Promotional Lanyards- Great Gifts to Secure Small Items

Promotional Lanyards are becoming quite popular among the business community and they are very effective advertising tools for conferences, tradeshows, trainings, and exhibitions. They provide a memorable and useful reminder of your company to your customers or business partners. One can define a lanyard as a length of wire, cloth, or rope that is designed to secure a small object. They are often used by people to secure small items such as an identification card, whistle, key, work badge, bottle opener, knife, compass, or eyeglasses. They can be worn around the arm, waist, neck, or wrist. When a lanyard is worn around the wrist, it is often referred to as a wristlet.

Promotional lanyards promote a sense of pride in your employees and they wear them around their neck to secure work cards and identification badges while on the job. Lanyards help identify company employees easily to each other. They promote confidence and unity in a team to serve the business mission to the highest expectations. A retractable badge reel is a popular accessory to the badge lanyards. It allows the access card or badge to be checked, scanned or displayed without the wearer having to remove the branded lanyard. The retractable badge reel is consisted of a durable wire or cord that attaches to the badge holder. The length of cord stretches for the identification card’s use and then retracts into the plastic reel for storage.  

Hospital staff members, military members, conference or seminar attendees, government workers, employees, or students commonly wear them. Promotional lanyards can be made of nylon, polyester, or cotton. They are offered in several basic types and shapes. One can choose a Tube Lanyard which is a polyester fabric tube. Another popular choice is a Rope Lanyard that contains a nylon, polyester or cotton rope. There are Breakaway Lanyards with a special connection that breaks open. It causes the lanyard to detach from a wearer’s neck if some choking force is applied. Thus, a Breakaway Lanyard is a very safe product to wear for anyone, even children. This type of lanyard costs a little more, but it makes a wonderful choice to be delivered among industrial and factory workers. Flat Lanyards contain flat pieces of cotton, bamboo, polyester, PET and more. The use of PET (recycled plastic) and bamboo in lanyards promote the emerging concept of eco-friendly materials to be used in the manufacturing of promotional items.  Nowadays, there is a popular trend about Leather Lanyards that are made of various types of leather.

Printed with your company name, logo, slogan, or symbol, a lanyard promotes your business to the one wearing it and many people around him or her. They provide an ample space for the placement of logos, brand names and business information. The high quality promotional lanyards come in a variety of colours and sizes.
