MEDAL RIBBONS
Sustainable Medal Ribbons – Recycled, Custom & Event-Ready
Our Sustainable Medal Ribbons are designed to complement our medals while supporting environmentally responsible events.
Made from 100% Recycled Polyester Satin
All of our ribbons are produced using recycled polyester, typically derived from post-consumer plastic waste. The result is a smooth, soft satin ribbon that performs just like conventional satin, but aligns with sustainability goals and eco-focused event messaging.
Every medal we produce includes a plain colour recycled satin ribbon as standard, ensuring a complete, ready-to-present award. For events that want to add branding, dates, or sponsor visibility, we also offer two high-quality custom ribbon options.
Ribbon Options to Suit Your Event
Plain Colour Ribbons (Included as Standard)
Every medal order includes a plain colour recycled satin ribbon at no extra cost. These are ideal for events that prefer a clean, understated finish or want to keep costs simple while still choosing a sustainable option.
A wide range of colours is available to match event branding or medal design.
Foil Printed Ribbons – Clean, Bold & Cost-Effective
Foil printed ribbons feature a single colour ribbon with single colour printed text or logos. This option is perfect for:
Event names and dates
Club or organisation names
Simple logos or slogans
Foil printing is a popular choice for events that want branding without full-colour complexity.
Fully Sublimated Ribbons – Unlimited Design Freedom
Fully sublimated ribbons allow any design to be printed directly onto the ribbon, with no restrictions on colour or layout. This option is ideal for:
Full-colour logos
Sponsor branding
Repeating patterns or gradients
Multi-logo or detailed artwork
Sublimation printing produces vibrant, long-lasting results that won’t crack, peel, or fade, making it the most flexible option for branded events.
