Description
What is Spot UV on Business Cards?
Spot UV is a printing technique where a clear, high-gloss UV coating is applied to specific areas of a business card rather than the entire surface. On a matte laminated card, the UV coated areas catch the light and create a striking visual and tactile contrast against the flat surrounding surface. This makes spot UV name cards ideal for highlighting logos, brand marks, signatures, or design accents.
Unlike full-gloss lamination, spot UV finish business cards give you selective shine precisely where you want it. The precision of the UV coating process means the effect is clean, sharp, and professional — which is why spot UV business cards are consistently one of the most popular premium card options for business professionals, executives, and creative agencies across Malaysia.
Key Features of Spot UV Business Cards Printing at MV Print
High-Gloss UV Coating on Selected Areas
Spot UV applied only to designated parts of your design creates a sharp matte-vs-gloss contrast that makes logos and key text elements stand out visually and physically.
Premium 310gsm Matte Laminated Card Stock
Printed on 310gsm art card with full matte lamination on both sides. Thick, sturdy, and professional in hand — a step above standard card stock.
1 Sided or 2 Sided Spot UV
Choose spot UV on the front only for a classic premium finish, or on both sides for a fully elevated card that impresses front and back.
Optional Round Corner Finishing
Add a round corner finish to soften the edges of your spot UV name cards for a modern, refined look that further elevates the premium feel.
Full-Colour CMYK Printing
Vivid, accurate full-colour printing ensures your brand colours and design elements reproduce faithfully, enhancing contrast with the UV coated areas.
Fits Standard Wallets and Cardholders
Produced at the standard 89mm x 54mm size, your UV coated business cards slot perfectly into cardholders and wallets without modification.

Spot UV Finish Options: 1 Sided vs 2 Sided
MV Print offers two spot UV application options for your business cards printing:
| Option | Spot UV Coverage | Best For | Price Point |
|---|---|---|---|
| 1 Sided Spot UV | Front only | Logo or name highlight on front; clean plain back | Lower |
| 2 Sided Spot UV | Front and back | Premium cards with UV design elements on both sides | Higher |
| + Round Corner | Either option | Modern finishing for a softer, upscale card edge | Add-on |
For most professionals, 1 Sided Spot UV on the front — highlighting the logo and name — provides the strongest visual impact for the price. If your design has strong graphic elements on the reverse, 2 Sided Spot UV delivers a consistent premium feel throughout.
