Custom Sublimation Lanyards in Dubai, Sharjah, Ajman & Abu Dhabi
If you’ve been searching for a custom sublimation lanyard supplier in Dubai who can actually match your logo colors instead of rounding them off to the nearest Pantone, you’re in the right place. We Five Advertising prints custom lanyards using full sublimation the dye is heat-fused directly into the polyester fabric, so gradients, multi-color logos, and photo-style artwork come out sharp on both sides, not just a flat single-color print. It’s the same reason most offices, event organizers, and schools across the UAE now ask for sublimation lanyards by name instead of the cheaper screen-printed kind.
We supply and print customized lanyards for offices and events across Dubai, from single-office ID lanyards to large exhibition batches with same-week deadlines. Whether you need standard sublimation lanyards, satin lanyards for a more premium finish, or corporate lanyards ordered in bulk with staggered delivery, our production runs in-house so your artwork goes from file to finished lanyard without passing through a third-party printer.

A few things that keep your order moving without back-and-forth delays:
- Artwork: vector files (AI, EPS, or PDF) print sharpest; a high-resolution PNG or JPEG (300dpi at final print size) works for straightforward logos
- Color matching: give us Pantone (PMS) references where brand colors matter we’ll match to them in the digital mockup before production
- Printable sides: both sides of the lanyard can carry full-color print at no extra cost, since sublimation dyes the whole strip
- Sampling: physical samples can be produced before a bulk run; sample cost is confirmed at quote stage and is typically credited against the full order
- Delivery: dispatch timing is confirmed once artwork is approved, not from the date the order is placed approving your mockup promptly keeps the quoted turnaround accurate
Design Support: Once your order is confirmed and paid, our design team works directly with you on mockups and revisions.

Standard Sublimation Lanyards
Our most-ordered option. Woven polyester webbing (15mm, 20mm, or 25mm width) with your logo, text, or pattern dye-sublimated edge to edge in full color. Because sublimation prints the whole surface rather than stamping individual colors, a five-color logo costs the same to produce as a single-color one there’s no per-color setup charge to worry about. Finish is a smooth matte-satin polyester feel, and the print won’t crack, peel, or fade the way heat-transfer vinyl does over daily wear.
Satin Lanyards
Satin lanyards use a finer-weave polyester with a slight sheen, giving a noticeably softer, more premium hand-feel than standard woven lanyards. They’re the option most corporate and VIP clients in Dubai ask for when the lanyard itself is part of the brand presentation think five-star hotel staff, gala or awards-night guest passes, and executive conference badges. Printing is still full sublimation, so the color depth and detail are identical to the standard option; the difference is purely in the fabric.
Tube Lanyards
A round, cord-style lanyard rather than flat webbing, produced by sublimating the design onto fabric before it’s formed into the tube. The logo typically repeats along the length rather than sitting as a single flat graphic. Popular for sports clubs, gyms, and casual-branding giveaways where a flat lanyard would look too corporate.
Who Orders Custom Lanyards From Us
Sublimation lanyards get used differently depending on the setting, which changes what actually matters in the order colors, breakaway safety, or just turnaround speed.
- Corporate offices: Staff ID lanyards in brand colors, usually reordered as headcount grows; free-zone companies in Dubai, Sharjah, and Ajman often standardize colors across departments
- Schools & universities: Breakaway-clip lanyards for student and staff ID cards, ordered in bulk ahead of the academic year
- Government & semi-government entities: Uniform lanyard specs across departments, often with strict Pantone matching to an official brand guideline
- Exhibitions & conferences: Short-lead, high-volume orders for events at DWTC, ADNEC, and similar venues, frequently alongside badge printing
- Hospitals & clinics: Breakaway lanyards for clinical staff, sometimes color-coded by department or role
- Hotels & hospitality: Satin lanyards for guest and staff passes where finish quality is part of the brand experience
Why Choose We Five Advertising
- Full edge-to-edge color, no per-color pricing: Because sublimation dyes the fabric rather than layering ink, a multi-color or gradient logo prints for the same cost as a single-color design unlike screen printing, which typically adds a setup charge per color.
- Printing done in-house, not outsourced: Sublimation, cutting, and hardware assembly all happen at our own facility, so your artwork isn’t handed off to a separate print shop which is also how we hold consistent color matching across repeat orders.
- 2-7 working day turnaround on standard orders: Most orders are produced and delivered within 2-7 working days of artwork approval; larger runs or highly customized specs (custom hardware, unusual widths, rush branding) are quoted with a specific timeline upfront, not left open-ended.
- 15+ years in promotional printing: We Five Advertising has been producing corporate gifts and branded print items for UAE businesses for over 15 years, which is also why repeat clients can reorder against an existing color and spec file instead of resubmitting artwork each time.

Frequently Asked Questions
Q1: What is a sublimation lanyard?
It’s a lanyard where the design is dyed directly into the polyester fabric using heat and pressure, rather than printed on top of it. This lets it carry full-color, gradient, or photo-style artwork without the color limits of screen printing, and the print won’t crack or peel with normal use.
Q2: What's the difference between sublimation and satin lanyards?
Sublimation describes the printing method; satin describes the fabric. Our satin lanyards are still printed using full sublimation they just use a finer-weave, slightly glossier polyester base, which gives a softer feel than our standard woven lanyard fabric.
Q3: What's the minimum order quantity for custom lanyards?
We can produce small batches for single-office or trial orders, with better per-unit pricing at higher volumes. Tell us the quantity you’re planning and we’ll quote accordingly there’s no fixed minimum that rules out a smaller first order.
Q4: Can both sides of the lanyard be printed?
Yes. Because sublimation dyes the entire strip rather than adding a layer of ink, double-sided printing doesn’t cost more than single-sided.
Q5: How long does lanyard printing take in Dubai?
Standard orders are produced and delivered within 2-7 working days of artwork approval. Larger volumes or custom hardware can extend that slightly we confirm the exact date at quote stage, not after the order is placed.
Q6: What hook or clip options can I choose?
Bulldog clip, swivel hook, trigger hook, carabiner, and safety breakaway connectors are all available, along with add-ons like a D-ring or retractable badge reel. Breakaway connectors are the standard recommendation for schools, hospitals, and industrial settings.
Q7: Do you deliver custom lanyards outside Dubai?
Yes — we deliver across Sharjah, Ajman, Abu Dhabi, and the rest of the UAE, including Ras Al Khaimah, Fujairah, and Umm Al Quwain.
Q8: Do you supply lanyards for schools and government offices?
Yes, both are regular order categories for us. Schools typically order breakaway-clip lanyards ahead of the academic year, and government or semi-government offices often need strict Pantone matching to an existing brand guideline we handle both as standard.
