Campuses Nationwide Adopting Custom Lanyards

Custom lanyards are often found in modern businesses, where they're used to hold an employee identification badge. But customized lanyards are not just limited to the corporate world. They're also becoming common on college and even high school campuses nationwide.

Part of the reason is that custom lanyards are a convenient way to carry and display an I.D. card. The lanyard keeps the I.D. card visible without interfering with the wearer's ability to perform tasks. In many cases, the I.D. card also can be used as a key card or library card.

Lanyards don't have to be only safety and security items. Lanyards equipped with the right attachments can hold other items such as USB drives, keys or even water bottles.

Custom lanyards are readily available today in many college and university bookstores. Schools such as Goucher College, the University of Wisconsin and Washington University in St. Louis offer lanyards customized with their school names and logos.

Even high schools are getting into the lanyard act. With increased concern for school security, some school districts require all students and faculty to wear lanyards with I.D. badges on them. While generally accepted, not all students like the custom lanyards.

Lanyard materials vary in price and print styles, with one sure to be right for just about any use. The flat polyester custom lanyard is the most popular style, offering the best balance between price and performance. The high-quality polyester surface offers a clear, legible surface for silk screen printing a logo, image or message.

Tubular lanyards, made of tubular polyester similar to a shoelace, are the most economical choice. Like the flat polyester, the tubular lanyard can be silk screen printed with a logo or message.

The highest quality custom lanyards available are made of nylon. These offer the shiniest and smoothest surface for a clear, brilliant silk screened image. This is the ideal material for reproducing even the most intricate message or logo.

For campus use, a breakaway connector is a must for any custom lanyard. This simple safety feature pops free if the lanyard is caught on something or pulled by hand, allowing it to break free from the wearer's neck. The breakaway feature adds a necessary margin of safety to any style lanyard.
