Lanyards are used not just in office spaces but also in events, fairs and festivals. Their role has moved beyond simply utilitarian to being something which is more of a souvenir. So even after an event people will normally collect and keep their lanyard, especially if it is printed beautifully!

We are here to help you in picking and getting your Lanyards ready.

Lanyard material & Printing options

• Nylon: This material is used for Silk screen printing in spot colors. The process prints the design in solid colors (no color gradients/ transparency).

• Polyester: This material is used for Full color Heat Transfer printing also called sublimation printing (including color gradients/ transparency). Polyester is softer to feel compared to Nylon.

Finishing

Finishing refers to the method of attaching the lanyard material. Lanyards can be sewed, riveted or clamped. The standard finishing is clamping. However, clamping is not available if you choose to attach a buckle.

Accessories

The standard attachment for our Lanyards is the Metal Clip (with O-ring). You can also pick a Lobster hook or a Snap Hook instead.

Optional:
Buckle: You can choose to have a buckle or a swing buckle, if required. A buckle is helpful, for example, if you attach an access card to the lanyard. The buckle will allow you to easily detach the card for scanning and then reattach it.

Safety Clip: A Breakaway safety clip can be added to the Lanyard. This is meant for general safety, in case the lanyard gets stuck somewhere and is pulled sharply, the safety clip opens up releasing the lanyard and preventing any harm to the user.
