Red Staff Lanyard for ID Cards, Keys and Workplace Security

A lanyard is one of those items that just makes daily life smoother at work. It keeps ID cards or keys easy to access, shows clearly who’s on the team, and adds a small layer of security without fuss. Our red staff lanyard is designed with everyday use in mind. It’s reliable, comfortable, easy to wear all day, and made using recycled materials, so it's better for the environment too.

The bright red colour stands out, which is useful in busy places where people need to quickly recognise staff. The word "Staff" is printed in white along the full length of the lanyard in a bold, easy-to-read font. It’s clear from a distance, which helps in places like schools, hospitals, retail settings, offices, and public events. Clear identification can make all the difference when it comes to security, organisation, and helping people find the right person quickly.

Comfortable Staff Lanyards Made from Recycled Materials

This lanyard is made from soft but durable recycled polyester fabric. It’s strong enough to handle daily wear and tear, and the fabric sits comfortably around the neck without digging in. At around 15mm wide and 45cm long (from the back of the neck to the clip), it’s a practical size that keeps cards or keys at a good height – not too high, not too low. It doesn’t get in the way, even if you’re moving around a lot or working with your hands.

The material is easy to wipe clean, which is helpful in environments where hygiene matters or things get messy. Whether you’re in a classroom, warehouse, café, or office, it’s made to cope with everyday conditions. Because it’s made from recycled fabric, using this lanyard also helps reduce waste compared to single-use or virgin plastic alternatives. It’s a simple switch that supports more sustainable choices at work.

Secure Clip and Breakaway Feature for Safer Use

At the bottom of the lanyard, there’s a sturdy metal lobster clip. It opens and closes smoothly but holds on tightly once fastened. It’s suitable for plastic card holders, sets of keys, or anything else small you need to carry. You don’t need to worry about things falling off or slipping free. The metal clip is stronger than the usual plastic ones and adds to the overall durability of the lanyard.

A key safety feature is the breakaway clasp at the back of the neck. If the lanyard is pulled suddenly or catches on something, the clasp pops open. This reduces the risk of injury or strain. It’s particularly important in settings where lanyards might get caught in machinery, snagged on door handles, or pulled during physical work or activity. Once it’s released, the clasp can be clipped back together easily.

Our Versatile Staff Lanyard is Suitable for Schools, Offices, Retail and So Much More

Anywhere that team members need to carry cards or keys and be clearly identified, it does the job. It helps build a more organised environment where staff are easy to recognise and where small things – like fumbling for a card – don’t slow the day down.

If you’re ordering for a whole team, they help create a consistent, professional look. And because they’re made from recycled fabric, you’re also showing a bit of care for sustainability – without compromising on function or comfort.
