Event Badges: What's Best for My Event?

Event badges tell other people who you are, what you do and generally why you’re attending the event.

Not only that, but an event badge can also tell staff what ticket type your attendee has, where they need to be, what their agenda for the day is and much more. That’s why the design, style and overall feel of a delegate’s badge is so important.

Our event badges can also include a unique barcode for lead retrieval, so exhibitors can make the most of your event.

So, what exactly can we offer? And how do you know which style to pick?

Full Colour Expo Event Badges

The pièce de resistance in our event badge printing kit is our full colour expo badges.

These event badges are fully customisable with any colour, design or branding that you desire. Printing in less than 10 seconds, our full colour expo badges are a popular option for all types of events, from small conferences to exhibitions with thousands of attendees. These event badges are highly detailed and are 100% smudge, fade and water resistant.

The most impressive aspect of our full colour expo badges is that they are fully durable and are perfect for events that last two, three, four days or even longer. Our expo badges come in a variety of sizes and shapes and can be attached by any fitting desired (though lanyards are the most popular option). Although not recyclable, our full colour expo badges print instantly onto a blank badge, meaning no event badges are wasted during the check in and badging process.

Compostable Credit-Card Style Event Badges

With the environment on our minds, our compostable credit card badges are a sleek option with a high-end finish. A small, credit card design, printed in real time by our delegate services team when guests arrive at the venue. Simply print and attach to a lapel, dress or any other item of clothing.

The best part is that our credit card badges are compostable, and no lanyards are required for use. After the event has ended, guests can recycle or compost our event badges themselves or simply return them to us and we can do it. Despite being small in size, our credit card badges still have space for custom design and branding of your choice, and we can print delegate details on top.

Fully Recyclable Event badges

Like most industries, the events industry is working hard to re-vamp itself as an eco-friendly contender. Gone are the days of plastic forks, bottles and straws, and in its place are all things renewable, reusable and resourceful.

When it comes to badge design, our fully recyclable eco badges are perfect for shorter events, or for those with the environment on their mind. Easy to use and good for the planet, delegates can print our eco-friendly badges at our self-scan kiosks, attach it to a reusable lanyard, wear for the duration of the event and simply recycle when finished. Whilst these event badges may not have the same durability as others, they are 100% planet-positive, and deliver an identical, sleek appearance to our standard badges. What’s not to love?

Standard Expo Event Badges

Our standard expo badges are similar to our full colour expo badges. Durable and fully customisable, our standard expo badges clip straight onto a lanyard for delegate ease. Unlike our full colour expo badges, our standard expo badges are pre-printed prior to the event with specific designs for your branding.

Event Badges for Lead Retrieval and Session Scanning

Event badges can also include barcodes which are unique to each attendee. These barcodes can then be scanned using any of our in house lead retrieval solutions, such as mini handheld scanners, or our event app Event Scan.

Exhibitors can use our devices to retain their leads throughout the course of the event and can use their details to follow-up post event.
