Stamp Options For Imprinted Ribbons

All imprinted ribbons are made by transferring metallic or pigment (matte/gloss colored) foils to a ribbon's surface at high temperatures. To do this, a stamp is heated and the ribbon is placed beneath it. The foil is inserted between the two and the stamp presses down, transferring text and images. These stamps are changed for every ribbon title. We offer two options for these stamps: metal and polymer.

We do not recommend mixing stamp types in the same order, as the differences between the two are noticeable. Please note that all stock titles are printed using metal stamps, even if you are also ordering custom titles.

A metal stamp is required in the following cases:

  • Text smaller than 18-point, or long words/phrases with over 20 characters that cannot be split
  • Imprint colors that require a metal stamp
  • Orders with more than 1,000 ribbons per title (ribbon and imprint colors can be mixed)
  • Ribbons featuring a graphic or logo

Polymer Stamps

ribbon stamps made from polymer.

These stamps are great for clear, simple imprints, especially with block text that is 24 points or larger. The corners might be a little rounded, and small details, like the inside of an 'A', may fill in a bit.

Gold and silver imprints are the most popular, but we also offer other colors; check the order page for more options.

  • $14.00 set-up fee per title
  • Production time: 3 to 5 business days
  • Available in small quantities; order as few as one per title


Metal Stamps

ribbon stamps made from metal.

These stamps provide top-quality imprints that capture smaller text and intricate details. The edges and corners are crisp and clean, and the imprint lasts longer, so it's less likely to fade or wear off.

A wider range of imprint colors, including both metallic and pigment options, are available when using a metal stamp.

  • $35.00 set-up fee for each horizontal title, $45.00 for each vertical title
  • Production time: 5 to 7 business days
  • We'll store your stamps for up to 18 months, so reordering the same design is easy
