Reverse etching is a process where the design elements (such as text or logos) are left raised while the background material is etched away, creating a recessed background and leaving the design elements raised. This technique is often used to create a high-contrast, tactile effect that can be both visually appealing and easy to feel.
Logos, text, and other design elements are etched into the metal using chemicals, creating a recessed effect.
Metal cards can be left in their natural color or coated/plated for different finishes (e.g., black, gold, rose gold, bronze, gunmetal, etc).
Laser etched metal business cards are crafted from thin sheets of metal, such as stainless steel, aluminum, brass, or copper. The design is etched onto the metal surface using a high-precision laser, which vaporizes a thin layer of the metal to create detailed and permanent markings. This process allows for complex and precise designs that are both visually striking and durable.
Cut-out Etched Metal Business Cards
The customized process involves using precise cutting techniques to create cut-outs or die-cuts within the card then etching intricate patterns, text, and logos onto the metal surface.
Printing On Etched Metal Business Cards
After the etching process, additional colors and graphics are printed onto the metal using techniques such as UV printing or screen printing. This combination results in a business card that is both visually striking and durable.
Color-filled Etched Metal Business Cards
Color-filled etched business cards start with a base metal card that has designs, text, or logos etched into its surface. After the etching process, the recessed areas are filled with colored enamel or paint, which is then cured to ensure durability.
Printed On Reverse Etched Metal Business Cards
The metal cards’ background areas are etched away, leaving the main elements raised above the surface. After the etching process, additional colors and graphics are printed onto the background areas using techniques such as UV printing or screen printing.
Cut-out Laser Etched Metal Business Cards
The production process involves cutting out specific areas to create cut-outs or die-cuts then using a high-precision laser to etch intricate patterns, text, and logos onto the metal surface.
Brushed Laser Etched Metal Business Cards
The surface of the metal is given a brushed finish, which creates a subtle texture and a sophisticated look. Then, designs, text, or logos are precisely etched onto the brushed surface using a high-precision laser.
