Printing
Q. Do you print in colour?
A. Yes we print in a full CMYK colour process.
Q. Does the background wristband colour effect colour print.
A. Yes, the wristband colour can show through colour print changing its colour. We recommend only printing colour on white wristbands or darker colours than the wristband colour itself.
Example 1 - if you have a red wristband with a yellow logo, the logo will likely have an orange tint.
Example 2 – If you have a dark blue wristband, green print will show faint but black text or logos will show clearer.
Q. What is the printable area?
A.
Q. How much of the wristband is seen once worn on a wrist?
A.
Please note this is a rough guide only. Wristbands visibility once on the wrist is subject to the size of a person’s wrist.
Q. Can I have edge to edge or bleed off wristbands?
A. As standard, there is a non-printable area/boarder around the wristbands (see image above). We can supply edge to edge or bleed off wristbands. If required, please contact us for a quote.
Q. Can I print numbering and/or barcodes on Tyvek wristbands?
A. Yes, please contact us to discuss your requirements.
Q. What wristbands size is better for children?
A. Both 19mm & 25mm width wristbands are 250mm in length. Due to the adhesive area, the length of the wristband can be suitable for any size wrist. Customers generally choose 19mm for children but both sizes are suitable.
Q. What wristband size is better for printing?
A. You can print on both 19mm & 25mm width wristbands. We strongly recommend 25mm wristbands if you have a complex design, multiple logos or two lines of text. We can print all the above on 19mm wristbands but will be considerable smaller.
Q. Can I have two lines of text?
A. Yes on 25mm as standard (19mm if the advanced designer option used). To print a second line, flick the ‘second line of text’ button to open.
Q. Can I have multiple logos on one wristband?
A. Yes, you will either need to upload a complete print ready file or place them independently using the advanced drag and drop designer.
Q. What is the difference between basic and advanced designer?
A. The basic designer allows for simple text and logo designs and is the easiest and most used designer option. The advanced designer is slightly more complicated to use. It is a drag and drop builder for creating more complex designs.
Q. Can I see a proof?
A. As standard we provide the online screen representation as you are creating your wristband design. Once you have checked out, you have confirmed your design and we will print it as it is. You can purchase a pre-print proof but will need to contact the UK Wristbands team to discuss your needs.
Q. Can I choose more than one colour wristband to print on?
A. Yes, simply select the mixed symbol within the designer and choose the combination of colours.
Q. Can I have more than one design?
A. Yes, each design would need to be added to your shopping bag separately. Each design requires a separate set up.
Q. What is the minimum quantity of Tyvek wristbands per colour or design?
A. The minimum order per design or colour is 100 wristbands.
Q. Can I have white text on Tyvek wristbands?
A. We don’t currently offer white print on Tyvek Wristbands.

A. Yes, provided the full order quantity is returned within 14 days in ‘as new’ saleable condition. It is your responsibility to ensure they are packaged securely for return in the correct condition.
Q. Can I return custom printed wristbands.
