Tips To Creating Reusable Name Tags

By Karen Long


A badge is very important for businesses and events as it helps with identification. As a manager, you can adopt it as a marketing tool. It is the best way for workers to identify each other especially for industries with high turnover and seasonal businesses. However, printing of reusable name tags is not as easy as it sounds. Here are a number of considerations that you should think about when you want to print them.

You need to think about the information that must be on the tag. The information to be included ensures that the badge is complete. The details that can be added are the logo and name of an organization, full name of the individual and the position they hold. All these aspects ought to be part of every badge.

The next step is choosing a lanyard that can be adjusted. This is one of the most important decision you should make especially when they will be reused. A good characteristic of the lanyard is holding the tag in a position that will allow others to read what is displayed on. Its height ought to be adjusted to various sizes that can suit different kinds of people. Take enough time for you to effectively choose lanyards for the tags.

The font should be decided on. There are different font sizes you can use. Of importance is for you to pick one that is easily readable. A font that is quite small may give people problems when trying to read the details. It, therefore, should not be too small or too large for it to perfectly fit. In addition, the font should make it possible for the inclusion of long names.

Create badges that have color. It does not mean that you should opt for white and black ones just because they will be recycled. Even though it will be cheaper for you to create plain types, consider including color. The logo and name of the organization will be beautifully and conspicuously brought out with color. Talk to a designer you have appointed to help you choose different colors that complement colors in the sign.

The bar-code on the tag ought to be easily scanned through the available protectors. This is a vital aspect especially for the corporations that have many members of staff. Most people tend to select plastic to make recyclable badges as they can maintain their shape for long. Make sure to check if the bar-codes included scan through the plastic material. You can try them prior to giving them out.

Buy the badges in wholesale. This is a good way that you can create them at affordable rates. You ought to produce many of them so as to get low prices. You also should consider acquiring plastic holders and lanyards in bulk. This will ensure that you have everything you need for creating new badges for new workers.

When creating a tag, ensure that it is of the right size. It should be between three or four inches for it to be suitable. A small one will make it hard for all the details to be included while a big one will be uncomfortable for members of staff to wear it. Choose an appropriate size for it to carry out its purpose.
