Spot UV business cards

There’s Never a Dull Moment With Spot UV Business Card Printing

Tired of seeing the usual white and black business card? With spot UV business card printing, you won’t have to settle for boring business cards again. Spot UV accents highlight your logo, image, and other important information. Add this to make your business cards more interesting, introduce new products, or advertise special events. 

Be Shiny. Be Extra.

Here are some UV coated business card printing basics to help you get started:

• Printed on premium 16 pt. C2S cover stock in matte or gloss
• With gloss or matte stock coating on both sides
• You can print on one or both sides
• Spot UV coating prevents paper from peeling, tearing, fading, and scratches.
• Durable spot UV layer seals in the color and keeps dirt and grease off your business card

Tip: Add rounded corners to your business card to make it look premium.

Never a Drag

Spot UV coating feels smooth and silky to the touch. You’ll want to glide your fingers over it again and again. So don’t be surprised if people can’t seem to put down your business cards.

Each spot UV business card printing finish undergoes three stages:

• Apply. A high gloss, shiny liquid coating is applied to specific areas of a paper surface.
• Cure. The coating is cured on a printing press or special machine using ultraviolet light, hence the name UV.
• Harden. After the curing process, this coating hardens into a slick, glossy watermark effect.

Tip: Go with a matte stock finish for a higher contrast to make your spot UV accents pop.

A Size for Everyone

There are 5 business card sizes offered with spot UV so you have more room to add all information you want:

• 2” x 3.5”
• 2.125” x 3.375”
• 1.5” x 3.5”
• 1.75” x 3.5”

Tip: A larger sized spot UV business card printing means you have more real estate to put your information and message in.
