What is the Matte Rectangle Plastic Name Badge?
Catalogued as UN4001, this name badge sits in the part of the range that gets re-ordered rather than tried once. It measures 3" x 1 1/2".
Plastic is the value option: light, unbreakable and the lowest cost per impression in most giveaway programs.
Badges are the most-read piece of branded material an organization produces. Pad printing and screen printing are standard; some substrates accept UV printing. The two together are why this item re-orders.
At this level the item is buying attention rather than gratitude. Order enough to be generous with it, because restraint here saves very little and costs reach. Concretely: $3.70 each at 1-11, $2.29 at 500+.

Decoration options
The decoration method is chosen to match the substrate, which is why the mark is permanent rather than printed on top of it. Standard imprint area on this item is 2 in x 2 in.
Pad Printing
A silicone pad lifts ink from an etched plate and transfers it to the product. Clean printing on curved and irregular surfaces.
Best for
Pens, plastics and small compound-curved items.
Color
Spot colors.
Screen Printing
Ink is pushed through a mesh stencil, one screen per color. Dense, opaque color that holds up to washing and handling.
Best for
Bags, apparel and high-volume runs.
Color
Spot colors, typically up to 4.
UV Printing
UV-cured ink is jetted directly onto the product and cured instantly under ultraviolet light. Full-color, photographic-quality artwork with hard edges and no dot gain.
Best for
Multi-color logos, gradients, photographs and exact brand-color matching.
Color
Full color, including white ink on dark substrates.
Artwork requirements
- Raster artwork should be at least 300 dpi at the finished imprint size, on a transparent or white background.
- Send vector if you have it. A .ai, .eps, .pdf or .svg scales to any imprint without softening.
- Artwork we redraw stays on file under your item number, so the next order runs from the same corrected file.
- Type should be converted to curves or outlines, otherwise a missing font silently substitutes on our end.
- Name the PMS values for anything that has to match a brand standard; screen color is not a reliable reference.

Common uses
Staff identificationA natural fit for staff identification, which is one of the settings this name badge was specified for.
ConferencesBuilt for conferences. That is the use case the format was designed around, not one retrofitted to it.
Hospitality and retail teamsWorks well for hospitality and retail teams, where the name badge format does what a printed handout cannot.
Sponsorship and partner thanksGiven to the people who funded or enabled the work, in a form they can keep visible.
Recruiting and onboardingIncluded in offer packs and first-day kits, where the object is doing culture work from the very first hour.
Renewal and retention giftsTimed to the contract date rather than the calendar, which is when the recipient is actually paying attention.
Booth and trade show handoutsThe item that gives someone a reason to stop walking, and a reason to remember which booth it came from.
Where this works best
The same item lands differently depending on who gets it and why. Here is how this one performs across the programs it sells into most.
1
Franchise & Multi-Location Brands
The hard problem in multi-location branding is consistency, not creativity. Local operators will source their own if the approved path is slower or costlier than the alternative. The way to hold brand consistency is to make the compliant option the easy one, with stocked items and fixed pricing. Cheap enough to over-order slightly, which is the right call for a table.
2
Government, Military & First Responders
This segment is precise about protocol and unforgiving about quality. Protocol governs the object. Placement of insignia, order of precedence on a plaque and the wording of a commendation are conventions rather than preferences, and getting them wrong is the one error this segment does not overlook. Plastic is the value option: light, unbreakable and the lowest cost per impression in most giveaway programs.. At this price the risk is under-ordering, not over-ordering.
3
Education, Schools & Universities
Education buys in waves: orientation, homecoming, graduation, staff appreciation. Budgets are tight and quantities are large, which pushes toward mid-tier items ordered in volume. Alumni and donor gifting is the exception: that is where the spend per unit rises sharply, because the return is measured in gifts rather than impressions. Down to $2.29 at volume, which is where this stops being a cost.
4
Hospitality, Restaurants & Breweries
In hospitality the promotional item and the retail item are the same object. Breakage and theft are line items, not accidents. Popular branded glassware walks out of a venue at a predictable rate, and the sensible response is to price it for retail rather than to fight it. Decoration holds up in this setting, which is where cheaper substrates fail. Buy for coverage. The arithmetic rewards it and the budget will not notice.
5
Healthcare & Senior Living
Healthcare buyers screen for practicality and hygiene before they screen for design. Patient-facing and staff-facing items are different purchases and should be budgeted separately. What works as a staff appreciation piece often reads as inappropriate in a waiting room, and the reverse is true just as often. An imprint area of 2 in x 2 in is enough for a logo and a line of text without crowding. At $3.70 before breaks it is cheap enough to hand out without counting.

What do buyers ask about UN4001?
How is this decorated?
We run pad printing on UN4001 as standard. Clean printing on curved and irregular surfaces. We can also run Screen Printing and UV Printing on this item if the artwork calls for it. The personalization area on UN4001 is 2 in x 2 in. A free digital proof comes back within one business day of usable artwork, and nothing is produced until you approve it in writing.
Do you keep this item in stock?
Yes. The warehouse shows more than 1,000 of UN4001 in stock as of the last hourly sync. If a color is short we say so the day you order rather than the week before the deadline. Standard production is 3 to 5 business days after proof approval, then 1 to 5 business days of ground transit.
What does it actually cost at quantity?
The published ladder on UN4001 runs from $3.70 a piece at 1-11 down to $2.29 at 500+, about 38% less per piece. Price breaks on this item fall at 1-11, 12-23, 24-47, 48-95, 96-249, 250-499, 500+. Engraving is a separate line, shown per quantity in the cost table on this page, so the all-in figure is visible before checkout. Ground freight is free on orders over $250.
Can I mix colors or sizes to reach a quantity break?
Yes, provided the artwork stays the same across the run. Different artwork is fine as well: it gets its own proof, and setup stays free. Price breaks on this item fall at 1-11, 12-23, 24-47, 48-95, 96-249, 250-499, 500+. The published ladder on UN4001 runs from $3.70 a piece at 1-11 down to $2.29 at 500+, about 38% less per piece.
Can I see a proof before you produce the order?
Yes, and nothing runs until you have signed it off. Read it properly rather than skimming, because the approved proof is the specification we produce against. Standard production is 3 to 5 business days after proof approval, then 1 to 5 business days of ground transit.
How should this be cared for?
Top-rack dishwasher safe unless noted. UN4001 measures 3" x 1 1/2" and is made of plastic. Plastic is the value option: light, unbreakable and the lowest cost per impression in most giveaway programs. We keep the approved artwork on file against the item number, so a re-order runs from the same file.
Do you ship to multiple addresses?
Yes, through a quote. Card checkout ships one order to one address, so for a split run send the address list with a quote request and we confirm the freight for every destination in writing before you pay. The artwork is proofed once and applied across the whole run. Ground freight is free on orders over $250.
What is the minimum order for UN4001?
UN4001 can be ordered from a single piece. The published ladder on UN4001 runs from $3.70 a piece at 1-11 down to $2.29 at 500+, about 38% less per piece. There is no setup fee at any quantity. The personalization area on UN4001 is 2 in x 2 in.
