Plastic, Metal or Leatherette

Engraved plastic badges have a two-layer plastic with the name and logo cut through to a contrasting color, and they are the durable, economical standard for retail and hospitality. Full-color plastic badges print the logo in its real colors with the name beneath, and they suit brands with a colorful logo. Metal badges in brushed silver, gold or black with a printed or engraved logo read as premium and are the choice for managers, banks, real estate and executive staff; framed metal badges add a raised rim, and many have a domed epoxy coating that protects the print for years of daily wear. Laser-engraved leatherette badges, framed or plain, are the newer executive look. Standard sizes are 1 by 3 and 1.5 by 3 inches, with larger and custom shapes available. Custom made name badges are produced one at a time from your list of names.

Custom Magnetic Name Badges

A magnetic fastener holds the badge without a hole in the garment and is the most requested back, though it is not advised for people with pacemakers. Magnetic badges come in the same plastic, metal and leatherette styles as pin badges, so a hotel can give the front desk a magnetic metal badge and housekeeping an engraved plastic one with the same logo. A pin back is the classic and lowest cost. A swivel clip or a lanyard slot suits event badges, and custom lanyards with a matching logo are on their own page. Reusable badges with a changeable paper insert and a clear window suit businesses with staff turnover. Whichever back you choose, order a few blank spares so a new hire has a badge on the first day.

Event Badges, Buttons and Ribbons

Laminated paper badges, photo ID badges and lanyard ID tags print full color with the attendee name and are ordered by the hundred for conferences. Buttons in 1.25 to 3 inches with a pin back carry a logo, a slogan or a campaign and cost cents each, which makes them the giveaway for political campaigns, school events and charity drives. Satin ribbons that hang from a badge mark speakers, sponsors and VIPs. Order event badges a size larger than you think, since a name read from across a room needs lettering at least half an inch tall. For the rest of a booth, see our custom banners and table covers.

Engraved, Printed or Screened

Engraving cuts the name and logo into a two-layer plastic or a metal plate and never wears off, which suits a one-color logo and daily wear. Full-color printing, including UV inkjet and sublimation, reproduces a logo exactly and is the choice for colorful brands and photo badges. Screen printing covers a one or two color logo on a run of poly badges. Send the logo and a spreadsheet of names and titles; we proof the layout once and apply it to every name.

Bulk Pricing

Name badges are priced by quantity tier, and the price per badge falls at each tier. Buttons and paper event badges sit at the bottom of the band, engraved and full-color plastic badges in the middle, and framed metal and leatherette badges at the top. Personalization with individual names is usually a small charge per badge. Items that are quoted rather than priced online show a quote form; send the quantity, the logo and the names and you will get a price and a free proof.
