Name Badges International

Personalised staff name badges made in Lincolnshire

Name Badges International produces personalised name badges for staff and customer-facing roles, working from Insignia House in Spilsby, Lincolnshire. The company describes itself as having 120 employees and 40 years of experience in staff name badge printing, and positions its output around the first impression a badge makes on a customer.

Orders can be placed through an online design tool, and the company states that there is no minimum order, no setup fee and no design fee. Standard orders are despatched in 3-5 working days, while a FastTrack option is despatched in 3 working days. The site also offers an instant quote and a sample pack for customers who want to see the physical product first.

Plastic badge ranges

The plastic line is the broadest part of the catalogue, with several finishes and formats:

• Prestige: described as the most popular range, available in five sizes and two border colours.
• Classic: a low-cost professional badge without the domed resin coating.
• Standard: full-colour print on a white badge in a single size.
• Borderless: full-colour print to the edge, with white or black edge and multiple sizes.
• Circle: round, borderless badges with full-colour print and domed resin coating.
• Shaped: oval and oval-top alternatives to the rectangle.

Metal badges and reusable window badges

The metal range includes Prestige Premium badges with a silver or gold border in five sizes, Metal Classic badges without the domed resin coating, and Metal Reusable window badges with a brushed silver or brushed gold background. Reusable badges are also offered in plastic and metal versions: they come in three window sizes, and users print their own names and slide them in, so no specific printer or software is required. Each order includes a suitable number of reusable card inserts at no charge.

Eco-friendly and wooden options

For companies promoting environmental credentials, the catalogue lists metal and wood alternatives. The wooden badges are made from oak and come in printed or laser-engraved versions, both available in multiple sizes.

Chalkboard badges for hospitality

A distinctive line is the reusable chalkboard badge, aimed at pubs, restaurants, cafes and similar venues. Names are handwritten and erased, and the company offers a Liquid Chalk Pen and Microfibre Cloth Set to accompany the badges.

Lapel pins, school badges and the #hellomynameis campaign

Beyond name badges, the company produces custom-printed lapel pin badges with a scratch-proof resin coating and a butterfly clutch fitting, and custom school badges with a scratch-proof resin coating and a pin fitting with a safety catch. It also identifies itself as the original and official supplier to the #hellomynameis campaign and states that it donates to the campaign for every #hellomynameis badge sold. NHS name badges are offered as a separate line.

Materials, fittings and finish

Badges are printed on high-resolution machinery and finished with a hard-wearing, scratch-proof polyurethane coating. Customers choose between pin, clip or magnetic fittings depending on their workwear. The company also publishes technical guidelines and template instructions for graphic designers, and sells badge fixings as stock products.

Delivery and trading terms

Prices are quoted in pounds sterling and exclude VAT unless stated otherwise. The company reserves the right to change prices without notice and trades only on its own terms and conditions, with order placement treated as acceptance. Delivery dates are given as estimates rather than guarantees, and the company states it is not responsible for costs or liabilities arising from missed deadlines, including those caused by factors beyond its control.
