Wear the Rainbow: A Colourful and Comfortable Lanyard for Your ID Cards

If you’re fed up with scratchy lanyards or flimsy clips, this one’s different. Our Rainbow Lanyard is made from recycled polyester, so it’s soft but strong, and wide enough to feel secure without being heavy. It measures 15mm wide and 44cm long – a size that works for most people without getting in the way. The bold rainbow design makes it easy to spot and a bit more fun to wear, especially if you’re using it every day at work or school.

It’s fitted with a sturdy metal lobster clip that holds your ID, pass, or keys in place, and includes a breakaway safety feature too. That means if the lanyard gets pulled or caught, it comes apart quickly to avoid injury. You just clip it back together and carry on.

This is the kind of lanyard that’s useful, looks good, and doesn’t cost the earth. Literally – it’s made from recycled material and built to last.

Bright, Safe and Recycled – Our Rainbow Lanyard Does It All

Not every lanyard can tick all the boxes, but this one comes close. It's strong, practical, eco-conscious and actually comfortable to wear. The recycled fabric is smooth to the touch, not itchy or rough. The breakaway clasp gives peace of mind in busy settings like schools, care homes, or warehouses. And the bright rainbow colours make it easier to spot your lanyard – useful if you’ve ever spent five minutes hunting through your bag or jacket pocket.

Whether you’re wearing it to carry ID, swipe a pass, or just keep track of your keys, it gets the job done without fuss.

Pair Your Rainbow Lanyard with the Right Holder and Clip

If you’re picking up a Rainbow Lanyard, you might want something to attach to it. We’ve got plenty of options for you.

Our landscape and portrait card holders are a good place to start. They’re both made from oxo-biodegradable plastic and built with a moulded ridge that helps prevent bending and cracking. Each one fits a standard credit card size—86mm by 54mm—and holds it securely without making it hard to remove.

Landscape holders come in 13 colours: black, pink, dark green, light green, dark blue, light blue, red, grey, white, yellow, orange, purple and transparent.
Portrait holders come in the same colours, except for transparent.

We also sell a range of card clips if you don’t need a holder or prefer to keep things simple. That includes crocodile clips with self-adhesive pads, ones with pins, plain crocodile clips, and lever clips. Everything is designed to work with our lanyards, including this rainbow one, so you can build the setup that works best for you.

And of course, if you ever need solid colour lanyards to match your holders or for specific roles, we sell those too—along with staff, visitor and volunteer versions. They're made from the same recycled polyester and use the same safety clip and lobster clasp.
