About our badge reels

Badge reels are used by companies, schools and organisations everywhere. Pull the retractable cord to swipe your badge for clocking in or keyless entry, or attach keys and small tools.

They come in many shapes, colours and sizes, in durable plastic or metal. Logos, messages and names can be printed on the casing, from single-colour pad printing to full colour.

A badge reel keeps an ID card within easy reach without taking it off. The card pulls out on a retractable cord for a scanner or door reader, then winds neatly back so it doesn’t swing, snag or get lost. That makes reels a favourite with nurses, carers, warehouse teams and anyone who swipes in and out many times a day.

We offer two styles. Carabiner badge reels clip securely around belt loops, bag straps and lanyards, and come in translucent black, blue, red or white, or any Pantone colour on larger orders. Round badge reels have a classic belt clip and are available in black, blue, green, red and white. Both styles are offered plain or printed with your logo.

Printed badge reels turn an everyday tool into low-cost branding that staff use all day. Choose one or two print colours on the carabiner reel, or full-colour printing on the round reel for detailed logos and images. We send a free digital proof so you can approve the design before production.

Badge reels pair perfectly with our clear and rigid ID card holders: clip the holder to the reel and your team’s passes are ready to wear. Order them together with personalised lanyards and you can give staff the choice of wearing their ID on the neck or at the waist.
