Are Biodegradable Wristbands strong?

Yes, Biodegradable Wristbands are very strong and cannot be removed or transferred once they are put on the wrist. They can be worn for up to 48 hours without any serious wear and tear. The product is very similar in terms of look and feel to the tyvek bands – and they are similarly strong too. The only drawback they have is that on contact with water they are likely to degrade and loose strength and structure. 

Are the wristbands Biodegradable?

Yes our wristbands are biodegradable under the same conditions as paper is, because it is made up of just paper. There are no coatings or other materials included in the production method. So the product is readily compostable. The best conditions are wet, moist and damp and this website has some useful information on how paper wristbands can biodegrade.

Can they be recycled?

Yes, Biodegradable Wristbands can be recycled at your local facility and can be included with other paper or cardboard items. The product is made from just paper, meaning it can be recycled in the same way that similar products are. Speak to your local provider about any specific requirements they may have in ensuring that the wristbands can be recycled after they have been used.

• Product Description and Applications
  Biodegradable Wristbands are a durable alternative to tyvek wristbands – however they do not include any plastic. They are made from high strength paper material that is fully recyclable and also bio degradable. Under the correct conditions (those similar to paper) it is also compostable. They are the most earth friendly wristbands available on the market currently and we are very proud to launch this product after months of developement.

• Our Biodegradable wristbands are available in a wide variety of colours including our most popular colours such as neon yellow, neon green, neon orange, white and red. We will add additional colours in the near future.
• As the product development continues we will shortly offer the compostable wristbands in a litter-free format. This means that the detachable tab which covers the adhesive area will stick to the wristband and not fly away.
• Our Biodegradable Wristbands are flood coloured and pre-printed with sequential numbers for added security and peace of mind for all customers. 
• This product is available in both plain and printed versions, allowing customers to add their logo, text or other details as required. The print sets into the paper material and is very sharp with our specialised print method. The wristband colour and any print on the wristband is long lasting and will remain clearly visible for as long as the wristband is worn under normal conditions.

  We recommend keeping this product out of direct sunlight and at room temperatures of about 20°C for long lasting effects. Prolonged storage at higher or lower temperatures – or direct sunlight for a long period of time – may affect the shelf-life of this
  product.
• On contact with water or dampness this product will quickly loose its structure and the ink will fade. Biodegradable Wristbands are to be avoided in areas where water is likely to be present.

Please note that Biodegradable Wristbands in Ireland are not suitable for use in or around water. The product is made from sustainable paper material and therefore does not have the same waterproof characteristics as the standard tyvek wristbands. Biodegradable Wristbands can be worn for up to 48 hours in dry conditions and can withstand normal wear and tear. However it is important to note that the band will loose some of its structure on contact with water. The product is a suitable alternative for nightclubs, schools, sports stadia, tours and other instances where it is unlikely to be in contact with water.
