Why Domestic Manufacturing Matters: Reliable ID Solutions When Supply Chains Slow Down

Avoid Delays. Source Your ID Solutions Domestically with IRIS!

In today’s unpredictable supply chain environment, delays, tariffs, and international shipping hurdles have become all too common. For organizations that rely on ID products to keep daily operations running smoothly, these disruptions can quickly cause frustration and downtime.

At The IRIS Companies, we are proud to be a domestic manufacturer and distributor of identification solutions. Our U.S.-based production and large in-stock inventory help our customers avoid the uncertainty of international supply chain issues, ensuring that your credentials, accessories, and printing supplies are always ready when you need them.

Domestic Manufacturing You Can Count On

IRIS manufactures a full range of custom identification accessories, including:

• Custom lanyards (dye-sublimated, screen printed, and round cord)

• Badge reels with custom labels

• Service bureau ID badges

• Event badges and passes

• Parking hangtags

• Badge backers

• Key fobs

• Sports Roster & Schedule Cards

• Custom wristbands

Because these products are made right here in the United States, our customers benefit from shorter lead times, consistent quality, and responsive customer service. No waiting on overseas shipments or unexpected customs delays. Just fast, reliable delivery and dedicated support from our Pennsylvania-based team.

Large In-Stock Inventory for Immediate Needs

In addition to our custom manufacturing capabilities, IRIS maintains a large, ready-to-ship inventory of identification products and supplies. This includes:

• ID card printers and printer ribbons

By stocking these essentials, we help customers stay ahead of disruptions. Whether you are replenishing supplies or launching a new identification program, we can fulfill your order quickly. Stock items ordered before 2PM EST qualify for Same Day Shipping!

Navigating Today’s Supply Chain Challenges

Global supply chains continue to face challenges that include tariff increases and heightened customs inspections that can add weeks to expected delivery times. For many businesses, schools, and events, those delays simply are not an option.

That is why more organizations are choosing domestic partners like IRIS. Our U.S.-based production means your identification solutions are not sitting in a container overseas. They are being made, packed, and shipped from our facility with full quality control and accountability.

Whether you need just custom lanyards, a full suite of ID accessories, or the printers and supplies to manage them in-house, The IRIS Companies is your trusted partner. Our commitment to domestic manufacturing and maintaining a large inventory means we can deliver what you need, when you need it, without the uncertainty of global shipping delays.
