Hand Over a Card Cut From Metal
This one stops a hand mid-motion, because it isn't paper wearing a metallic coat. It starts as real 28pt Shiny Aluminum stock, silk-laminated on both sides, so the whole surface carries a genuine metal shine while the lamination keeps it smooth to the touch. Your full-color artwork prints over that reflective base, letting highlights sit on a metallic ground plain card cannot copy. Silk aluminum foil business cards start at $276.63 for a set of 250, and one signals that the work behind it is premium too.
These cards earn their price by doing what a paper card cannot: the base itself moves light. A real metal stock plus a silk lamination costs more than plain ink on paper, which is exactly why it feels like more in the hand. Want to see how it sits next to the rest of the lineup? Browse every style on business cards printing, or stay here and build yours from the choices below.
The price rewards a bigger run. A set of 250 starts at $276.63, about $1.11 a card, and the per-card cost keeps sliding as the count climbs to 2,000, where it lands near $0.33. Tap any tier below to see the live set total and exactly how much each step up saves before you commit.
What Are Silk Aluminum Foil Business Cards?
Silk aluminum foil business cards are full-color cards printed on a 28pt Shiny Aluminum stock and silk-laminated on both sides, which gives a metallic, mirror-like surface. At 4OVER4.COM they print in 3 sizes with 4/0, 4/1 or 4/4 ink, and you can add foil stamping, embossing, raised spot UV and edge painting on top. People reach for a metal card when the card is part of the pitch: luxury brands, jewelers, designers and executives use it to say premium before a word is spoken. If you want that smooth premium feel without the metal base, the Silk Laminated Business Cards carry the same soft lamination across a paper stock, and the Metallic Foil Business Cards sit right beside this one as a close metallic cousin.
What Size Should a Silk Aluminum Foil Card Be?
The right size comes down to how classic or how different you want the card to feel. The standard 2" x 3.5" card fits any wallet and cardholder and is where most orders start. The 1.5" x 3.5" slim card reads tall and modern, and the 2.5" x 2.5" square breaks the wallet mold for a logo, a handle and a QR code. Need something in between? Set a custom size up to 3" x 4". All 3 sizes, the aluminum stock and the full finishing list are grouped below exactly the way the live configurator presents them, so you know what you can change before you change it.
Here are a few easy ways to make an aluminum card pull its weight.
Let the metal do the talking
The 28pt Shiny Aluminum base already carries a chrome-like shine, so a calm, minimal layout reads loudest against it. Reserve your boldest element for a foil stamp or a raised spot UV accent and let the reflective surface fill the rest. For a heavier, foil-forward take on the same premium idea, the Fat Foil Business Cards build the shine into a thicker board.
Stack a second layer of shine
Foil stamping, embossing and raised spot UV each add a finish you can feel, and they play beautifully against a metal base: one element catches metallic light, another catches a wet-looking gloss, a third rises off the surface. Painted edges wrap a band of color around the rim to frame the whole card. Used together they turn a flat rectangle into an object.
Design it without a designer
You do not need a design background to make a metal card look sharp. Start from one of thousands of free, professionally built layouts in our business card design templates, then change the colors, copy and logo in the online editor in minutes. Keeping the design simple actually helps, since one bold element carries the whole card.

How Much Do Silk Aluminum Foil Business Cards Cost?
Silk aluminum foil business cards start at $276.63 per set of 250, and the per-card price keeps dropping across 4 quantity tiers up to 2,000, so a cheaper metal card really comes down to how big a run you order. A set of 500 runs $339.79 and 1,000 run $377.68, where the per-card cost has already fallen to about $0.38. So how many do you actually need? Drag the slider below to set your count and watch both the set total and the true per-card cost update live, and find the point where one more step up barely moves the budget.
What Finishes Can You Add?
Every card prints on one stock, a 28pt Shiny Aluminum silk-laminated on both sides, and from there the finishing is where it comes alive. Foil stamping presses metallic foil onto the front, the back or both sides for a second, brighter layer of shine. Embossing raises an element off the surface so you can feel it. Raised spot UV adds a clear, glossy accent on the front, the back or both. Edge painting lays a band of color around the rim of the card. Set your ink to 4/0 for full color on the front with a blank back, 4/1 for a black back, or 4/4 for full color on both sides, then send the job straight to production or ask for a free online proof so you see every finish before the press runs.
How Do Silk Aluminum Foil Cards Compare to the Rest of the Range?
An aluminum card is the premium pick when you want the card to signal quality on sight, but it is not your only move. If you are weighing a silk-laminated paper card, a full metallic foil or a thicker foil board, it helps to see the trade-off in plain numbers. The chart below lines up silk aluminum foil business cards against their closest siblings, the Silk Laminated Business Cards and the Metallic Foil Business Cards among them, so you can compare the starting price on each before you choose.

How Fast Can You Get Silk Aluminum Foil Business Cards?
Silk aluminum foil business cards print on a standard 10 business day production turnaround, because the metal stock, the silk lamination and any foil, embossing, spot UV or edge painting are separate finishing passes rather than a straight ink run. That extra time is where the shine gets built, and it is what keeps every finish sitting clean and sharp on the finished card. Plan the order around that window, choose a free online proof if you want to check the layout and finish placement first, and let 4OVER4's record carry the risk: 99.8% of orders arrive on time. You are not gambling on the date.

Each option shows its own starting price and links straight to its product page, so finding the right fit takes seconds.
