Badges or badges. Types of badges

It is customary to wear badges at official events, in shops, cafes, hotels and offices. It's kind of like a temporary pass. The size of the badge depends on the status, level of the event and the situation.

The absence of a badge indicates that the person is not an employee of the company organizing the event or an invited guest.

What is a badge and why is it needed?

A badge is a small plastic card attached to clothing. It is not known for certain who the author of the idea is. It is only clear that the access badge:

  • greatly facilitates the work of security services. When guests and participants of an event do not have “identification marks,” the guards are forced to check and question everyone: who he is, why he came here, and so on;
  • frees employees and guests of the institution, gathered under one roof, from the need to remember each other’s names and positions.

IN lately badges on laces with fastenings have come into fashion - they do not spoil the appearance and prevent premature damage to the person involved’s clothes.

Purpose and size of the badge. Standard, digital and other types of badges

A standard badge can be vertical or horizontal.

The dimensions of the badge (the standard carrier of identification attributes can be of two sizes - 90x130 millimeters and 67x108 millimeters) strictly correspond to the situation: passes larger size are usually necessary during exhibitions or other public events.

Small identification marks, such as a pass or identification card, are used in educational institutions, conference rooms and at some events. Small badges are required to be worn by office employees and store workers.

Inner size a vertical badge - a carrier of information about an office employee - 60x86 millimeters, and an external one - 67x108 millimeters. Also, this attribute is ideal, for example, for a pass, the size of which is 54x86 millimeters.

Standard badges intended for carrying a plastic card have slightly different dimensions: their outer part is 94x79 millimeters, and the inner part is 86x60 millimeters.

Today, so-called smart badges - digital storage media - are also widely used. The size of the badge makes it look like a regular pendant.

If we talk about the opportunities that open up for digital badge holders, we cannot help but dwell on marketing issues.

Many trading companies use this electronic gadget for targeted marketing: an electronic badge allows you to quickly find potential partners and clients among the guests invited to a presentation or exhibition.

Continuing the conversation about vinyl badges, it is worth mentioning those that are designed to store official documents and passes, indispensable during exhibitions, seminars and conferences. The internal size of the badge is 90x135 millimeters, and the external size is 98x154 millimeters. These badges are made from thick, transparent vinyl. At the top of each badge there are round holes where a ribbon, chain or cord is attached.

For the same purposes, denser and more capacious media are used, such as, for example, a badge for documents in A6 format (90x140 millimeters). The inside size of such a badge is 105x150 millimeters, and the outside size is 113x173 millimeters.

Horizontal badge sizes

A standard horizontal badge, the outer size of which is 120x100 millimeters, has a size of 110x78 on the inside. A horizontal badge of this size (as well as a vertical one) can be seen on participants in public exhibitions - representatives of organizations providing various services.

It should also be noted that if the external size of the badge is 67x108 millimeters, then it internal quantities must be at least 60x86 millimeters.

How should a badge be designed?

There are no specific standards that must be met when issuing a badge. The only condition is that the badges of representatives of one company must be in the same style.

The identification document, in addition to the photograph of its owner, must indicate the surname and first name of the person involved, as well as the name of the company that he represents.

To create a badge yourself, just use the business card creation program offered by AMS Software.

Use the "Business Card Creation Wizard" and get a set ready-made templates, which can be edited to your liking by anyone, as long as he is satisfied with the size of the badge - 54x86 millimeters.

We advise you to treat discrepancies in dictionary recommendations calmly: you must remember that recently borrowed words in the process of mastering them in the language often experience fluctuations in spelling, therefore different dictionaries(and even in different editions of the same dictionary) you can find different spellings. What to do in such cases? Focus on the recommendations of dictionaries: a) more “fresh” ones; b) those who specialize in this problem, i.e., check the spelling using a spelling dictionary (and not an explanatory, spelling, etc.).

Usage

The main use of badges is to identify people who do not know each other, but, due to circumstances, must communicate. For example, conferences are always accompanied by the issuance of badges to participants. Employees of enterprises and cultural institutions who communicate with customers (salespeople, waiters, cashiers) can also wear badges.

When developing badges, their design should primarily focus on readability and recognition. Besides this, great attention is given to the style of badges, because appearance badges can be used to judge the level and status of the event in which they are used.

For each category of event participants, a design with its own distinctive elements is usually developed. This allows you to distinguish different categories of people at a glance, for example: participant, coach, press, technical staff, organizer, expert, etc.

Types of badges

  • cards with text
  • stickers
  • badges (badges)

Currently, the most common, due to their low cost and ease of use, are cards with text - paper or plastic rectangles with information printed on them. They usually contain the first and last name of the person being identified and the institution they represent. Sometimes such a badge contains some additional information(position, logo). Sometimes includes a photograph of the wearer.

Cards with text are usually inserted into a pocket or holder that has fastenings (clip, ribbon, pin, cord) that allow you to secure the badge to clothing or the wearer’s neck.

Badges of employees of organizations are sometimes combined with a pass, which in turn can be electronic. This badge/pass is worn on a cord around the neck so that it can be easily applied to
