Collection: Wooden Name Badges

Our wooden name badges are used by businesses, hotels, schools, charities, retailers and event organisers across the UK as a sustainable, eco-friendly alternative to plastic staff badges — laser-engraved to order from oak veneer MDF or FSC-certified Moso bamboo (certificate RINA-COC-001256). Because the personalisation is engraved directly into the wood rather than printed on a surface, it cannot fade, peel or wash off — making these badges significantly more durable than their plastic equivalents.

Not sure which badge is right for you? Our complete name badge guide covers materials, sizes, fastenings and how to order for a team. Or get in touch and we'll help.

Choose from a range of sizes, shapes and fastening options — pin, magnetic, pin-and-clip or lanyard. All designs use our free templated design service, so there's no artwork experience needed: just provide your name, logo and any text at checkout and we handle the rest.

Frequently asked questions

Can I add my company logo to the badges?
Yes — all badges can be engraved with your logo, company name, staff name and job title. Simply upload or describe your logo at checkout and we'll prepare a templated design for you.

What fastening options are available?
We offer pin only, magnetic, pin-and-clip, and lanyard attachment. Magnetic is the most popular for retail and hospitality as it doesn't damage clothing.

Are the badges suitable for outdoor use?
Oak veneer badges are recommended for indoor use only. Bamboo badges are more moisture-resistant and better suited to environments where badges may get damp.

How long does production take?
Current dispatch times are shown at checkout. For urgent orders, contact us before ordering and we'll do our best to help.

What makes these badges more eco-friendly than plastic?
Our badges are made from oak veneer MDF or FSC-certified Moso bamboo (certificate RINA-COC-001256) — both natural materials with a significantly lower environmental impact than virgin plastic. The laser engraving process uses no inks or chemical coatings, and we use paper-based packaging throughout with no plastic.

Are wooden name badges a genuinely sustainable choice?
Yes — oak veneer MDF uses wood fibre that would otherwise go to waste, and our bamboo is FSC-certified, meaning it comes from responsibly managed sources. Unlike plastic badges, which are typically single-use and non-recyclable, our wooden badges are built to last for years of daily wear. Organisations replacing plastic staff badges with wooden ones can use this as a verifiable, material change in their sustainability reporting.
