• Stock Ribbons: no set-up costs.
• Custom Ribbons: $9.50 set-up fee for each unique ribbon layout.

The $9.50 set-up fee applies when a ribbon design has any of the following changed from one layout to the next:

• Ribbon text
• Ribbon color
• Imprint color

Using foils and a heat transfer process, your design is hot-stamped directly onto a ribbon with a polymer or metal die.

A polymer die provides a less expensive way of imprinting simple designs; however, a metal die will always create a better imprint due to its ability to transfer heat more effectively and its stronger composition.

While we recommend a metal die for every imprinting job, there are four instances it is absolutely required:

• When your design has a logo
• When your design has fine details or excessive text
• Black or white imprinting
• Quantities of 1,000 for each unique layout

The cost of a metal die is $30.00 per unique ribbon layout (includes the $9.50 set-up fee) and will add an additional 2 business days to the total production time.

The standard production time for custom ribbons is 2 business days. Factors such as the total number of titles/layouts and the total quantity may add additional days to the production process. For a complete list of production time combinations, please click here.
