Metallic Foil Business Cards from Headline Printers in Havant
Metallic Foiled Business Cards Shine Bright from Headline Printers business cards range.
Customise our metallic foil business cards to the exact design you want. Go full glam with a lot of foil or add smaller elements (not too small though – check the technical specifications tab in our FAQ section below for all the information about specifics you need to know about designing foiled business cards)
We have you covered on five colourways that incorporate classic gold and bang-on-trend copper.
These foiled prints may look expensive but they are surprisingly affordable, they are the sort of card that people comment on and like to touch. If ASMR were in business card format we’d have to say that metallic foil (or spot UV) would be the front runners.
How we print foiled elements onto business cards:
We print on to a classic 350gsm silk paper, a 350gsm uncoated paper or a heavier weight 400gsm silk. The digital foil is then applied on top of a tactile matt soft-touch laminate. The foil lays flat on top of the laminate so that it shimmers and catches the light. Foil is only available on one side.
We have several options for these custom foiled cards:
- Rectangle or square
- Rounded corners
- Matt soft-touch lamination on one or both sides
- 3 paper stocks
- 5 foil colours
Top tip: Choose uncoated paper with a single-sided lamination for a card that can can be handwritten on the reverse.
If all this fabulous shimmer is too much for this time around, have a look at these other cards. We would recommend having a look at the pearl finish cards in particular as they offer some shimmer but in a more subtle way, so please check out our other options for business card printing.

For double-sided foil business cards please supply your artwork as a 4-page PDF. Page 1 is the front of the artwork, page 2 is the back of the artwork, page 3 is the Foil artwork for the front and page 4 is blank. The Foil artwork should contain solid black shapes in the exact position where the Foil is required.
If you are printing a one-sided document, then a 2-page PDF is required where page 1 is the design and page 2 is the Foil artwork. Please ensure Foil artwork is 100% black only and does not contain any cyan, magenta or yellow.
Please note: Foil application has registration tolerances of approximately ±0.5 mm. It is not therefore recommended that small text (10pt minimum) or thin lines (2pt minimum) are foiled as perfect register cannot be guaranteed. For this reason, we advise against representing your foiling within your CMYK artwork. Slight misalignment of the foil could result in lines or ‘shadows’ of this foil representation being visible on your final product
• Include 3mm bleed on all sides
• Supply as a CMYK PDF, preferably in PDF/x1a format
• Outline or embed fonts
• 300dpi resolution
• We recommend that any foil is at least 3mm from the trim edge to achieve the best results.
• Vector foil graphics will produce better results than bitmaps. Bitmap foil graphics should be supplied in 300 dpi for best quality results.
• The minimum font size is 10pt and line weights should be at least 2pt.
• Serif fonts are advised against as the serifs may contain elements that are not 2pt in thickness.
Our sizes for metalic foil business cards are:
- 85mm x 55mm
- 55mm x 55mm
Yes you can.
Soft touch lamination not only makes your business cards look amazing, but also helps foiling adhere incredibly well to the surface of the lamination.
Yes. You can opt for an overall round corner option shown, just let us know when you enquire about soft touch laminated business card printing.
Unfortunately not. Laminated paper is difficult to recycle as the paper cannot be separated from the lamination once applied.
