UK Wristbands

You can design event wristbands online and, on orders placed before 3pm, have them printed and dispatched the same day, in Tyvek, vinyl, fabric, silicone or recyclable paper.

UK Wristbands Ltd supplies custom event wristbands from Eastbourne, East Sussex. Its website describes an online designer where buyers choose colours, add logos and personalise text, then order directly. The company lists Tyvek, vinyl, fabric and silicone wristbands alongside eco options, and says it offers fast shipping.

We list it under wristbands, event and exhibition merchandise, event merchandise and everyday promotional items.

Products

• Tyvek wristbands: colour print, black print only, variable data, plain, VIP pre-printed and themed or seasonal versions. The site describes Tyvek as lightweight and tear-resistant.
• Vinyl wristbands: described as waterproof and tamper-proof, with colour and glitter options.
• Fabric wristbands: customisable with text, logos and any base colour.
• Silicone wristbands: personalised with text and logos for events, fundraisers and awareness campaigns.
• Passes and fittings: the designer also offers stick-on stickers, car hooks and card passes.

The eco range includes RecycleBands paper wristbands, which the company says can be recycled at the kerbside, plus rPET recycled fabric, litter-free Tyvek made without excess backing tabs, biodegradable bamboo fabric, BioBand, Compost Band and seeded paper. If you need to test environmental claims before committing, our guide to eco-friendly promotional products and how to check the claims covers the questions to ask.

Ordering and turnaround

Orders are placed online through the designer, which comes in simple and advanced versions. The website says orders placed before 3pm are printed and dispatched the same day, and gives an estimated delivery of 1 to 3 days for its Tyvek products. It says it holds over 10 million wristbands in stock, in 19mm and 25mm widths. Product pages carry a sample option. Ordering several colours in one lot adds a listed charge of £4.00.

Variable data and artwork

Barcodes (Type 128), QR codes and numbering can be added to a design, each listed at £36, and the site says uploaded data files must be Excel. An electronic proof carries an additional £10.00 charge. The company says it does not provide proofs for artwork sent by email, and recommends uploading artwork into the designer to preview it first. Every wristband carries UK Wristbands branding on the reverse, with an option to remove it. The site says its team will help with artwork creation and aims to respond to all queries within 2 hours. Our guide to briefing a promotional merchandise supplier is useful before you send a design.
