Necklaces

An ID card necklace is a steel or plastic neck chain that holds a hole-punched card or badge holder around the neck. Every option here comes in a pack of 100. Staff and visitors who need a card visible all day often prefer one to a lanyard, whether that is on reception, across a hospital site or between offices.

The steel chain necklace comes in a 30 inch (76cm) length. A second steel chain runs longer again, so ask us to confirm its exact length before you order. Both steel chains are nickel-free, which counts where a chain sits against the skin all shift. The plastic necklace runs to 38 inch (96cm), a longer drop that sits lower on the chest. It comes in red, blue, black and white.

A 38 inch necklace keeps the card clear of a collar and easier to swipe. A 30 inch chain holds it higher for quick visual checks at a desk or a gate. Colour does a job too, separating departments from visitors at a glance.

Steel suits environments where the necklace gets daily handling and has to last, such as healthcare and manufacturing. The plastic necklace is the one to pick where a non-metal option is needed. Each necklace is made for a hole-punched card or a badge holder, so it works alongside the badge accessories you already use. If you are not sure which length works best with your card holders, the team at Plastic ID can confirm the right fit before you order.
