Menda ESD-Safe Vertical Proximity Badge Holder with Slot – Yellow Header, 35014
Keep identification badges and proximity cards visible and accessible in electrostatic discharge (ESD) controlled environments with this vertical ESD-safe badge holder from Menda. Designed for electronics manufacturing, assembly facilities, clean production areas, and other workplaces handling static-sensitive components, this holder provides a practical alternative to ordinary plastic badge sleeves.
Manufactured from specially formulated static-dissipative vinyl, the holder is designed to help minimize electrostatic charge generation during normal handling. Its material has a specified surface resistance range of 1 x 10⁴ to less than 1 x 10¹¹ ohms, tested according to ANSI/ESD STM11.11, and exhibits tribocharging of less than 100 volts.
The highly visible yellow header features the ESD Protective symbol, making the holder easy to identify in workplaces with established ESD control procedures. A convenient attachment slot allows it to be used with compatible badge clips, straps, or lanyards.
The vertical design accommodates proximity cards and identification inserts measuring up to 2-1/8" x 4". An internal anti-print liner helps prevent printed information from transferring onto the vinyl holder, while the top opening allows convenient insertion and removal of badges.
Made in the USA, this reusable badge holder is ideal for employees, technicians, engineers, and visitors working in ESD-controlled environments.

ESD Protection for Identification Badges
Identification badges are commonly worn throughout the workday, including in areas where sensitive electronic components are handled.
Ordinary plastic badge holders may generate or retain electrostatic charge during handling and movement. In ESD-controlled environments, selecting suitable materials for everyday workplace accessories is an important part of reducing unnecessary sources of static electricity.
This Menda badge holder uses specially formulated dissipative vinyl with a specified surface resistance range of 1 x 10⁴ to less than 1 x 10¹¹ ohms.
Its low-tribocharging material helps minimize static generation during normal handling, making it a practical choice for employees working around static-sensitive components.
Highly Visible Yellow Header
The yellow header makes this badge holder easy to identify and distinguish from conventional identification sleeves.
An ESD Protective symbol is prominently displayed on the header, allowing employees and supervisors to recognize the holder as an accessory intended for ESD-controlled environments.
This visible identification is especially useful in electronics manufacturing facilities, assembly areas, and other workplaces where ESD awareness is important.
Convenient Vertical Design
The vertical orientation accommodates identification inserts measuring 2-1/8" wide by 4" high.
This format is suitable for compatible employee badges, proximity cards, visitor passes, and other identification inserts.
The holder measures 2-11/16" wide by 4-3/8" high overall, providing space for the identification insert and upper attachment area.
Attachment Slot for Lanyards and Clips
A punched slot at the top of the holder provides a convenient attachment point for compatible badge accessories.
The slot measures 1/8" x 9/16" and is positioned approximately 3/8" below the top edge.
This allows the holder to be attached to compatible lanyards, clips, or straps for convenient everyday use.
For a complete ESD-conscious badge setup, the holder can be paired with an appropriate ESD protective lanyard.
Anti-Print Liner Helps Protect Badge Information
The holder includes an internal anti-print vinyl liner designed to help prevent printed information from transferring onto the holder.
This is particularly useful for employee identification cards, visitor badges, and other printed inserts that may remain inside the sleeve for extended periods.
The liner also helps maintain the appearance of the holder during regular use.
The inner liner is non-ESD vinyl, while the holder's outer material is static dissipative.
Durable Construction for Everyday Use
The badge holder features a 12 mil front and 24 mil back, providing a combination of visibility and durability.
Its top-opening design allows identification cards to be inserted and removed without operating a zipper.
The reusable construction makes it suitable for daily use by employees and technicians in manufacturing and service environments.
Made in the USA
Menda manufactures this badge holder in Chino, California.
Its custom dissipative vinyl construction is designed for workplaces requiring ESD-conscious identification accessories.
