Badge backers are a valuable accessory for anyone who uses an ID badge as a form of identification. These customizable backers use a badge clip to hang behind an employee ID badge. The primary purpose for badge backers is that the employee’s designation (title) is boldly and prominently displayed for clients and staff.
One of the main benefits of using badge backers is that they make it easier to identify the department or title of the badge wearer from a greater distance. For example, it’s not always easy to read the fine print on an ID badge. Badge backers feature larger text and/or imagery that clearly indicates the wearer’s role, credentials, or other important information. This can be especially useful in large organizations where there may be multiple people present with the same or similar titles. Another benefit of badge backers is they can be color-coded by department or other categories, making it easier to identify the roles and responsibilities of different individuals within an organization.
In addition to identifying the department or title of the badge wearer, badge backers can also be used to keep personnel informed about important information or updates. Many organizations that implement badge backers utilize the area behind the ID card to print a message or other information such as an emergency code card in the hospital environment.
IDentiphoto’s graphics department specializes in creating custom designs so an organization can print valuable information in this area such as but not limited to, emergency procedures, mission and vision statements, essential phone numbers, compliance requirements, and best practices. Including this information on a badge backer also eliminates the need for carrying other cards, which can save your organization money while streamlining your ordering process.
Badge backers are fully customizable and can be tailored to meet the specific needs and preferences of your organization. IDentiphoto also offers low minimum order quantities—as low as 6, 9, or 12 count—making it easy to order a small batch of custom-designed badge backers for a specific department or role.
Overall, badge backers are a simple but effective tool that can help to improve communication, safety, and security within organizations. Whether you work in a hospital, school, or any other organization, a badge backer is a valuable addition to your ID badge program.
IDentiphoto is a full-service dealer that can provide all the components you need to set up or maintain your ID program. If you are not familiar with the ID production process, you will need ID Personalization Software, an ID Badge Printer, Printer Ribbon, ID Cards to print on, and a Photo Capture Device if you plan to include pictures on your badges to get started.
