Lanyards aren’t just easy to use, but they’re also convenient and great for branding. If you’re new to ID badge lanyards, however, it can be overwhelming to figure out where to start.
Here, we’ve got everything you need to know when it comes to customising your company’s ID lanyards.
1. Figure Out Basic Details
The first thing to take into consideration is some basic details such as quantity as well as colour of the lanyards. When it comes to the colour, it’s always a good idea to make sure that it resonates closely with your company’s branding.
Some other things to consider:
– If you’re using it for an event, bright and vibrant colours may not be the best idea.
– Make sure that if you’re incorporating graphics, you’re choosing a colour that contrasts that of the graphic.
2. Decide On Your Material
Lanyards come in a wide range of materials for you to choose from. Some materials include polyester, bamboo, organic cotton and so much more. If you’re looking for something breathable, organic cotton or bamboo is usually an excellent choice.
During this stage, you’d also be choosing the width of your lanyard. This really depends on employee preference and what you’d like to go with.
3. Final Touches
Some other considerations for your lanyard include whether or not you’d like to incorporate a breakaway feature. A breakaway component is a safety feature that comes into effect when your lanyard is pulled or snared. When that happens, your lanyard will snap apart for protection purposes.
Lanyards are excellent for industrial settings where lanyards could accidentally wrap around an individual’s neck. Another feature to consider is the end fitting – the piece that attaches to the ID badge holder. There are many options to choose from whether that be swivel hook, snap hook and more.
4. Design
Once you’ve considered all of the above, it’s time to get to the fun part, the overall design! With the design, you need to consider the text (font), tagline, company name, or any other message you’d like to use. You can also choose the colour of the text, spacing, and if you want it to be single or double-sided.
If you have a logo, now is also a good time to upload it. Once you’ve got that settled, you’re pretty much all good to go when it comes to customising your company’s ID budget lanyards.
Getting Your Company’s ID Badge Lanyards Ready
As can be seen from the above, it isn’t too difficult to get your company’s ID badge lanyards ready. If you’re customising your lanyards, now would also be a good time to personalise your company’s ID badges as well. With that, you’ll have consistent branding for your company.
If you’d like, you can also take this opportunity to customise a few different designs for different occasions and events – whatever best suits your needs. You can create ID badge lanyards for trade shows, internal events, conferences and more.
