The project

The NFC Cards campaign presents a metal business card for sharing professional information with compatible devices. The piece combines laser-engraved personalisation with an integrated NFC component in an everyday object.

At Archicercle, we made these cards from two metal pieces bonded together. A cut-out in the rear piece houses the NFC component, keeping it sheltered within the assembly.

Personalisation includes engraving on both sides with a fibre laser. Before engraving, we carried out tests, adjusting power and speed to establish the result.

NFC allows data to be stored and transmitted by radio to compatible devices, such as smartphones or tablets. The card therefore brings together information engraved on metal and a digital way to share professional details.

The NFC housing is cut into the rear piece before the two metal pieces are bonded together.
