At last - a better expiring visitor badge!

by Paul Kazlauskas

New Tandem-Expiring Visitor Badges change color overnight to prevent reuse, plus offers BIG advantages over its expiring badge predecessors. It is simple, affordable, and secure.

Less costly
Tandem-Expiring Visitor Badges cost $189 per pack of 1,000. That is 17% to 35% less than other styles of expiring visitor badges.

More secure
The product’s default state after being printed looks like the badge is expired. The badge is not valid to wear until it is authenticated by placing the white dot on the red circle on front of the visitor badge. This process ensures that the badge is activated correctly every time a visitor puts it on. Gone are the days of someone being given an expiring visitor badge without having it be activated and the color changing process begun so it shows a bright pink “void” after 4 to 6 hours.

Easier to activate
The pass comes with everything you need to start the color-changing process. The badge, front piece dot, and directions are all right there for your convenience. The built-in activation provides better visual security for your facility and ease of use for your visitors.

Here’s how it works:

 
(1) Each badge comes out of the printer showing it is VOID, with a white sticker attached to the label liner.

 
(2) The badge isn’t valid to wear until the attached white sticker is placed over the red VOID circle. This also activates the color-changing process that gradually turns a VALID badge today into a VOID badge tomorrow.

 
(3) Now the badge is VALID and ready for the visit.

(4) By the next day, the badge is completely VOID and can’t be reused.
