Menda ESD-Safe Horizontal Proximity Badge Holder with Slot – Yellow Header, 35015
Keep employee identification badges and proximity cards visible, organized, and accessible in electrostatic discharge (ESD) controlled environments with this horizontal badge holder from Menda. Designed for electronics manufacturing, assembly facilities, repair departments, and other workplaces handling static-sensitive components, this holder provides a practical alternative to conventional plastic identification sleeves.
Manufactured from specially formulated static-dissipative vinyl, the holder helps minimize electrostatic charge generation during everyday handling. Its dissipative 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 punched attachment slot allows the holder to be used with compatible badge clips, straps, or lanyards.
The horizontal design accommodates identification inserts measuring up to 3-3/8" x 2-11/16", making it suitable for compatible employee badges, proximity access cards, and visitor identification. A convenient top opening allows badges to be inserted and removed without a zipper or additional closure.
An internal anti-print liner helps prevent printed information from transferring onto the vinyl holder, supporting repeated use with different identification cards.
Made in the USA, this durable badge holder is an excellent choice for employees, technicians, engineers, and visitors working in ESD-controlled manufacturing and service environments.

ESD Protection for Workplace Identification
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 through handling, rubbing, or movement. In ESD-controlled environments, selecting appropriate materials for everyday accessories is an important part of reducing unnecessary sources of static electricity.
This Menda badge holder is manufactured from specially formulated dissipative vinyl with a specified surface resistance range of 1 x 10⁴ to less than 1 x 10¹¹ ohms.
The material also exhibits tribocharging of less than 100 volts under specified test conditions, making it a practical choice for personnel working around static-sensitive electronic components.
Horizontal Design for Proximity Cards
The horizontal orientation is designed for identification inserts measuring 3-3/8" wide by 2-11/16" high.
This landscape format is convenient for compatible employee badges, access cards, visitor passes, and other identification inserts.
The holder measures 3-15/16" wide by 3-1/16" high overall, providing room for the card and upper attachment area.
Its clear vinyl construction allows identification information to remain visible without removing the card.
Highly Visible Yellow Header
The yellow header provides an easy way to distinguish this holder from ordinary badge sleeves.
The ESD Protective symbol is displayed on the header, allowing employees and supervisors to recognize it as an accessory designed for ESD-controlled environments.
This visible identification is especially useful in electronics manufacturing facilities and other workplaces where ESD awareness is important.
Convenient Attachment Slot
A punched slot at the top of the holder provides an attachment point for compatible lanyards, badge clips, and straps.
The slot measures 1/8" x 9/16" and is positioned approximately 3/8" below the top edge.
This allows employees to wear their identification badges or attach them to compatible accessories for convenient everyday access.
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 feature is particularly useful for employee identification cards, visitor badges, and other printed inserts that may remain inside the sleeve for extended periods.
The anti-print liner is non-ESD vinyl, while the holder's outer material is static dissipative.
Durable Construction for Everyday Use
The holder features a 12 mil front and 24 mil back, providing a combination of flexibility and durability.
Its top-opening design allows identification cards to be inserted and removed easily, without the need for a zipper.
The reusable construction makes it suitable for everyday use in manufacturing facilities, service departments, and other ESD-controlled workplaces.
