Use the Butterfly Peel & Fold Badge for onsite printing. As both products use the same sizes they look very similar.
The Premier Badge is best suited for badges printed in advance only, as the thickness of the card is not supported by most printers.
An alternative option is to use a label printer (which you can hire from us) and apply the label to the Premier Badge.
Butterfly ‘Peel & Fold’ Badges
Ideal for printing onsite or at the office
Most office printers have limits on the card thickness they can handle, meaning they can’t handle card that’s thick enough to make a badge.
The Butterfly Peel & Fold Badge overcomes this. It’s essentially a big label that goes through a regular printer. You overprint the guest details, then peel it off and fold in half, which is a breeze as there’s a perforation down the middle. The resulting badge is robust enough for a few days of normal conference use.
Best for
- Onsite printing / personalisation
- Office-based printing
Sizes:
- Compact (112x98mm, landscape)
- A6 (105 x 148mm, portrait)
Spec:
- Thickness: ~380gsm when folded.
- Can be printed full-bleed (edge to edge)
The badge is made from an FSC certified wood pulp.
The backing paper can be recycled at specialist facilities.
- Ideal for onsite printing
- Compatible with most inkjet and laser printers
If you would like most of your badges personalised in advance, we suggest the Premier Badge for the pre-registered guests’ badges, and this product for any onsite prints. The two products look very similar. This also ensures you get the most eco-friendly product for the majority of your badges.
