What is Plike cardstock and why is it so highly regarded?
These business cards are produced on premium black Plike cardstock in a double-layer construction, providing exceptional rigidity and a distinctive feel in hand.
Plike is renowned for its unique texture, often described as ultra-smooth with a subtle rubberised feel. It is widely regarded as one of the most desirable materials for premium business cards and exclusive branding projects.
What makes this business card model special?
The defining characteristic of this design is the use of glossy black finishes on a completely black substrate. Rather than relying on strong colour contrasts, the visual impact comes from the way light interacts with the different textures.
The contrast between the matte Plike surface and the glossy foil details creates a refined, contemporary effect that gradually reveals itself as the card is viewed from different angles.
How are the logo and brand name produced?
On the front of the card, the logo and company name are created using glossy black foil, precisely applied and lightly pressed into the surface of the cardstock.
This process gives the graphic elements a sophisticated appearance and generates subtle reflections that enhance the design without compromising its minimalist character.
How are the contact details and QR code produced?
The contact details, graphic symbols and QR code are produced using raised UV printing technology.
This process allows for highly precise detail reproduction and creates a subtle tactile elevation that can be appreciated both visually and by touch. It is particularly effective for elements that need to remain easy to identify and use.
What finishes are applied on the back side?
The back continues the minimalist concept through the use of the logo and two fine lines produced with the same glossy black foil.
The lines intersect in a certain point, where a red detail created with raised UV print is applied. The precise positioning of this element requires an exceptionally accurate production process to maintain the perfect balance of the composition.
How much do Plike business cards with glossy foil cost?
The final cost depends on factors such as quantity, design complexity or the finished thickness of the card.

How are they printed?
Foil business cards are produced using a custom-made magnesium die, created specifically for your design. The magnesium die is then mounted on a press that applies heat and pressure to transfer the foil onto the board. Foil stamping is a fine craft – this manual die-based application method delivers truly spectacular results, with exceptional depth and detail that far surpass any other metallic application technique.
Is hot foil stamping durable over time?
Yes. The hot foil stamping process, applied using custom dies, ensures excellent adhesion and a finish that maintains its appearance over time under normal usage conditions.
Can I customize the artwork?
Yes. We can apply any artwork or design you require.
What information can be included on the business cards?
You can include any information relevant to your business – such as name, job title, phone number, email address, physical address, website, or even a personal photo.
Can the dies be reused?
Yes. The dies can be reused for future orders.
Can other materials be produced in the same style?
Yes. The same visual identity can be extended across presentation cards, folders, corporate invitations, and other premium printed materials.
Which file formats are recommended for artwork?
For the highest print quality, we recommend supplying artwork in vector format (PDF, AI, EPS, or SVG). These formats allow logos, typography and graphic elements to be reproduced accurately at any size without loss of quality.
Raster formats such as JPG, PNG, and TIFF can also be used, provided they are supplied at a sufficiently high resolution for professional printing.
