Alternative: stainless steel snap lock pin
Admittedly, a brooch pin can leave behind tiny holes or make a small tear in the fabric, and occasionally you may feel a slight pin prick. Nevertheless, our high-quality stainless steel snap lock pin has a well-deserved place among our fastening options.
Three advantages of our pin fastening- Pin fastening is the most cost-effective and stays securely attached to your clothing during any kind of movement.
- Combined with a clip, the pin will not damage your clothing with frequent use and you can choose whichever of the fastening styles is more practical for the occasion.
- If any of your colleagues or patients has a pacemaker fitted, a magnet system should not be used, so the pin is a safe choice.
Alternative: the combiclip
Wherever you wear it (on a pocket or lapel, for example), our clip-on/clip-off combiclips are highly practical and are perfect for less formal business use. You simply put it in position, press to clip it on – and later on when you remove it, there’s absolutely no damage to clothing.
Three advantages of the clip fastening- A suspended badge makes for a more casual look and conveys a lighter, less serious note.
- Clips can be individually combined with lanyards and other clip-style fastenings for practical purposes, such as securing staff ID badges.
- For those with an allergy to metal, clips are also available in a metal-free version.
Alternative: the lanyard
Insert a VIP pass, attach the strap and your custom badge is now ready to wear around your neck, irrespective of your clothing. Lanyards are a practical, tried-and-tested option and can be designed to look stylish and attractive with strong branding.
Three advantages of using a lanyard- Hassle-free and ideal for when events move between indoor and outdoor locations because they are always visible and can even be worn over a coat.
- A lanyard is an advertising tool and a promotional giveaway all in one.
- It can be used time and time again, long after the plastic wallet has worn out.
