example

This is another nice looking clear plastic card design that we printed this week for a customer.

It is a clear plastic card printed with red and black ink.

Our design studio created the design for the customer based on their input and once approved we printed and delivered the cards within 10 working days.

A clear plastic card printed with black and red ink

We have produced frosted plastic cards for many years and we have always called them frosted cards. However recently we have started to also call them clear cards, frosted clear cards and even translucent cards as this is what some our of competitors call them and customers often get confused thinking they are all different products. So don’t worry if you see description on name changes on our website, the cards are still the same but we are changing the name to help our customers.

Likewise, our satin black plastic cards are sometimes called matt black plastic cards, they are both the same think. Basically they are a black plastic card with a non-glossy finish. You could argue all day whether it is a matt or a satin finish we just choose to call them satin but we will also be referring to them as matt to help customers.

Recently a customer placed an order for 500 frosted cards with blue, white and holoprint ink. We all though that this particular design looked wonderful and without any prompt the customer very nicely emailed the following to us:

“Just recieved my order from you and everything was perfect even though I have only had dealing’s with your company through e-mail I found your service very professional and efficent and I look forward to using your service’s in the near future.”

Its great to receive feedback and to to hear that they are a satisfied customer.

As always we welcome any feedback positive or negative – we always look to improve things where we can.

I just wanted to post a quick blog about our newly designer frosted plastic cards, satin black plastic cards and metallic plastic cards web pages.

The webpages now detail:

- Our free design service (subject to a deposit)
- Card examples / photographs
- Prices
- Ink colours available
- Artwork specifications should customers wish to submit there own artwork

These products are printed via hot foil machines. We often find the customers prefer the metallic silver ink on these cards as it looks very professional and a little unusual. The metallic silver ink also has a create contrast, especially when applied to the satin black cards.

I feel that the new web pages are much clearer now.

I hope you all find the new design informative and easy to navigate.
