Why Smart Businesses Use Personalised Ribbon for Christmas Packaging

Christmas packaging has become much more than simply wrapping a gift. For businesses, it is another opportunity to reinforce your branding, thank customers and create a presentation that feels considered from the moment it arrives.

Here at Personalised Printed Ribbons, we have been printing branded ribbon in Essex since 2007. Christmas 2026 will be our 20th Christmas helping businesses create personalised ribbon for gifts, hampers, retail packaging, events and seasonal campaigns.

If you are planning festive packaging now, explore our personalised Christmas ribbon for branded gifts, hampers, baubles, metallic printing and full-colour designs.

Why Branded Christmas Ribbon Makes a Difference

Businesses spend a great deal of time getting their products, branding and marketing right, but packaging is sometimes treated as an afterthought.

Personalised ribbon gives you an easy way to carry your branding right through to the final presentation. Instead of finishing a gift box or hamper with plain ribbon, you can add your company logo, business name, Christmas message or a combination of all three.

Popular Christmas ribbon designs include:

• Your company logo + Merry Christmas
• Season’s Greetings from your business
• Thank You for Your Support
• Your logo repeated along the ribbon
• A bespoke festive message designed around your branding

It is a relatively small detail, but one that can make a standard gift or hamper feel much more personal and professionally finished.

Christmas Hamper Ribbon

Hampers are one of the most popular uses for personalised Christmas ribbon, particularly for businesses sending gifts to customers, staff, suppliers or event guests.

Printed ribbon can transform a simple hamper box or basket into branded Christmas packaging without requiring completely bespoke boxes or containers.

For smaller gift boxes and hampers, 15mm and 25mm ribbon are popular choices. For larger hampers and premium presentation boxes, 38mm and 48mm ribbon create more impact.

You can coordinate the ribbon with your own branding or choose a traditional festive combination such as forest green and white, burgundy and metallic gold, navy and gold or red and white.

See more ideas on our Christmas hamper ribbon page.

Corporate Christmas Gifts

Corporate gifting can sometimes feel generic, particularly when the same boxes and hampers are being used by many different businesses.

Adding personalised ribbon immediately gives the presentation your own identity. Your ribbon can carry your logo, Christmas greeting or a simple thank-you message, helping the recipient recognise who the gift is from before it has even been opened.

This works particularly well for customer gifts, staff presents, launch events, hospitality gifting, PR campaigns and Christmas deliveries.

Christmas Baubles & Small Gifts

Narrow personalised ribbon is also ideal for Christmas baubles, decorations, tags and smaller gifts.

Our 7mm printed ribbon and 10mm ribbon are narrow enough for hanging decorations while still allowing a company name, short message or logo to be printed.

Charities, schools, businesses and event organisers can also use narrow branded ribbon to create personalised decorations or keepsakes.

Single-Colour Christmas Ribbon

Single-colour printing remains one of our most popular options because it creates a clean, clear finish and works particularly well for repeated logos and messages.

Dark ribbon colours with white print are a modern choice for Christmas packaging, while lighter ribbon can be printed with darker colours to complement your branding.

We offer a wide choice of satin ribbon colours and print colours, allowing you to create a combination that works with both your business identity and your festive packaging.

Metallic Gold & Silver Christmas Ribbon

Metallic printing is particularly popular at Christmas. Gold print works beautifully on burgundy, bottle green, navy, black and many other darker ribbon colours, while metallic silver is a strong choice for white, blue and cooler festive colour schemes.

Metallic print can be used for your logo, wording or a repeating Christmas message.

Take a look at our metallic printed ribbon if you would like gold or silver branding for your Christmas packaging.

Full-Colour Christmas Ribbon

Some branding simply cannot be reproduced effectively using one print colour.

Our full-colour ribbon is ideal for multicoloured logos, gradients, detailed illustrations, photographs and more complex festive artwork.

Full-colour printing can also be useful when maintaining your normal brand colours is particularly important. We can work from Pantone®, CMYK, HEX or RGB references and produce the closest achievable colour match.

How We Print Personalised Ribbon

Different designs need different printing methods, and we can help you choose the most suitable option for Your Ribbon.

Single-Colour Printing

Our in-house single-colour printing is ideal for logos, names, messages and repeated designs. We offer a wide choice of matt and metallic print colours across many satin ribbon widths.

Full-Colour Printing

For multicoloured logos, detailed artwork and more complex designs, our full-colour printing service gives you much greater flexibility and can reproduce far more detail than a single-colour print.

Specialist Ribbon Projects

If your Christmas project needs an unusual ribbon width, colour, finish or volume, tell us what you are trying to achieve. We work with a number of specialist manufacturers and can often help with bespoke requirements.

More Sustainable Christmas Packaging

Businesses are increasingly considering the materials used in their packaging as well as how it looks.

Our sustainable ribbon range includes options such as recycled satin, recycled grosgrain, biodegradable acetate satin and paper raffia, giving you alternatives for projects where material choice is particularly important.

Don’t Leave Your Christmas Ribbon Too Late

We start receiving Christmas packaging enquiries well before December, particularly for branded hampers, corporate gifts and larger seasonal projects.

If you know you will need ribbon for Christmas, ordering earlier gives you more time to finalise colours, artwork and quantities without the pressure of a last-minute festive deadline.

Selected personalised satin ribbons are available on our next-working-day service, subject to stock and artwork approval, but larger and more specialist projects naturally need more time.
