all our plastic cards are proudbly printed in England

Metallic Plastic Card Printing

Metallic plastic cards make an immediate impression. Whether you choose gold or silver, the reflective base card combined with our hot foil printed colours creates something that genuinely stands out from a standard printed card.

We print every card here in England using hot foil printing machinery, a process that stamps metallic foils and vivid pigment colours onto the card surface under heat and pressure.

The result is sharp, durable printing with colours that catch the light in a way that conventional ink simply cannot replicate.
Cards are solid PVC, bank card size and thickness, with printing available on both sides. Minimum order is just 25 cards, and once your order is placed we'll email you a photorealistic proof — usually within the hour — so you can see exactly how your finished cards will look before we go to print.

We've been printing plastic cards in England since 1992. If you want a card that gets noticed, you're in the right place.
