The frosted finish adds an air of sophistication, making your business cards stand out amidst traditional paper-based alternatives. The 760 micron PVC material offers excellent durability and resilience, ensuring the cards withstand daily handling without losing its pristine appearance. The frosted effect not only enhances the visual appeal but also provides a tactile experience, leaving a lasting impression on potential clients or partners.
When it comes to designing frosted business cards, certain elements can enhance its overall appeal. A minimalist approach works exceptionally well, with clean lines and simple designs that compliment the card’s translucent surface. Subtle patterns or textures, such as delicate geometric shapes or light gradients, can add depth and visual interest without overpowering the card’s frosted appearance. Soft, muted colours can create a striking contrast against the frosted background, making key details or contact information stand out. Ultimately, the key is to strike a balance between simplicity and sophistication, ensuring that the design elements harmonise with the frosted texture to create a memorable and professional business card.

Lamination
Printed graphics without lamination will retain its original texture, which can create a unique aesthetic appeal. However, the print will be more susceptible to wear and tear, as it will have no protective layer provided by lamination. Over time, the lack of lamination may result in fading, smudging and decreased durability. While the absence of lamination allows for a distinct tactile experience with an initial cost saving, it’s essential to consider the trade-off in terms of longevity and resilience.
- Without lamination the print retains its original texture and cheaper to buy
- Lamination provides a protective layer that enhances durability
- The various lamination films can enhance the look and feel of the print
Matt lamination provides a non-reflective finish with zero shine. It adds a smooth texture to the surface while preserving the integrity of the print without any colour loss.
