A Brief History Of The Promotional Lanyard

The word lanyard comes from the French word ‘laniere’ which means strap. The very first lanyards were used in the 15th Century and were made of a simple piece of rope. They were used on board ships and these lanyards were humble straps tied to whistles, swords or pistols. The modern lanyard is much more elaborate, made from many different material options and they are much more likely to hold an employee’s identification card than a pistol!
