A Guide to Custom Wristbands

They come in a variety of materials, including vinyl, plastic, rubber, and silicone.  Not only can they be made out of several different materials, they can also have designs embossed or imprinted on them.     
 
There are a number of companies that manufacture custom wristbands.  Wristbands have become much more popular over the last year, which has led to a jump in the number of wristband makers on the market.  Most makers only accept orders for at least 500 custom wristbands, but they do offer discounts for even larger orders. 

The wristbands can be decorated with designs or patterns depending on the type of material they are made of.  Rubber and silicone wristbands can have slogans or names embossed on them.  The most well known example of this is the yellow “Livestrong” wristband that many people wear.  Vinyl and plastic wristbands often have designs printed on the fasteners.  Single use paper wristbands are often covered in patterns like stripes or stars.

Paper custom wristbands are perfect for crowd control.  They can be given to people as proof that they paid admission to a carnival or concert.  Paper wristbands can also be used to designate people who are of legal drinking age.  Vinyl and plastic wristbands are also good in these situations, but they are more expensive. 

Rubber and silicone wristbands are hugely popular now.  Many charities and organizations sell them to raise money for their cause.  The color and slogan on the wristbands tells people what cause they support.   

There are many advantages to using custom wristbands.  They are inexpensive, unique, and sturdy enough to stay in place on a person’s wrist.
