$353.23Box of 1,000 · $0.353 per badgePart #T5595A
Overview
Visitor badges that expire on their own
Two-part system: This badge back is not a full solution. A compatible badge front is required for use.
The TEMPbadge T5595A is a large 3 x 4 inch handwritten badge back preprinted VISITOR, with a printed token expiration area and a slot for clip-on wear (part number T5595A).
How it works
Write the visitor's name and details directly on the badge, then apply a TEMPbadge expiring token to the marked token area at check-in. The token's chemical timer changes color as it runs, so an expired badge is easy to spot and cannot be reused.
What you need
TEMPbadge expiring tokens for the token area, plus a strap clip or lanyard for the slot. The badge back itself is handwritten, so no printer is required.
Specifications
Size: 3 x 4 inches
Pack: 1,000 badge backs per box
Personalization: Handwritten, preprinted VISITOR
Attachment: Clip-on, slotted
Expiration: Set by the expiring token you apply
This product comes in packs of 1,000 badges. Ordering a quantity of 1 means you will receive one box of 1,000 badges.
Made to order. This item is produced fresh by the factory, typically about 8 weeks, because the chemical timer performs best when fresh. Contact us for the current lead time.
How it works
The color builds until the badge reads expired
Once the badge is activated, dye migrates at a steady rate and the expiring area shades from white to pink to red. These are the actual TEMPbadge lab shade charts; the dashed box marks the recommended expiration time.
Times are approximate. The timer is chemical: warmth and humidity speed it up, cool dry air slows it down.
Good to know
Expiration times are guidelines, not exact clocks. The timer is chemical and made for indoor use: warmer or more humid air runs it faster, cooler and drier air runs it slower. A 1-Day badge can expire in as little as 10 hours.
This item is made to order. The factory produces it fresh, typically in about 8 weeks, because the chemical timer performs best when fresh. Contact us for the current lead time before ordering.
Are these badges in stock?
Most TEMPbadge items on our site ship shortly after the order is placed. However, many items are made to order by the factory and typically take about 8 weeks, because the chemical timer performs best when fresh. Made-to-order items are marked on the product page. Contact us for current lead times.
How does the badge expire?
Apply a TEMPbadge expiring token to the printed token area at check-in. The token's chemical timer changes color as it runs; timing depends on the token you choose, from about 4-6 hours for half-day up to about 4-7 days for 7-day tokens.
Can the badges be reused?
No. Each badge back is handwritten for one visitor, and an applied expiring token cannot be stopped or reset.
What else do I need?
TEMPbadge expiring tokens for the token area, plus strap clips or lanyards for the slot. No printer is required.
Do temperature and humidity affect the timer?
Yes. Token expiration is driven by a chemical timer, so warm and humid conditions make it run somewhat faster and cool, dry conditions slow it down. The stated times are approximate.
What does box of 1,000 mean?
One unit is one box of 1,000 badge backs. If you order a quantity of 1, you receive 1,000 badges.
