Yes. We provide a free design service to customer purchasing their business cards from us. More details on our free design service can be found here.

No. Each card design is bespoke. We tailor the artwork to your companies needs. We believe it's the only way to ensure that the card is as unique as the person or organisation it represents.

We understand that ordering a bespoke product can be a little daunting. We try to make the process as painless as possible. Once we have collected a few pieces of information, our design team puts together an initial concept and first draft. We then generate a photo-realistic digital mockup using our innovative proofing system. This shows exactly how the card would look once produced. Then, using your feedback, we make revisions until you are 100% happy with the layout.

We do not place a limit on the number of revisions we are prepared to undertake. Our only stipulation is that you, as the client, provide constructive feedback for each proof submitted. This helps ensure we can move the process forward and edge closer to a design you are happy with.

I am afraid not. With many of our products, it is simply not viable to manufacture just one or two as proofs. Instead, we have developed a state of the art digital proofing process that shows exactly how the design would look once manufactured. We are also happy to post physical examples of previously manufactured comparable products to you. Along with the digital proof, this should allow you to form an accurate vision of how the final product will look once it arrives.

An up to date lead time for our free design service is available here. Please bear in mind that the total time needed to complete the design process will heavily depend on the number of revisions we need to undertake before you are 100% happy with the layout.

Yes, but bear in mind that whatever is printed on the back is easily visible when viewed from the front.

No. Metallic inks are priced the same as pigment inks.

No. To print these types of cards we first etch the artwork into a metal plate. We then heat up that plate and apply it under pressure to the blank plastic. Between the two runs a large ink ribbon. The heat and pressure transfer the ink from the ribbon to the plastic card. This printing system allows us to use beautiful metallic inks and provides a good bond between the ink and plastic. But it prevents us from reproducing full colour graphics like photographs. However, we do produce a full colour plastic business card that is more suited when reproducing photographs etc. More details can be found here.

Yes. The process used to print our translucent plastic cards differs from more conventional methods (CMYK etc). We advise reading through our documentation. We are happy to offer advice and technical assistance and will do our best to make the process as painless as possible.

Not at all. Our translucent plastic cards are made from SicoEco, an environmentally friendly polymer infused with sea salt that triggers accelerated degradation once the card reaches landfill or compost. We also print using vegetable-based inks. The cards are degradable, compostable and recyclable.

No. Metallic inks are priced the same as pigment inks.

Not directly with this process. To print our tinted translucent plastic cards we first etch the artwork into a metal plate, then heat the plate and apply it under pressure to the blank plastic. Between the two runs a large ink ribbon, and the heat and pressure transfer the ink from the ribbon to the plastic. This system gives us beautiful metallic inks and a strong bond, but it isn't suited to reproducing photographs or complex full colour graphics. For those, we'd suggest our full colour plastic or metal cards, both of which support full colour printing.

Sure. A micron is 1000th of a millimetre. The thickest card is 760 micron. This is the same as a standard credit card. 680 micron is very slightly thinner and slightly more flexible. However, it takes a trained eye to spot the difference unless you have examples of each thickness in each hand. 420 micron is considerably thinner and far more flexible.
