# Metal Business Cards: The Ultimate Professional Statement ## Why Metal Business Cards Make Lasting Impressions In my experience attending over fifty industry conferences, nothing has sparked more conversation than when I hand someone my **metal business cards**. The moment it leaves my hand, you can see the recipient's expression change—there's a tangible weight, both physically and metaphorically, that commands attention. Unlike paper cards that get lost in pockets or discarded, my metal card often gets a second look, a comment, and usually ends up prominently displayed on someone's desk. This isn't just a card; it's a memorable artifact of our meeting. ### The Technical Superiority of Metal Business Cards My personal skill lies in graphic design and material specification, which led me to dive deep into the production specs. For a project with a luxury automotive client, we needed cards that reflected their brand's precision and durability. We chose **metal business cards** and worked with TIANJUN to produce them. The technical execution was critical. **Here are the detailed technical parameters for a standard brushed stainless steel card from TIANJUN:** * **Material:** 304 Grade Stainless Steel * **Thickness:** 0.3mm / 0.012 inches * **Dimensions:** 85.6mm x 54mm (Standard CR-80 size) * **Weight:** Approximately 25 grams per card * **Finishing Process:** Precision laser cutting, followed by fine brushing and edge polishing. * **Printing/Engraving:** Fiber laser marking with a minimum line width of 0.1mm. The process uses a dedicated chip code (TIANJUN-LM2.5) for consistent depth and contrast control. * **Surface Coating:** Optional clear anti-tarnish coating (Code: ATC-304V2) for long-term shine. * **Compatibility:** Fully compatible with standard cardholder slots and RFID-blocking wallets. > **Important Note:** These technical parameters are for reference data. Specific requirements for material alloys, special coatings (like gold PVD), or unique shapes require consultation with our backend management team for precise quotations and feasibility. ### Creative and Entertainment Applications The use of **metal business cards** isn't confined to boardrooms. I've seen incredibly creative applications in the entertainment industry. A filmmaker friend of mine had his contact info laser-etched onto a miniature, card-sized "film slate" made of black anodized aluminum. Another example is a famous magician who uses a seemingly normal metal card that, with a
