Which Sustainable Ribbon Is Right for You?
Not all sustainable ribbons are made in the same way. Our range includes several different materials, allowing you to choose the option that best suits your packaging, presentation and environmental requirements.
Recycled ribbon includes styles manufactured using recycled polyester yarn, including material produced from recycled plastic bottles. These ribbons provide the look and feel customers expect from high-quality ribbon while making use of existing material.
Acetate satin ribbon is manufactured from cellulose derived from wood pulp and provides an alternative to conventional polyester satin. It has a slightly firmer feel and works particularly well for gift wrapping, retail packaging and decorative bows.
Paper and raffia-style ribbons provide another option for natural-looking gift wrapping and packaging, particularly where a traditional satin finish is not required.
Some products within the collection may be recycled, recyclable or biodegradable, depending on the material. Please check the individual product information for the specific environmental properties of each ribbon.
Printed Sustainable Ribbon for Businesses
Our sustainable range is not limited to plain ribbon. Selected styles can be custom printed with your logo, branding or promotional message, making them suitable for retailers, gift companies, beauty brands, charities, event organisers and businesses looking to combine branded packaging with a more considered choice of material.
Personalised Printed Ribbons has been printing ribbon and creating bespoke bows since 2007. Our team can prepare your artwork and provide a visual proof before production, helping you choose a ribbon and print combination that works for your brand.
Frequently Asked Questions About Sustainable Ribbons
There is no single type of sustainable ribbon. Our range includes ribbons made using recycled polyester, recycled plastic bottles, cellulose derived from wood pulp and paper-based materials. Each has different environmental properties, so we recommend checking the individual product information when choosing the most appropriate ribbon for your requirements.
Our recycled ribbon range includes styles manufactured using recycled polyester yarn, including yarn produced from recycled plastic bottles. The exact composition varies between products, so please see the individual product page for material information.
These terms describe different things. Recycled ribbon contains material that has previously been used and reprocessed. Recyclable ribbon can potentially be processed for use again where suitable recycling facilities exist. Biodegradable materials can break down through natural processes under appropriate conditions.
