Carbon Business Cards

Clean the Sky - Positive Eco Trends & Breakthroughs

This New Business Card Design Uses Carbon Fiber to Help You Stand Out

— June 8, 2016 — Marketing
Jon Melvin is the creator behind this new business card design that uses carbon fiber. He made 'RC Fibers' as a way for professionals to stand out by giving them a card that would take their personal brand to the next level.

The sleek charcoal cards are cut precisely using an optimized pad printing process. Consumers are able to choose from a number of different color palettes, with red, green, white, yellow and blue able to be paired together. Although the cards are a little more pricey than most traditional business cards, RC Fibers' use of carbon means that each card will last exponentially longer.
