Custom Printed Lanyards
Develop custom lanyards for conferences, staff ID programmes and branded merchandise collections. Choose a repeat pattern, suitable printing or weaving process, and the attachments needed for the way the lanyard will be used.
Bulk minimum quantities, pricing, tooling, production and shipping schedules are confirmed in your quotation. Share your destination country and required arrival date.
Choose the right material and process
Dye-sublimation printing
A starting point for multicolour illustrations, gradients and repeating brand patterns on compatible fabric.
Screen printing
Useful for clear logos and a limited colour palette. Discuss line detail and contrast against the chosen strap colour.
Jacquard weaving and hardware
Woven artwork needs simplified detail. Confirm the hook, card holder, breakaway connector and assembly requirements in the quotation.
Compare processes before choosing a finish
Start with the artwork and the result you want to see or feel. The comparison below helps you prepare a specification for review.
| Process | Appearance or feel | Useful starting point | Confirm on the sample |
|---|---|---|---|
| Dye-sublimation printing | Multicolour artwork can repeat along compatible fabric. | Illustrated patterns and designs with gradients. | Repeat spacing, orientation, colour and reverse-side requirements. |
| Screen printing | A defined logo or graphic is printed onto the strap. | Clear brand marks with a limited colour palette. | Line detail, logo contrast and the intended number of print colours. |
| Jacquard weaving | The design is formed with threads rather than a printed image. | Simplified logos and repeat patterns. | Legibility, thread colours and front/back appearance. |
Key specifications for your quotation
| Decision | Information to share |
|---|---|
| Strap specification | Width, finished length, material preference, colour and quantity. |

Prepare your artwork
Supply vector logos where possible and show the repeat spacing and intended strap colour. Mark artwork orientation and whether one or both sides require decoration. Keep small lettering readable at the intended strap width.
Build a coordinated product collection
Pair a lanyard with an ID holder, enamel pin and notebook for an event or employee welcome kit. A shared colour palette helps different materials work together.
