Choosing a Badge Holder - Exploring the Many Different Types of ID Badge Holders

A work badge or ID is one of those things that is way too easy to misplace. Losing a work badge can be, at best, embarrassing and frustrating for the employee, and at worst, expensive for a company. But having a selection of badge holders on hand can make it easier for employees to hang on to their cards - and save you money at the same time. Here are several different types of badge holders that are currently available.

Earth-Friendly Holders

If you're concerned about the planet, check out earth-friendly badge holders. These holders contain no phthalates (toxic chemicals) so they're great if you need a versatile badge holder that's good for both you and the environment.

Reflective and Anti-Static Holders

Safety should always come first and with a reflective badge holder, you can be sure your badge will easily be seen, even in low-light conditions. Some badge holders even glow in the dark, so they'd be great at events such as concerts or parties. Meanwhile, anti-static badge holders help prevent the build-up of static electricity, so you don't zap yourself. (Or somebody else.) You can also get an anti-static card holder that's ideal for storing cards with a magnetic strip in them.

Shielded Smart Card Holders

This product is a patent pending shielded badge holder that's made to protect government-issued ID cards from being read by the wrong people. Government-issued smart cards have a chip in them that contains a lot of sensitive information, so it's important to make sure that the cards can't be accessed by unauthorized personnel or readers. However, it is also important that users can have their cards read by the right people when necessary. Using one of these shielded card holders all you need to do is squeeze the top of the holder and it will split open so the data can be read by a scanner.

Rigid Plastic Holders

These are good badge holders that are perfect for everyday use. They come in several different styles and colors, and are available in both horizontal and vertical formats. One of these types of holders has an extractor slide that makes it easy to slide a card in and out of the holder, so they're great for use with magnetic strip and chip cards. There's also a convertible card holder that can be used either horizontally or vertically, thanks to a clip on the back that swivels. Most rigid plastic badge holders will have a slot and chain holes so that you can use them with lanyards, badge reels or neck chains.

Proximity Badge Holders

This type of holder is ideal for people who use proximity cards at work to open doors, etc. Proximity cards are delicate and expensive, and proximity badge holders can help protect them. The card is even secured in the holder when a strap is laced through the loops in the top of the holder, so the card can't fall out and get lost. You can also purchase locking card holders that permanently lock a card into place.

Vinyl Holders

Like the rigid plastic holders, vinyl holders come in a variety of styles and are good for a bunch of different needs. Some of these holders have clips on the back so you can attach one to your clothing, while other can be used with lanyards or chains. There are even re-sealable card holders that help keep your card clean, and colored holders for when you want to make a statement. Vinyl badge-holders are often used for name tags at meetings, events, conferences and trade shows.

Now that you know what kinds of badge holders are available, it'll be easy to pick the right one for your company. So get some badge holders today and watch your employees never lose track of their ID cards again!
