Customized Logo Lanyards

Lanyards are one of the most versatile promotional products out there. When considering an order, its good to know the various applications and uses for customized lanyards in Canada.  

Custom Trade Show Lanyards

At the center of any trade show is the lanyard. Attendees always need a lanyard showing their ID Badge holder that allows the access to specific areas of the event.  The style and width of the lanyard depends on your needs. There are three ways to make a lanyard:

• polyester
• woven
• dye sublimated

If your trade show is larger, consider a full colour dye sublimated lanyard. The reason is there are not any restrictions as to what you can or can't put on the lanyard in terms of logos or number of colours. Most large events offer the ability for a sponsor to pay for the event lanyard and add multiple logos to the lanyard or event he badge id holder. 

University And College Lanyards

Lanyards started gaining popularity with the post secondary set in the late 90s. Students were attending conferences, music festivals and education lectures that offered lanyards with the students name on them. Naturally, the budget conscious students took the lanyard idea to the next level and started using them for keychains. Today it's not unusual to see dozens of students using lanyards on campus hanging out of pockets or backpacks. In some cases, ID lanyards are required to enter certain areas of campus such as laboratories or administration areas. 

Company ID Badge Holders

Many large corporations have security measures in place. The company policy dictates that workers sign in and out of work areas.  Employees may have a name tag in the badge holder or perhaps a colour coded ID tag that shows security personal the level of clearance each employee has.  Examples of industries that use ID badge holders with a logo lanyard are:

• airports
• software and IT
• engineering
• hospitals and health care
• movie sets

Lanyards For Non-Profit And Charity

Many organizations that serve the public find that lanyards are a low cost way to identify key volunteers and staff in the field.  Groups that do outreach to at-risk populations and seniors homes are an example.  Volunteers also appreciate receiving a logo lanyard as a gesture of appreciation. 

Music Festival Lanyards

 Custom printed lanyards are at the heart of any music festival or event. In the festival scene, lanyards are used to designate staff, volunteers and attendees to make security easier.  This lanyard for the Juno Awards below was worn by all backstage employees and contractors.
