Wristbands Rising to the Ocassion


Raised text or embossed silicone wristbands are great way to get your message and logo noticed. Since all text and images stand above the band, these messages have become very popular amongst nonprofit organizations trying to raise funds for those visually impaired individuals. Braille can be produced on these types of bands and are just as durable and long lasting as any of our other products. Many non profit and schools that work with the visually impaired have used this style of wristband for a number of reasons.

Anyone wanting to really get their message across can create an embossed silicone wristband. Companies, nonprofits and charities have all used embossed silicone wristbands because they are most desirable for promotions and marketing due to the fact that the message is often easier to read especially if your wristband is a darker color. Used for raising funds, inspirational quotes for the visually impaired, promotions, marketing; embossed silicone wristbands really do raise to the occasion. Embossed silicone wristbands can be produced with any solid color, swirl or segmented. The limit is your own imagination. Visit our wristband creator now and get started on your raised text silicone wristband.

Wear your Wristbands to Stop Bullying

Anti-Bullying Wristbands

So much is being said about this problem affecting our schools. A generation ago there was not so much information nor support for victims of bullying, now simply type the word into any search engine and you get thousands of pages dedicated to ending this ever spreading problem.

Blue has been the color assigned to bullying awareness.  Silicone wristbands or rubber bracelets can help raise the awareness necessary to help those who may be living in fear from their school bullies feel safer at school and in their community.

Schools and youth organizations seeking to end bullying in their schools or communities may wish to order these with a simple message of “End Bullying” or “Stop the Bullying” and then distribute amongst their schools and or youth organizations.  Each wristband could be used as a part of an anti-bullying campaign or used as an identifier of a trusted individual. Anti bullying silicone wristbands do not have to come in blue they can come in whatever color you want and have whatever message you wish.  Visit our wristband creator or our website wristbands.net and check out all of our designs and rubber bracelets.

Cystic Fibrosis Awareness Wristbands


Cystic Fibrosis is an autosomal recessive genetic disorder affecting most critically the lungs, and also the pancreas, liver, and intestine. May has been designated as Cystic Fibrosis Awareness month.  In the US, it is thought to affect 1 in 30 Americans of Caucasian decent. 

As with other diseases or causes, CF was given the color Purple. Cystic Fibrosis awareness wristbands can be customized to fit any occasion and can be produced in any style.  Most common are purple silicone wristbands decorated with a ribbon and a message of hope, support or encouragement.  Also, these CF awareness silicone wristbands can also be made in remembrance of someone who has lost their battle.

Silicone wristbands make a great way to bring awareness to this cause because they are easily worn and make great conversation starters but also allow others to know you support a most worthy cause. Silicone wristbands are an economical product which can easily be used as a fundraiser to offset medical costs for an individual or to be donated to a national organization.  The best part of using purple silicone wristbands as a fundraiser, upon receiving a donation you can turn around and give the patron something tangible which will allow the wearer show their support for Cystic Fibrosis.

Laser Made Wristbands Vs. Debossed Wristbands

Often times the phone will ring and someone is seeking to create awesome wristbands after looking through www.wristbands.net and finding our wristband creator there is always some confusion about laser made versus debossed.  Looking through the creator can be daunting however we are here to clarify. Laser made and debossed while on the surface look the same, the harsh cold truth is they are not really the same.
Typically, laser made silicone wristbands take us an estimated 3-5 days to produce. Located in Houston, Texas our experienced staff take a blank silicone wristband and place it in a laser (hence laser made). The laser then cuts your custom message and art work into the silicone wristband. Text therefore will appear as the same color as the wristband.

Debossed while may look the same its not! In the debossed wristbands these are manufactured using a steel mold. A steel mold is cast with your custom message including artwork and then the silicone is pressed into the mold and BAM! Your wristband is ready to be worn. Debossed silicone wristbands typically take 10 business days to produce because of the process we take to ensure the best quality and best looking wristband.  Therefore your message and artwork will look deep and smooth on the wristband.

Both styles the message is sunken into the wristband, the devil is in the detail.  With debossed the production time is typically longer yet produces a elegant looking message; however, in the laser made the message is also sunken yet these are typically faster to produce and sometimes a bit more economical . Ultimately the choice and decision is yours. If time is of the essence laser made can be the difference between something and nothing. Any size, shape, or color… laser made and debossed will meet your needs.  Visit our wristband creator and get started today on your debossed or laser made wristbands.

Mosquito Repellent Wristbands in April

If the saying is true that April Showers brings May flowers and we’ve all heard the old adage; however what the adage fails to mention is that April showers also brings pesky mosquitos. Parents already know that those sunny weekends watching your little one play soccer or baseball can be a joyful experience but also means lathering not only your little slugger or goal maker but also oneself with greasy spray on or lotion style bug repellant. There has to be an easier way. In fact there is.  Mosquito repellent silicone wristbands can be the answer to your frustrations of not wanting to hold still or smell much less having to reapply as your little one sweats all that protection away.
Mosquito Repellent wristbands are a great way to keep those biters off of your little one while they play and to keep them off of you as you cheer them on from the stands or sidelines. These silicone  wristbands comes with citronella square which allows them to keep the biters away and saves the headaches we all know accompanies the application of a repellant. The citronella oil lasts up to 6 hours and does not leave your little player feeling sticky or oily. Citronella is natural oil and is not toxic to the environment like other products that may contain DEET. These silicone wristbands can be customized with your athletes’ team name and can be made in their team colors. Each player could have their own and be used by cheering fans and spectators as well. The silicone mosquito repellent wristbands can be used by the team organization as a fundraiser and as a way to build team spirit.

Beyond the playing field these useful wristbands can be used by outdoors enthusiasts seeking refuge from a hectic weekly schedule, taking these types of bands would reduce the amount of “stuff” one needs to take to get away. You simply puncture the citronella reservoir as you get to your outdoor destination and enjoy 6 full hours of protection.  Visit our wristband creator and customize your very own silicone mosquito repellent wristband.

Rubber Awareness Bracelets in Braille

Custom Silicone Wristband in Braille


Regularly we are asked to create wristbands for a special event or someone battling a disease. Loved ones contact us for bracelets honoring battles with cancer or simply to honor the memory of one’s passing. We are privileged to manufacture and be a part of these. It is our way of remembering our blessings and reminding us what is important in life.


Wristbands.net is proud to announce custom silicone wristbands in Braille text for the visually impaired. Using our embossed technique, we are able to create unique message for clients with visual impairments. Embossing allows message text to be raised above the surface of the bracelets.

Silicone wristbands have always been synonymous with building awareness. You can just look around and see this with the popularity of the yellow LIVESTRONG wristband and the pink breast cancer awareness bracelets. It never ceases to amaze us how many wristbands you see every day. Each wristband, whether yellow, pink, or lavender has a special meaning to its owner. Whether it’s to commemorate an achievement or honor a memory.

Wristband colors bring powerful messages. Yellow is synonymous with Lance Armstrong and his cancer awareness group, and pink is for breast cancer. But orange, purple, red and countless more symbolize and spread awareness too. We have decided to list a few awareness wristband colors for you to not only highlight the cause, but clarify meaning. A complete list may be found on Wristbands.net Uses/Ideas page as well.


Let others know you support a cause. Show your support and start building awareness in others; whatever color it may be and now in the Braille alphabet!
