Lanyards have been a mainstay of the promotional products and corporate merchandise industries for many years now. It can even be argued that custom lanyards were one of the first prolific custom branded products in the industry. Custom lanyards not only had the benefit of being extremely useful, they are also very inexpensive which makes them the idea giveaway. Marketing departments often agonise about their budgets and how best to utilise them. At the end of the day it is imperative to ensure that every penny spent is accounted for and that it has the desired effect. Many products have come and gone but custom lanyards will alway be around and darling of the custom products market.
Not only can the material be customised but also the attachment. This means that your lanyards will be suitable for any number of applications. We never really think about them but it is only when you first ask about a lanyard that you start to see how many people actually rely on them for all sorts of applications. Whether is is carrying identification, a water bottle, a set up keys, a security pass or any number of things, there are a million things to can use them for. So branding some and giving them out to your clients or staff is a no brainer.
Printed lanyards are an easy way of getting your brand out to a wider audience. With a large range of uses, from events and functions through to day to day staff uses, a promotional lanyard will promote your business to an audience you may not typically reach through your normal marketing activities.
When purchasing promotional lanyards, it is important to think about the image your brand is putting across – a good quality printed lanyard will look good and bring a professional style to your business, while a lower quality lanyard will make it seem like you aren’t worried about your brand’s image.

Poly – Satin – The poly/satin blend is a great option for those seeking a sturdy yet premium looking option. The polyester makes for a sturdy base which is sure to withstand even the harshest environments. The satin on the other hand adds an element of elegance.
Sublimation – Sublimation is more a printing style then a material but it is still worth a mention. Sublimation is important where there is a gradient in the logo. With gradient logos screen printing is not an option as it is only for spot colours. With sublimation the material used is satin.
Nylon – This option is for where a truly sturdy option is needed. Even though polyester is tough, Nylon is the strongest option when it comes to material. It also printed well where spot colours is needed.
Woven – Again woven is not a material per se but a branding style. With this option the logo is woven into the lanyard. It is a sturdy option but generally limited to 2 colour logos. This is great where you want a permanent branding option that can’t rub off over time.
Recycled PET – In this environmentally conscious world we live in the PET option is a great material solutions. People are increasingly concerned above sustainability. With PET the customer will know they are getting a product which is a substitute for virgin materials.
While there are many other options the above mentioned materials are the most commonly used.

Clips – Attachment such as the alligator clip, swivel clip, dog clip and j-hook are imperative as they allow you to attach something to your lanyard.
Breakaway Clips – These have become standard especially with professions where there is a risk of someone grabbing a lanyard. So for example nurses are now required to have a breakaway clip to guard again choking etc.
PVC Card Holder – Allow people to carry a pass or identification. More or less any form of security pass or ID can be carried in the card holder.
Retractable Card Holder – This couples well with the PVC card holder or a set of keys giving extra reach. It then conveniently retracts when not in use.
Bottle Holder – Allow for a bottle to be carry. Is particularly useful for people in a active roll who need to have the ability to stay hydrated.
