It’s time to get creative and discover more about the exciting world of business lanyards! With their practical application and great customization potential, lanyards have the versatility to promote brand messages and provide practical ID display solutions. Whether you are creating giveaway swag for events or sleek and professional identification for employees, lanyards offer a great solution. So get ready to go hands-free for your event and say goodbye to rummaging around for ID cards in bags and pockets with the ultimate guide to branded lanyards from Dynamic Gift!

Understanding Printed Lanyards and Their Purpose

What is a lanyard? A lanyard is a length of cord or a strap that is worn around the neck or the wrist (for shorter wrist strap styles) to display items like ID badges and access cards. With their practical application and excellent style scope, these products have exploded onto the scene for marketing and promotional events, business accessories, and funky budget giveaway ideas. Adding your design to these products with custom print from a promotional supplier transforms these ID staples into powerful branding tools to add a valuable boost to business presence whenever they are worn.

How Lanyards with Custom Print Benefit Your Business

Aside from being a great way to keep ID on display, lanyards with custom print are a great asset for brand recognition and recall. Worn around the neck, they are easy to spot and often in sight throughout the working day or at busy expos. When paired with custom badge holders, you have a practical method of identifying employees and staff from visitors, great for larger events and venues. Showcasing that your brand is prepared right down to the fine details like custom ID solutions is also a great move for brand authority and customer trust — making lanyards a great product for visitors and business owners alike!

How to Easily Design Lanyards for Your Business

Now that we have discussed the great benefits creating lanyards for your brand can bring, it’s time to cover some inside tips and tricks to designing yours. From print customization to fitting styles, let’s look at designing ID badge lanyards for your next occasion!

  • Choosing Your Colour: Our custom printed lanyards are available in stock colours, custom dyed to match a specific Pantone, or as a full colour spectrum through dye sublimation — placing creativity and imagination in your hands. This brings an extra layer of customization, great for making a visual splash or customizing something to your brand’s theme.
  • Fitting Styles Available: Lanyards are a highly versatile item, and part of their versatility comes from the available fitting options. The most popular are the dog clip (or J-hook) style and the croc clip (or bulldog clip) option, but with over a dozen options, including whistles, retractable badge reels, and adjuster beads — you can find the right fitting style for your ID badge or small items with ease.
  • Designing Your Print: If you have chosen custom print over our plain, unprinted lanyards in stock, the next step is to consider your print colours. For screen printed lanyards, colours that contrast offer a bolder, more visible style rather than a subtle look. Do you have a full colour print design? Check out our dye sublimated lanyards!

Which Types of Lanyards Are Available?

So now that we have covered some awesome insider tips for getting the most out of your lanyards, it’s time to examine the types of lanyards that are available. With popularity comes a drive for more design options and materials. A closer focus on our planet has led to a surge in eco-friendly promotional products. Below are the most popular lanyards available from our business to yours!

Polyester Lanyards & Nylon Lanyards

Leading the way are our two most sought-after lanyard options, polyester and nylon! Either of these lanyards are a fantastic choice for custom printing, and are available in width options of 10mm, 15mm, 20mm, or 25mm. What is the difference between the two? Nylon Lanyards feature a high-lustre, almost shiny finish, great for a glossy appearance. The tighter material weave also allows for slightly more complex prints. Either option is great for screen printing (print on top of the lanyard), though we recommend our dye sublimated lanyards for designs with more than 3 colours!

Eco-Friendly Lanyards

Choosing custom eco-friendly lanyards is a great way to showcase your brand while staying committed to a greener future. These custom lanyards come in a variety of earth-positive materials like recycled PET (rPET) and bamboo fibre. Despite their breakaway from traditional materials, this style of lanyard remains a durable choice with the added bonus of being a great conversation starter or client connection point!

Plain Lanyards in Stock

Sometimes you are in a hurry, on a strict budget, or just need something simple for your event. Blank lanyards bring a practical solution to this trio of troubles and are a great choice for businesses in need of ID display solutions in Canada. Their straightforward design is ideal for events, conferences, or everyday office use. With no custom printing, they offer a simple and versatile option that's also budget friendly. Their straightforward design makes them suitable for a wide range of uses, ensuring you have the lanyards you need when you need them, at a very modest price point.

Don’t Forget Your Custom Custom ID Solutions Before You Go!

Are you forgetting something? These quiet promotional heroes of trade show event essentials and workplaces go together like cheese and crackers! ID badge holders are often paired with lanyards and custom wrist straps for hassle-free ID displays. With options including open face, closed face, and the popular plain in stock soft PVC ID holders (available in a rush!), you have what you need for business events, employees, and conference venues in one convenient order.
