If you’ve seen an employee badge with a smooth, clear, slightly raised surface, there’s a good chance you were looking at a domed name tag.
Domed name tags are popular with hotels, restaurants, retailers, stadiums, offices, and other businesses because they combine a polished appearance with the ability to create or update employee badges as needed.
How Does a Domed Name Tag Work?
A domed name tag uses a clear acrylic lens over the badge design, creating the raised or “domed” appearance that gives the name tag its name.
Florida Badges’ DIY domed name tag system includes three primary pieces:
- A metal name badge
- A clear acrylic dome lens
- A fastener for attaching the badge
The printed name tag design fits underneath the clear lens and snaps together with the metal backing.
The result is a finished badge with a clean, professional appearance.
Are Domed Name Tags Reusable?
One of the biggest advantages of this type of name tag is that it can be reusable. Instead of ordering an entirely new badge every time employee information changes, businesses can create a new insert with the employee’s name, title, company logo, or other information.
Florida Badges provides templates that allow businesses to create their own designs, print them, cut them to size, and place them beneath the clear lens. The badge can later be opened so the insert can be changed.
That makes domed badges especially convenient for workplaces where staff members change regularly.
Where Are Domed Name Tags Used?
Domed name tags can work well anywhere employees need an easy-to-read, professional identification badge.
They’re especially popular for:
- Hotels and resorts
- Restaurants
- Retail stores
- Stadiums and entertainment venues
- Conferences and events
- Offices
- Customer service teams
Florida Badges identifies its DIY dome kit as one of its most popular name tag options because of its affordability, ease of use, and professional appearance.
Can You Customize a Domed Name Tag?
Yes. The insert underneath the dome can include much more than an employee’s name. Depending on your design, it can feature your:
- Company logo
- Employee name
- Job title
- Brand colors
- Location
- Department
You can create the inserts yourself using a compatible template, which makes it easy to maintain a consistent design across your team while still personalizing each badge.
Florida Badges also offers domed badge components in multiple sizes and with different metal finishes and attachment options.
Domed Name Tags vs. Traditional Name Tags
Traditional custom name tags typically have the employee’s information permanently printed directly onto the badge. Domed name tags provide another option when you want the ability to change the information yourself.
That makes them particularly useful for growing companies, seasonal businesses, businesses with multiple locations, or organizations that need to produce new employee badges on demand.
Instead of waiting for a newly personalized badge each time your staff changes, you can update the insert and reuse the badge components.
