Custom Wristbands & Giveaways to Elevate Your Brand

Our identification wristbands

Whatever the material used in the manufacture of our products, we guarantee that they will stand up to any test of strength and reliability. If your events last longer than a day, opt for one of our Tyvek event wristbands, which are as tearproof as they are waterproof.

Silicone, vinyl, fabric, plastic and synthetics are just some of the materials used in our production chain to create products to suit all your needs. We even have a range for hospitals.
