Compare 30mil
Plastic Business Card Materials.

30mil (0.76mm) is the global benchmark for a premium credit card. Most online printers use a flimsy 20mil (0.50mm) stock to save on shipping—it feels like a thin plastic toy and lacks the "snap" of a professional card. We don't do imitations. Luxor only produces true 30mil stock because anything less feels like a cheap compromise. This rigid tactile weight ensures your brand is perceived as the "Real Deal" the second it hits someone’s hand.

If you utilize one of our curated collection templates, the transparency is pre-architected and will be clearly shown in your digital proof. For custom uploaded designs, simply leave a note in the order comments specifying your vision (e.g., "Make the background clear, but keep the logo solid"). Our Design Concierge will map the transparency and send a high-fidelity mockup for your approval before we go to press.

Absolutely. We can manipulate ink density to achieve various degrees of opacity for truly stunning depth effects. By layering different levels of "stained-glass" translucency, we create a multi-dimensional aesthetic that makes your brand elements appear to float within the card. If you want a specific "see-through" color effect, just mention "Variable Opacity" in your order instructions.

Clear cards are completely transparent like polished glass, offering high impact for minimalist designs. Frosted cards have a semi-transparent, matte texture that diffuses light, creating a sophisticated "etched" look while being significantly more resistant to fingerprints and micro-scratches.

Standard CMYK inks are translucent. Without white ink, your logo would look like stained glass on a clear card. We apply a solid white "hit" behind your artwork to make it 100% opaque and vivid. This is included with our service—our designers handle all the technical file setup for you.

Absolutely. Unlike paper or coated cardstock, our optical-grade PVC is non-porous. Luxor cards can be submerged in water without ink delamination or substrate swelling. They are engineered to survive in wallets for years, remaining as crisp as the day they were manufactured.

Extremely durable. 100% waterproof and tear-proof, designed to last a lifetime unlike traditional paper cards. These are engineered from technical-grade PVC to ensure brand longevity.

We use the international standard credit card dimensions: 3.375" x 2.125" (CR80) with precision-machined 1/8" rounded corners for a premium, ergonomic tactile feel.

No problem. Simply leave any notes for the design you want or upload any inspiration photos. Your personal Design Concierge will work directly with you to achieve the perfect design for your brand.
