Our Business Cards

Founded in 2007, PlasmaDesign’s nucleus is a small, dedicated team of designers and craftsmen. Whether it's using chemically milled stainless steel,  laser cut wood, translucent biodegradable plastic, or traditional letterpress, PlasmaDesign is world renowned for producing business cards that are different. 

Our Story

We combine cutting edge design with traditional manufacturing techniques, helping to preserve crafts that would otherwise fall by the wayside in our increasingly automated and impersonal world. It’s this dedication that cultivates a level of ownership, pride and excellence that shines through in our products.

Our DesigNs

We provide a completely free design service. We don't believe in templates. Instead we believe that the development of the artwork should be a collaborative, creative process. Our designers give your business card design the time and attention it deserves, ensuring that the finished article is as unique as you and your organisation.

Metal Business Cards

Our metal business cards make a statement. Manufactured from rolled stainless steel using state of the art photo-etching, automated milling and autocatalytic plating processes, they marry form and function perfectly. We intricately cut through the metal and etch into the surface of the steel.

Wood Business Cards

Our 3mm thick wooden business cards are available in Finnish birch, Canadian maple, bamboo, American cherry and black walnut, all chosen for their distinct coloration and characteristics. Every card is laser cut from a larger sheet, giving each one its own unique grain. The strata construction eliminates any weakness and enables intricate cut patterns without fear of fragility. 

Acrylic Business Cards

Each of our acrylic business cards, produced using genuine 3mm thick Perspex®, is sculpted using a high power CO2 laser. This not only enables us to alter the shape of the card’s perimeter, but also to cut away intricate repeating patterns and graphics. Once carved, we then print each card by hand using traditional artisanal techniques.  

Plastic Business Cards

Our plastic business cards are truly unique. The plastic is the same thickness as a standard credit card. Every single one is printed by hand, bringing modern materials and traditional manufacturing techniques together in an innovative business card that ensures you stand out from the crowd. 

Letterpress Business Cards

Our letterpress business cards are printed by hand using traditional artisanal techniques. There’s no automation and no compromise. Each ink is gently embedded into the subtly textured surface. A seam of colour runs through the centre of the triplex card, adding a unique finishing touch. We now also offer the option of spectacular gilded edges.

PAPER business cards

Our paper business cards are printed on an array of sustainably sourced, high quality pulps with different finishes. We can hand print all our papers using traditional foiling methods. In addition to vegetable-based pigment spot colours, we also offer a curation of metallic foils, UV spot gloss, CMYK litho print and laser cutting options.

Founded in 2007, our nucleus is a small, dedicated team of designers and craftsmen. 

GRAPHIC Designers

At our core we're designers. Our company is built around the belief that an effective business card has to be as unique as the person handing it out. Our dedicated graphics team has years of experience, designing bespoke, original business card designs using innovative materials. 

Artisan Printers

Sometimes the old ways truly are the best ways. The handcrafted nature of our production process enables us to reproduce artwork that wouldn't otherwise be possible. This dedication to traditional techniques cultivates a level of ownership and pride that’s simply not possible when production is heavily automated.

Customer Care Ninjas

The single most important thing to us is the happiness of our customers. We believe that by producing truly great products and delivering the sort of stellar customer service only a small company can provide, the more mundane side of the business will take care of itself. Our customers agree.

Below is a selection of cards, each the result of the free design service offered to every customer. 

We provide an entirely free design service to customers who don't already have print-ready artwork. Once we have collected a few pieces of information, our design team puts together an initial concept. We then generate a photo-realistic digital mockup using our innovative proofing system. This shows how the card would look once produced. Then, using your feedback, we make revisions until you are 100% happy with the layout. 

Completely Bespoke

No two people or businesses are alike. We've created artwork for tens of thousands of customers and never come across two organisations whose requirements are identical. We don’t believe in templates. Instead, we firmly believe that the development of the artwork should be a collaborative, creative process that is given the time and attention it deserves. It’s the only way to make sure that the business card is as unique as the person handing it out.

Innovative Proofs

Customers need an understanding of how the final product will look and feel before placing an order. Yet the cost of tooling makes it impractical to manufacture single specimens. We’ve solved this dilemma using a digital proofing system. We provide images showing how the card will look once produced. Coupled with our ability to provide samples of previously manufactured cards, the customer can accurately assess the design and quality of their card before placing their order. 

Multiple Revisions

We are not naïve enough to think that the first design we send you will be a winner. There will be elements you like and some you don’t. Every customer has different tastes and priorities. So we don’t place an arbitrary limit on the number of revisions we’re prepared to undertake. Instead, we work with you, using your feedback to patiently revise and alter the artwork, moving the project forward until you are 100% happy with the way it looks.
