Our company offers three different ways to attach your medals to a ribbon.
With a slot loop, small hole for clip on ribbons and we also sew them to the medal directly.
This article covers the different colour combos and options for selecting stock ribbons on our custom award or sports medals.
Stock Ribbons
We have over a dozen ribbon colour combinations to choose from. This is the fastest and most popular option for our customers. This ribbon style dictates that you choose the jump ring loop attachment.
Custom Printed (silkscreened)
This option is desirable for customers who want to add tournament or event branding to the ribbon. We use the same ribbon material as above but silkscreen your text on the ribbon. Example "2019 World Championships Toronto"
Dye Sublimated
This is the best option for customers who require multiple colours on a ribbon or complex art. This process uses inkjet printing technology to dye sublimate the fabric any colour. Learn more in this detailed post about full colour ribbons.
