Badge Holders: Functional and Fun

Custom imprinted promotional ID badge holders offer a budget-friendly way to promote your company image. Badge holders come in a variety of styles to suit every need from identification at trade shows to employee identification in the workplace. Badge holders can be customized to showcase your company image and to reflect your company colors and industry.

Badge holder lanyards are one of the most sought after styles of badge holders. These come in just about any color you could want. Dye-sublimated lanyards can be custom imprinted in five or six colors on two sides. Standard woven lanyards can be printed in one color on two sides. Silkscreened lanyards can be printed in one or more colors on two sides; expect to pay more for each additional color. Regardless of the lanyard material, they all normally come with a choice of a metal split ring, bull dog clip or swivel hook. Be sure to verify the type of badge clip you're getting when you place your order so that it works with your company badges.

Many companies choose functional badge holders to accompany their lanyards. Retractable badge holders are popular with employees who must scan an ID in order to enter buildings or secured offices. These retractable badge holders come in a variety of shapes, including round, star, heart and square. The face of the retracting mechanism can be custom imprinted with your logo or company name in either one or more colors.

Choose specialty badge holder lanyards to use as giveaways or to aid employees who work in non-office environments. Some newer lanyards include a detachable led light. A reflective safety lanyard offers an extra measure of security on job sites. A cell phone lanyard provides storage for identification and cell phones. Other lanyards are designed to hold a passport, airline tickets or other vital travel documents.

Novelty badge holders are an added marketing tool at trade shows. Dress the personnel manning your booth in matching logo apparel and place their trade show IDs in your custom badge holders. You'll find badge holders in apple shapes, with pockets to hold business cards or order pads, and even deluxe badge holders that hold cell phone, pens and ID.

You could also use badge holders to quickly identify personnel and determine if someone is an employee, contractor or visitor -- just order color-coded badge holders. The top tab of the holder that connects to the badge clip can be many colors, including green, navy, yellow, red, purple, blue, black or orange.

Badge holders are often a basic necessity of doing business, but that doesn't mean you can't use them to promote your business. Take advantage of the many options available to keep your company name and logo visible whenever someone is wearing their quality custom badge holder.
