Spot UV Business Card

Make Your Cards Shine with Premium Spot UV Business Card Printing

Spot UV business cards are a premium choice for businesses that want their branding to feel modern, confident, and high-end. This finish combines a smooth matte laminated base with a selective high-gloss UV coating that is applied only to chosen areas—such as your logo, brand name, icons, or design patterns. The result is a striking contrast you can both see and feel, making your card more memorable during introductions, meetings, and client handovers.

These raised UV business cards are ideal when you want a clean, professional design with a luxury touch. For best results, keep the Spot UV elements bold and simple, as very small text and thin lines may lose clarity. If you want maximum impact, apply Spot UV to your logo and key brand details, while keeping the rest of the layout matte for contrast. This creates a premium “touch effect” that instantly upgrades the perceived value of your business card.

Technical specifications: Finished size 85mm x 55mm (standard), 350 GSM premium card stock, matte lamination with Spot UV gloss highlights, single-sided or double-sided printing available. Artwork should be supplied as a print-ready PDF (CMYK, 300 DPI) with 3mm bleed and a 5mm safe margin. A separate Spot UV layer is recommended to mark UV areas clearly.

For a complete brand stationery set, pair your cards with NCR Pad Printing for invoices and job sheets, Envelope Printing for professional posting, Notepad and Desk Pad Printing for office use and daily brand visibility.
