Custom Printed Lanyards for Events and Access

A lanyard is a long, narrow printed surface that hangs in a loop, and that geometry is the whole design problem. Your artwork is not printed once; it repeats along the length, it appears upside down on one side of the loop as it is worn, and the part nearest the badge is the part people actually see. Designing for a rectangle and hoping is how most disappointing lanyards happen.

The three decisions that matter are the repeat, the orientation and where the readable elements sit. A logo repeated at a sensible interval reads as deliberate; the same logo repeated too tightly reads as a pattern and too loosely reads as a mistake. Orientation determines whether your mark is upright on the visible side. And anything that must be read should sit high, near the neck, rather than down by the clip where it is hidden behind a badge.

What we confirm for your order rather than publish as a list is the width, the hardware and the attachment. Those depend on what the lanyard has to carry and how it is used, and we would rather ask than list options that may not apply to your job. Tell us what is hanging from it and roughly how many you need.
