First metal card manufacturer in Europe 

As well as producing standard PVC financial cards for many of the leading FinTech and financial organisations, Thames Technology is proud to have opened the first metal payment card production facility in Europe at its headquarters in Rayleigh, Essex, UK. 

The Fusion metal card is the first metal card with a dual interface to be manufactured at the production facility. The luxurious card is made from a pure stainless-steel core with an ultra-thin PVC layer on front and back.

Metal payment cards are particularly suited for debit, credit and prepaid financial cards, giving an air of exclusivity both in look and feel, as well as offering a reassuringly weighty durability. They exude elegance, prestige and style, making them a highly sought after option for card users.

The sustainable choice

Thames Technology is dedicated to looking after the environment and reducing the impact their materials and processes have on our planet's ecosystem.

That's why they offer a broad range of environmentally friendly card materials for both retail and financial use. Selected ranges for financial card use include recycled and BIO PVC as well as wooden cards and combine superior quality with proven environmental credentials.
