Why Choose Card Holder Lanyards?
Card holder lanyards are designed to make displaying ID cards, passes or badges simple and reliable. By combining a comfortable, wearable lanyard with a secure ID holder or wallet, they keep credentials clearly visible while preventing loss or damage. Staff, visitors and contractors can wear them all day for hands-free convenience while maintaining easy access for security checks, swipe readers or scanners.
They're ideal for offices, hospitals, schools, events, conferences, exhibitions and any setting where professional, clear identification is essential. Card holder lanyards also help maintain consistent branding and improve customer confidence by making staff easy to identify.
Wide Range of Styles and Colours
We offer a complete range of card holder lanyards to suit your needs. Choose from plain coloured lanyards for simple, cost-effective staff ID, pre-printed lanyards with roles such as Staff, Visitor or Contractor, or custom branded lanyards printed with your logo or message for a professional, consistent look. We also offer eco-friendly materials including recycled PET and bamboo for sustainable options.
Pair your chosen lanyard with our extensive selection of rigid plastic ID card holders available in a variety of colours, single or double card capacity, and portrait or landscape orientation. Flexible PVC wallets are perfect for conference badges or printed inserts. All are available in practical pack sizes with low minimum orders.
High-Quality Materials and Customisation
All of our lanyards are made using durable, comfortable materials suitable for daily wear. Custom options include screen printing for solid colour logos, full colour dye sublimation for photographic-quality designs, or woven styles for a textured, professional finish. We also offer a wide range of clips and attachments to suit any use case, from metal trigger clips to safety breaks for added security.
Our experienced team can help you choose the right combination of lanyard, holder and accessories to meet your organisation's branding and security needs, ensuring a consistent, professional result every time.
