Custom magnetic name tags

While your employees’ name badges might not be the first thing you think of when you’re assessing the impact their uniforms can have on customer and partner experiences, they’re also not something you should overlook.

Additionally, even without considering variance in design, no two sets of name badges are alike. They vary in material composition, differ in the quality of their components, and can even be made with a variety of different fasteners, such as pin fasteners and magnets.

It’s easy enough to settle on the determination that a set of new, custom name badges will enhance the appearance of your staff, but a new fleet of high quality custom magnetic name tags for your employees can do more than that.

  1. Custom magnetic name tags build brand awareness

Full color, custom name tags sporting company logos, names, titles and more, especially those that are consistently styled across your organization, can significantly boost brand awareness. Whether your aim as a company is to create a lasting impression in the minds of your business partners or simply stand out from your competitors, custom styling in name badges can almost certainly be a valuable asset.

  1. Encourage accountability

Customized or not, tags and badges that communicate identity, responsibility, titles and names come as a part of an excellent, effective initiative to encourage accountability, especially among client-facing personnel. Wearing one’s own name on his or her uniform provides a reminder not only to own up to work, but to take pride in it.

  1. Craft a better, more memorable experience

When customized not only with names and titles, but also with badge talkers and branded lapel pins, custom magnetic name tags can also create a more memorable experience among your partners and customers. On any given day, a customer, a buyer or some other will experience countless interactions with staff, crews and customer service associates. Standing out from the rest of them may improve the possibility that your customers and partners will remember the experience your employees created the next time they need anything.

  1. Create a more sophisticated professional image

The better arranged, the better put together, your employees’ uniforms are, the more professional their appearance will be. By providing your employees with standardized, professional looking uniforms and modern, brand-aligned custom magnetic name badges, you’ll be helping to create a more formal, dignified, professional appearance by taking control and tying up loose ends.

  1. They’re easier to manipulate

Magnetic name badges, custom or otherwise, have a few benefits over name badges and tags that use pin fasteners. Pin fasteners, which may potentially use very minute moving parts, can be a bear to open, close and adjust. For any individuals that experience difficulties in fine motor-manipulation or with their eyesight, using small pin fasteners on the daily can be downright frustrating.

By contrast, magnetic name badges have no small moving parts and are much easier to affix to a uniform, and just as easy to subsequently adjust.

  1. They have no moving parts to fail or break

Pin fasteners, though they may vary in design according to the manufacturer, are generally without small parts that move. Without any small moving parts, they are not only easier to affix, remove and adjust, but there’s nothing to fail.

Latches, claps and springs can all experience fatigue over time and may be prone to failure or breakage. Even the pins themselves, when stressed, may bend or deform, making it difficult to continue to use the name tags. The magnetic fasteners that we use here at Imprint Plus are simply designed and have no parts that can fail, fatigue, bend or break. They’re the very image of reliability.

  1. Magnetic name tags may be better for expensive uniforms

Not all uniforms are made by the dozen for a dime, as the saying goes. Some uniforms are made from delicate or expensive materials that will not take kindly to pin fasteners. Pins have the potential to wear unsightly holes into uniforms or lapels and wear them out over time. An alternative to pin fasteners, then, is the use of a lanyard - but this will not produce the right image in all situations.

Our magnetic fasteners, which are made with powerful, rare earth magnets, are easy to affix to uniforms, and since they won’t puncture the fabric, they can be used over and over again without fear of causing damage to your employees’ uniforms.

The best part about all this is that you can get the best of both worlds in custom magnetic name tags that make use of both our magnetic fasteners and our name badge design services. To get started creating a fleet of custom name badges, simply use our design tools that we offer here on our website.
