Fully Customizable Medal Ribbon Solutions
Every medal project can have different requirements. Instead of limiting you to a fixed ribbon specification, Seek Ribbon can develop the ribbon according to your medal design, artwork, wearer, event, and quantity.
Custom Ribbon Material
Depending on the application and required appearance, medal ribbons can be produced using different ribbon constructions and materials.
- Satin ribbon
- Grosgrain ribbon
- Polyester ribbon
- Polyester webbing
- Nylon ribbon
- Woven ribbon
- Other custom ribbon constructions
Material selection can be matched to the required printing method, appearance, durability, budget, and medal design.
Custom Ribbon Width
Medal ribbons can be produced in different widths according to the medal size, artwork, wearer, and application.
- 15mm
- 20mm
- 25mm
- 30mm
- 38mm
- Custom width
For many standard medal applications, narrower ribbon widths provide a practical balance between comfort and branding space. Wider ribbons can be used when the artwork, logo, sponsor information, or medal design requires a larger printing area.
Need a non-standard width? Custom widths can be discussed based on your medal and production requirements.
Custom Ribbon Length
Ribbon length can be customized according to the intended wearer and medal design.
- Adult medal ribbons
- Youth medal ribbons
- Children’s event ribbons
- Custom lengths
When determining the appropriate length, we can consider the wearer’s age group, medal dimensions, ribbon construction, folding method, and attachment design.
Custom Ribbon Colors
Choose a stock ribbon color or request a custom color to match your event or brand identity.
Popular colors include red, blue, navy, royal blue, green, black, white, gold, silver, purple, pink, orange, and many other shades.
For larger projects, custom color matching can be discussed according to the required color reference and production specifications.
Custom Printing Options for Medal Ribbons
Your medal ribbon can be customized with event names, logos, dates, sponsor information, patterns, graphics, or other approved artwork.
Full-Color Sublimation Printing
Full-color sublimation is suitable for detailed artwork, multiple colors, gradients, photographs, event graphics, and designs containing several logos.
It is particularly useful for race and sports medal ribbons where organizers want to combine the event identity with sponsor logos and colorful artwork.
Ink and Screen Printing
Ink or screen printing can be considered for simpler designs such as one- or two-color logos, event names, text, and repeating branding.
Woven Designs
Woven medal ribbons can be produced for projects that require the artwork to be integrated into the ribbon structure. Woven construction can provide a distinctive and premium appearance for selected award and recognition applications.
Foil Printing
Gold, silver, and other metallic foil effects can be considered for suitable ribbon materials and designs when a premium or formal appearance is required.
Put Your Logo on the Medal Ribbon
A custom medal ribbon provides a highly visible location for your event or organization branding. Your ribbon can feature a company logo, event logo, club emblem, school identity, sponsor logo, or custom graphic.
Common layouts include:
- Logo + Event Name
- Logo + Event Date
- Event Logo + Sponsor Logos
- Repeating Logo Pattern
- Event Name + Year
- Multiple Sponsor Logos
- Full-Color Custom Artwork
- Personalized Participant Information
For long ribbons, repeating logos and text can create a consistent pattern along the entire ribbon.
Sponsor Logo Medal Ribbons
For races, charity events, tournaments, and corporate programs, the medal ribbon can also be used to display sponsor branding.
Multiple sponsor logos can be arranged together with the event logo, event name, date, or other information. Repeating sponsor branding can be used when greater visibility is required across the ribbon.
This makes the medal ribbon part of the event’s overall branding rather than simply an attachment for the medal.
Double-Sided Custom Medal Ribbons
For projects that require different information on each side, double-sided medal ribbon constructions can be considered.
For example:
- Front: Event logo and event name
- Back: Sponsor logo or organizer information
- Front: Competition name and year
- Back: Website or commemorative message
Double-sided options can be developed according to the material, printing method, artwork, and production requirements.
Personalized Medal Ribbons
Some events require more than a standard logo-printed ribbon. For suitable projects, personalized or variable artwork can be considered for different participants, categories, teams, or award levels.
Examples include:
- Participant names
- Age groups
- Competition categories
- Team names
- Finisher information
- Winner or award categories
Variable personalization requirements should be discussed before production so the appropriate printing process can be selected.
Custom Medal Ribbon Attachment Options
The connection between the ribbon and medal is an important part of the finished product. Seek Ribbon can discuss different attachment and construction options according to the medal design.
- Jump ring attachment
- D-ring attachment
- Dog clip attachment
- Custom metal attachment
- Sewn construction
- Ultrasonic welded construction
- Other custom attachment solutions
If you already have a medal, provide its dimensions, attachment hole, slot, ring, or existing connection design. We can evaluate the ribbon construction and attachment requirements for the project.
Custom Ribbon Designed Around Your Medal
Different medals require different ribbon solutions. A small children’s medal, a large marathon medal, and a heavy corporate award may require different ribbon widths, lengths, constructions, and attachment methods.
Instead of selecting a ribbon based only on a standard catalog specification, you can provide your medal information and let us develop the ribbon requirements around the finished award.
For custom projects, useful information includes:
- Medal dimensions
- Medal weight
- Medal attachment method
- Required ribbon width
- Required ribbon length
- Event type
- Target wearer or age group
- Artwork and logo files
- Required quantity
- Packaging requirements
- Target delivery date

We organise community fun runs and charity races across Australia, and medal ribbons are always a headache—they need to look professional, handle our unpredictable weather, and showcase multiple sponsor logos clearly. We ordered custom medal ribbons from Seek Ribbon for a recent 10K event in Melbourne, and the whole process was seamless. The team helped us choose a 25mm polyester ribbon with full-colour sublimation printing, which handled our event logo and four sponsor logos without any blurring. The jump ring attachment matched our existing medals perfectly. Delivery to Australia was quicker than expected, and the bulk pricing suited our not-for-profit budget. For any Aussie race organisers needing reliable medal ribbons supplier, I’d recommend giving them a go.
