Do Charity Lanyards Come With Printing and Attachment Options?

Most charity lanyard suppliers offer packages that include full-colour printing along with a selection of attachments such as swivel hooks, lobster clasps, split rings, and breakaway safety clips.

Printing techniques may include screen printing, heat transfer, or dye sublimation to ensure accurate reproduction of charity logos and campaign artwork. Bundles often include badge holders to simplify sign-in and event access.

Are Eco-Friendly Charity Lanyards Available?

Many suppliers provide charity lanyards made from recycled PET, bamboo fibre, or organic cotton.

These sustainable materials help environmentally focused charities maintain strong visual branding while reducing their carbon footprint. Eco-friendly options can still be printed with full-colour artwork and customised with all standard attachments.
