Printed Lanyards
Printed polyester lanyards cover the widest range of briefs in this category, screen printed in 15mm, 20mm, and 25mm widths with a logo in up to four spot colours. Sublimation lanyards use the same widths and take the print further: the ink is embedded into the polyester fibre under heat, which allows full colour artwork, gradients, and edge-to-edge coverage across the full strap width that never cracks, peels, or washes out. Printed bootlace lanyards in 10mm, 12mm, and 15mm offer a cord-style alternative suited to hospitality, retail, and corporate settings. All types come with a choice of fittings including swivel hooks, safety breakaway clips, and badge reel attachments.
A hotel group ordering lanyards for front-of-house staff across three properties chooses 15mm sublimation lanyards with the brand pattern running the full length of the strap. Every staff member at every property wears the exact same lanyard, and because the sublimation print is embedded in the fibre it stays sharp through daily laundering and repeated wearing without cracking or fading.
Screen printed polyester and bootlace lanyards carry the logo in up to four spot colours. Sublimation lanyards are printed with full colour across the entire strap width, with the ink embedded in the fibre for a permanent, fade-resistant result.
Common Questions
What printed lanyards suit a sports club or entertainment venue?
Sublimation lanyards suit sports clubs and entertainment venues because they carry full colour logos, team colours, and sponsor layouts across the strap. Screen printed polyester suits venues where a single bold logo is enough.
What lanyards suit a security or crowd control brief?
Security and crowd control operations order 20mm or 25mm screen printed polyester lanyards with the organisation name and role designation in high-contrast colours. The choice of breakaway clip versus a fixed fitting depends on the operation.
What width lanyard gives the best branding result?
A 25mm lanyard gives the largest print area for multi-element logos; a 20mm lanyard is the most common width and works for most logos. A 15mm lanyard suits simpler designs, and bootlace widths from 10mm to 15mm give a cord-style look.
What attachment fittings are available on printed lanyards?
Printed lanyards come with swivel hooks, lobster claw clips, safety breakaway clips, and badge reels, selected at the time of ordering. The safety breakaway clip is the most commonly specified option for healthcare, education, and settings where a snagged lanyard is a safety concern.
