School and university lanyards
For schools the brief is simple: safe to wear, easy to tell year groups and houses apart, tough enough for a term of daily use, and within budget.
What matters
What we focus on for schools and universities

Holders that last a term
Rigid holders protect swipe cards; soft PVC suits printed passes and visitor badges.
