Fabric Wristbands – Premium Quality You Can Count On
The market offers many types of event wristbands, but fabric wristbands—especially those made from satin polyester ribbon—stand out as the most durable and elegant solution available. They resist moisture, sweat, and mechanical damage (such as friction or tearing) with ease.
This is primarily due to the quality of the material. While Tyvek and vinyl wristbands may be more affordable, fabric options offer a more refined appearance and—arguably—the highest comfort level of all. Additionally, they can be customized almost endlessly, thanks to sublimation printing technology. This method ensures vivid, long-lasting colors (in full CMYK spectrum) and crisp designs that remain clear for a long time—making them a memorable keepsake for event attendees.
Single-Use or Reusable Fabric Wristbands
Fabric wristbands come with another advantage: unlike Tyvek or vinyl options, they can be either single-use or reusable, depending on the closure system selected. There are three main types of closures available:
-
Selfgrip – a plastic closure with teeth that prevent reopening; offers a secure fit around the wrist.
-
Aluminum – functions like a security seal and requires a crimping tool to close; once sealed, it cannot be reopened.
-
Multicoral – a bead-style plastic closure that can be adjusted for tightening or loosening, making the wristband reusable.
Extensive Customization Options
Sublimation printing offers broad possibilities for customization. Virtually any design or content can be printed—logos, event names, or any other text organizers want to display. Bright, vivid colors and high-definition prints ensure the wristbands will grab attention and maintain their appearance well beyond the end of the event.
TAG Sliders – With Text, Logos, QR Codes and More
An essential feature of these wristbands is the TAG slider—a small plastic (usually PVC) plate with two side holes through which the fabric is threaded. These TAGs can include a variety of information, such as:
Variable QR codes deserve special attention. Unlike static codes, which always lead to the same content (e.g., a website), variable QR codes can direct users to different data, such as:
The ability to update the QR code in real time offers many advantages. For example, a participant could purchase VIP access during the event, and their wristband’s QR code would instantly reflect the change. Time-limited QR codes are also possible, preventing unauthorized entry or access after a certain time.
RFID TAGs with Mifare NXP Technology
We also offer RFID-enabled TAGs, equipped with a Mifare NXP contactless chip, compliant with ISO 14443-A. These tags do not require internal power—meaning no battery replacements or recharging. This technology streamlines the flow of participants and guests by allowing fast, contactless data reading from wristbands while keeping user data secure and protected against cloning.
When Are Fabric Wristbands with Variable QR Codes the Right Choice?
Wristbands with TAG sliders featuring variable QR codes and Mifare NXP chips are the ideal solution for a wide range of applications. They help manage movement and verify access rights at festivals, concerts, and corporate events. They’re also useful for managing access to attractions at amusement parks and resorts. In hotels, they can function as digital room keys or even cashless payment tools in hotel restaurants and bars.
