Silicone wristbands are simple but extraordinary silicone bands that are very effective in raising funds and increasing awareness. Silicone is a material that has been incredibly useful in the past, as it is lightweight, flexible, and strong. This means that it is capable of a wide range of things, including heat-rolling and welding, which make it ideal for working with metals.
Since silicone is also
transparent, these bands can feature raised images or symbols that are printed
directly onto the silicone. Silicone wristbands can then be custom-made and
promoted for any number of reasons-from fundraising to promoting a cause or
even as a fashion statement. There are a few different kinds of silicone wristbands that you can purchase. One type of feature is illuminated,
luminescent silicone, which means that the band will change colors with the
movement of the wearer's wrists.
Other types of bands feature solid silicone material, which will remain solid regardless of how your hands move or what activity is taking place. One particular style features solid-colored silicone, with each color representing one of the causes that you support. For example, if you are supporting breast cancer awareness, you will find a pink bracelet. The most common use for these silicone wristbands is simply to raise money. The wristbands can be designed to have just the amount of money needed for whatever cause is being raised, and simply put a sticker on them saying so.
These wristbands make great road signs, advertisement tags, fundraisers, and even promotional items for businesses, thanks to their low cost and high visibility. Some of the companies that sell these wristbands have no overhead and run solely on membership fees from their customers. Others sell the silicone wristbands at a discounted price, once they have made their sales.
