South Shields staff ID
A port town at the mouth of the Tyne
South Shields is a coastal town of 75,337 people (2021) on the south bank at the mouth of the River Tyne, in South Tyneside. Shipbuilding and coal mining drove its growth in the 19th century, and John Readhead & Sons, its largest shipyard, built ships until 1984. The Romans were here first: Arbeia fort was built around AD 160 and is part of the Hadrian’s Wall World Heritage Site.
Today the Port of Tyne has its headquarters and international freight terminal at Tyne Dock, and the local economy includes port-related work, ship repair, offshore engineering, manufacturing and the public sector. Those firms need staff ID that holds up in yards and on quaysides.
Port passes are issued by the port; we print the company staff ID your teams wear alongside them, with a photo, name, trade and logo, colour-coded by crew or site, plus a barcode for your own systems.
Every card is printed in full colour on both sides, so the back can carry safety contacts or a return address.
Seafront businesses and the Great North Run
South Shields has about six miles of coastline, from Littlehaven and Sandhaven to Marsden, and seafront cafés, arcades and hotels take on seasonal staff who need name badges. Each autumn the town is the seaside finish of the Great North Run, when local event teams need steward and volunteer badges.
See our event badge printing or our ID cards for business.
