Product Overview
Create a professional award experience from podium to social media photos with our Custom Medal Ribbon Lanyards—made from durable, comfortable polyester and printed with your event branding. These ribbons are designed for marathons, triathlons, tournaments, and ceremonies where clarity, color, and wear performance matter.
For different artwork needs, we offer two logo methods: heat transfer printing for full-color designs and gradients, and silk screen printing for bold, clean logos in solid colors. To make sourcing even easier, we also provide custom medals, giving you a complete, matching award set from one supplier.
