Our Custom Lanyard Range
We carry a full range of lanyard materials and styles to suit every budget, use case, and branding requirement. Below are our most popular options — all available with your logo, company name, or event design printed on them.
Polyester Lanyards — Most Popular
Polyester is our best-selling lanyard material and the go-to choice for most lanyard printing projects in Malaysia. It offers a smooth, flat surface that produces crisp, vibrant prints — particularly with dye sublimation, which allows full-colour, edge-to-edge designs. Polyester lanyards are lightweight, comfortable for all-day wear, and highly durable even after repeated washing.
- Available widths: 10mm, 15mm, 20mm, 25mm
- Best for: Corporate events, conferences, staff ID, exhibitions
- Printing methods: Silkscreen, dye sublimation, heat transfer
- Starting from: RM3.80/pc (silkscreen, 300+ pcs)
Nylon Lanyards — Premium Option
Nylon lanyards offer a noticeably smoother, shinier finish compared to polyester, making them the preferred choice when a more premium look is required. The material is exceptionally strong and abrasion-resistant, ideal for daily use in offices and hospitals. If your customised lanyard project calls for an executive feel, nylon is the right pick.
- Available widths: 10mm, 15mm, 20mm
- Best for: Executive branding, daily office wear, premium events
- Printing methods: Silkscreen, heat transfer
- Starting from: RM5.20/pc (silkscreen, 300+ pcs)
Woven Lanyards — Maximum Durability
Woven lanyards feature your logo or text stitched directly into the fabric, creating a textured, high-end finish that will never crack, peel, or fade. Because the design is part of the material itself, woven lanyards are the most durable option available — ideal for organisations that issue long-term staff credentials or school IDs worn daily for years.
- Available widths: 10mm, 15mm, 20mm
- Best for: Long-term staff ID, schools, government, healthcare
- Minimum order: 300 pcs
- Starting from: RM6.00/pc (300+ pcs)
Eco-Friendly & Recycled Lanyards
For organisations with ESG commitments or sustainability goals, we offer lanyards made from recycled PET bottles and bamboo fibre. These eco-friendly options deliver the same print quality and durability as standard polyester while reducing environmental impact — a detail your stakeholders and event attendees will notice and appreciate.
- Materials: Recycled PET polyester, bamboo fibre
- Best for: ESG-conscious companies, green events, CSR initiatives
- Printing methods: Dye sublimation, silkscreen
- Starting from: RM5.80/pc (300+ pcs)
Lanyard Printing Methods Compared
Choosing the right printing method is one of the most important decisions when ordering custom printed lanyards. Each technique has distinct strengths depending on your logo complexity, colour count, budget, and quantity. Here's a side-by-side comparison to help you decide:
| Printing Method | Best For | Max Colours | Durability | Min Qty | Price Range |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Silkscreen | Simple logos, text, 1-4 colour designs | 4 colours | ★★★★☆ | 300 pcs | RM3.20 – RM3.80 |
| Dye Sublimation | Full-colour, gradients, detailed artwork | Unlimited | ★★★★★ | 300 pcs | RM3.80 – RM4.80 |
| Heat Transfer | Photo-quality prints, complex designs | Unlimited | ★★★☆☆ | 300 pcs | RM4.20 – RM5.50 |
| Woven | Long-term use, won't crack or fade | 8 colours | ★★★★★ | 300 pcs | RM5.00 – RM6.00 |
Our recommendation: For most custom lanyard projects in Malaysia, dye sublimation offers the best balance of colour vibrancy, durability, and value — especially when your logo uses gradients or more than two colours. For simple single-colour logos on a budget, silkscreen is the most economical route.
Lanyard Accessories & Attachments
Every customised lanyard order includes your choice of attachment hardware at no extra cost. Selecting the right clip or buckle ensures your lanyard is functional for its intended use:
| Attachment | Best For | Notes |
|---|---|---|
| Dog Clip (Standard) | ID card holders, badge holders | Most common; included by default |
| Lobster Clip | Heavier badges, USB drives, keys | Stronger grip; spring-loaded clasp |
| Safety Breakaway Buckle | Schools, hospitals, factories | Releases under pressure; prevents choking hazard |
| Badge Reel (Retractable) | Access card scanning, office entry | Extends to tap card without removing lanyard |
| Phone Loop | Mobile phones, small devices | Compact loop connector for phone cases |
| Card Holder Add-on | Bundled ID card holder + lanyard | Transparent PVC holder in various sizes |

Frequently Asked Questions About Custom Lanyards
Can custom lanyards be printed with a full-colour logo?
Yes. Dye sublimation printing allows full-colour, edge-to-edge printing on polyester lanyards — including gradients, photographs, and complex artwork with unlimited colours. For simpler designs with 1–4 solid colours, silkscreen printing is a more economical option. Both methods produce sharp, durable results on our custom printed lanyards.
What lanyard material is best for daily office use?
For daily office wear, polyester is the most popular choice due to its comfort, durability, and excellent print quality. If you want a more premium feel for executive staff, nylon offers a shinier, smoother finish. For maximum longevity (e.g., staff IDs worn for 2+ years), woven lanyards are the most durable since the design never cracks or fades.
What is the difference between sublimation and silkscreen lanyard printing?
Sublimation uses heat to embed dye directly into polyester fibres, producing vivid, permanent full-colour prints that won't crack or peel — ideal for complex logos and photography. Silkscreen applies ink onto the surface of the lanyard one colour at a time, making it best for bold, simple designs with up to 4 colours. Silkscreen is typically 15–20% cheaper per unit for basic designs.
What is the minimum order quantity for custom lanyards?
Our minimum order for all lanyard types starts at 300 pieces per design. We offer attractive bulk discounts starting from 500 pieces, with the best per-unit pricing at 1,000+ pieces. This MOQ ensures optimal production efficiency and the best possible pricing for your organisation.
How much does custom lanyard printing cost in Malaysia?
Lanyard printing prices in Malaysia start from approximately RM3.20 per piece for standard polyester lanyards with silkscreen printing (at quantities of 1,000+). At our minimum order of 300 pieces, polyester silkscreen lanyards start from RM3.80 per piece. For premium nylon or sublimation-printed lanyards, expect RM4.20–RM6.00 per piece depending on quantity. We provide obligation-free quotations within 24 hours.
Do you deliver custom lanyards nationwide across Malaysia?
Yes. We deliver custom printed lanyards throughout Peninsular Malaysia and East Malaysia. Whether your office is in Kuala Lumpur, Johor Bahru, Penang, Kota Kinabalu, or Kuching, we ship directly to your doorstep. Delivery within Peninsular Malaysia typically takes 2–4 business days after production is completed.
What file format should my logo be in for lanyard printing?
We recommend vector files (Adobe Illustrator .ai or .PDF) for the sharpest results, as they can be scaled to any size without losing quality. High-resolution PNG files (minimum 300 DPI) are also acceptable, especially for sublimation printing. Our design team provides free artwork assistance if your file needs adjustments — just send us what you have.
Do you offer rush or express lanyard printing?
Yes. Standard production is 7–12 working days after artwork approval, but we offer express production in 3–5 working days for urgent orders. Express availability depends on the lanyard type and current production capacity. Contact us as early as possible for rush orders so we can confirm availability and ensure your deadline is met.
Can I print on both sides of the lanyard?
Yes — double-sided printing is available with dye sublimation on polyester lanyards. You can have the same design on both sides (so your logo is always visible regardless of how the lanyard sits) or two different designs (e.g., company logo on one side, event hashtag on the other). This is particularly popular for conference and exhibition branded lanyards.
What lanyard width should I choose?
The two most popular widths are 15mm and 20mm. Choose 15mm if your logo is simple text or a small icon — it's more lightweight and comfortable. Choose 20mm if your design has fine details, multiple elements, or you want maximum brand visibility. For phone lanyards or minimalist designs, 10mm is a sleek, slim option.
Are breakaway safety lanyards available?
Yes. We offer safety breakaway buckles that release automatically under pressure, preventing injury if the lanyard gets caught on equipment or doors. Breakaway lanyards are recommended — and often required — in schools, hospitals, laboratories, and manufacturing facilities. The safety buckle can be added to any lanyard material and style at no additional cost.
Do you provide a free artwork mock-up before production?
Yes. Every lanyard customisation order includes a complimentary digital mock-up showing exactly how your finished lanyard will look — including logo placement, colours, and attachment hardware. We offer unlimited revisions on the mock-up at no charge. Production only begins after you give final approval.
