Their are many styles, materials and sizes of badge holders available to hold your ID badges or access control cards.

For holding a standard ID badge with no electronics embedded in card a standard vinyl badge holder will work for you

There are two choices to consider when ordering.

Light Duty / Economy ID badge holders
Light duty badge holders are made of thinner materials to help keep the cost down and made for limited time use. Great for trade shows and meetings.

Premium ID badge holders

For access control badges or badges with Electronics your best options for a badge holder are as follows:

ID Card Dispensers
Are made of hard plastic to protect the electronics in today's ID/ Access badges. This style of badge holders have a closed front and back to protect badge from natures elements. These badge holders are becoming the best seller’s in our industry.
