Tyvek Wristband Printing

Wristbands are used throughout the world, from patients in hospitals to music festivals. Although there are different materials used, Tyvek remains the most common. Tyvek provides a high quality, easily printable surface that can be made via an external printer. Printed Tyvek wristbands can also be produced for cheaper and provide a die-cut adhesive closure that makes them great for specific occasions.

Tyvek wristband printing can save manufacturers a considerable amount of money when compared to the costs of printing on a paper substitute. Our products are 100% made in the USA using DuPont Tyvek which guarantees a comfortable, tamper-proof fit which can be marked with serial numbers or custom labeling to fit your needs.

One of those printers is the Doranix 64 which is specifically designed for Tyvek printing. This means it works perfectly for printed Tyvek wristbands. The ThermaPrint 64 Standard can process wristband sheets up to 6″ in width whereas the Wide can handle sheets up to 10″ wide. Typically, Tyvek material can be printed at 4-8 inches per second. For more information, please refer to our Thermaprint 64 page.

When considering purchasing a Tyvek wristband printer, it’s important to consider the speed at which new labels can be created. In situations where a unique barcode is required or specific information the production time can be much longer.
