Lanyards - How They Are Made
When making a lanyard there are several factors that need to be
considered. The first and probably most important of course is what type
of material you want your lanyard made from. Secondly, you need to
determine the printing technique you want to use to put your logo or
design on the material. Lastly, you will need to choose the fasteners
for your lanyard.
Making your Decisions
Since there are so many different types of material you can use for your
lanyards; cotton, polyester twill, nylon and cording material you will
need to do some research first to decide which is best for you. Things
to consider would be cost effectiveness with polyester being the least
expensive. You also want to consider the length of your lanyards.
Standard sizing is usually 36 inches (17.5" when put together), however
you can have custom sizing done if desired. A bead or other type of
hardware is usually attached so that you can adjust the length of your
lanyard when you are wearing it.
When choosing the printing method know that hot stamping is the least
expensive to choose from but your choices will be limited with color
selection. If you choose screen printing you will have much more say in
the design and layout. Screen printing offers a more professional and
legible print that will last for a long time. The most expensive, but
also the method that will produce the highest quality and longest
wearing print is dye sublimation. When using dye sublimation you will
receive a product that will be resistant to fading and cracking and
should not peel off over time.
The last selection you will have to make is the type of fasteners you
want on your lanyard. There are several different types of clips
available to hold the badge in place. There are snap hooks, retractable
reels and key ring types of fittings that you can choose from when
creating your custom lanyard.
