Have your company logo or personal message custom

 printed on Satin, trilobal or Petersham (woven) ribbon.

Branded ribbon is a great and very cost effective way to promote your brand, or to send a message to the recipient of your gifts.

We are able to brand satin ribbon, or woven (petersham) ribbon, or trilobal satin ribbon (printed both sides with a digital print.)

Minimum order quantities of 200 meters per print applies, and our printed ribbon is very popular for use by medical and corporate companies, as well as brides to decorate their flowers, the wedding car and the wedding favour gifts.  Our branded gift ribbon is also very popular with retail shops were it is re-sold per meter with phrases printed on it.

 

 

Branded Satin Ribbon

Specifications for printing on our Polyester / Sparkle Satin Ribbon

Rotary printing:

This Method of printing on ribbon is the most cost effective way of printing.  We are able to print up to 6 solid spot colours on a white satin ribbon, and only a single dark colour on the light coloured satin ribbon.  Should you require a light print on a coloured satin ribbon, please make use of the screenprinting option.  This printing process is suitable for us as labels on clothing and can be washed and ironed without loosing the print quality on the ribbon.

Satin Ribbon widths start at 10mm and ranges up to 150mm.   The maxium artwork repeat for rotary printing is 47.3cm.  We are able to heat cut strips of ribbon in different widths to ensure the ribbon does not fray if you need to use it in shorter units such as making ribbon bows.

The rotary printing option can also be used to brand woven petersham ribbon, but ribbon widths of 20mm, 25mm and 30mm is the widest available for printing.  Rotary printing on woven ribbon is reserved to white ribbon only.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Foiled ribbon

 

The foiling method of branding on gift ribbon can only be used on satin ribbon (white or coloured ribbon).  

The maximum artwork length of your art is no more than 120mm with a repeat gap of at least 5cm.  

We can foil in two colours on a single ribbon and the foil colours available ranges from metalic black, bronze, gold, pink, red, green, blue and silver.  Foiling can be done on satin ribbon widths from 10mm but no wider than 40mm.

The foiling process is used for decorative ribbon only and should not be used on ribbon that will be washed and used on garments.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Screen Printed ribbon

 

Screen printing can be done on either white or coloured ribbon, and also on our woven ribbon colours.  The screen printing process places the ink on top of the ribbon, so it is not suitable for use on labels or hardwearing ribbon used on clothing.

 

Our screen-printing screens can print artwork of up to 1meter, but always allow 20mm spaces between artwork repeats.  We can screen-print in only one colour on satin, but in two colours on petersham / woven ribbon (as long as the colours do not touch each other in the artwork - please allow up to 5mm between colours).  Please remember that one cannot iron on screen printed ribbon.

 

 

 

 

 

Dye-Sublimation (digital full colour) printed ribbon 

This printing process is digital printing on ribbon - it is almost like printing photo images onto ribbon.  The ribbon we use for this as good as photo quality.  This printing option is great for logos and prints with shading and coloured backgrounds.  The maximum repeat on this type of print is 1 meter.  Should the background of the print be a solid colour, there will be a join line every 1meter on the ribbon (where the repeat joins) - this will not happen for white backgrounds.  (great printing option for lanyards)  We prefer to print on trilobal satin rather than polyester satin - the material is thicker and the print easier. 

Our Standard range of coloured Satin ribbon (suitable for printing):

White, Ivory, Champagne, Cream (can also be used as light gold), Beige, Silver,

Light Pink, Orange, Burgundy, Chocolate Brown, Cerise pink, Red,  Crimson Red (darker),

Yellow, Emerald Green, Light Blue, Royal Blue, French Navy, Navy, Purple, Bottle Green and Black.

Some colour combinations really look good on the coloured ribbon!   

 

All our ribbon are especially prepared for printing, so the printing and foiling really works well.  

However if you have your very own ribbon, and would like us to print on it, we will gladly do it, just keep in mind that the end result cannot be guaranteed like when we print on the ribbon we supply. For intricate designs we need to print on a wide ribbon such as the 30 - 38mm.

On the narrow 10mm ribbon we can print simple one colour designs that still look classy and conveys your personal message. 

Here's a great idea for using printed ribbon as part of your gift packaging -

print your menu, invitation or other text onto a wider ribbon (from 55mm up) and use it as a functional decoration on your gift packaging or as part of the decor for your event or function! Minimum qty's for personalised ribbon start at 200meters.
