FotoFlex™ is the world’s first stretchable wristband that uses four-color imprinting of digital graphics, allowing you to turn your rubber wristband into a mini-billboard for maximum promotional effect. Each wristband is made to order and guarantees durable crisp images that make for a highly visible product. The product is unique in that it cracks when stretched, but it does not flake and will return to near photo quality when relaxed.
These wristbands are custom printed to exact specifications including faces, event logos, sponsors’ logos, dates, special offers, etc. for a truly unique wristband that boosts your brand. They can also be printed with QR coding and other data options for enhanced interactivity with the wearer.

ns accePtaBle art for all Products
excluding fotoflex WristBands:The computer used in our Graphic Department is Macintosh. Macintosh programs used by the Print Department: • Adobe Photoshop CS5 • Adobe Illustrator CS5
Our first preference is an Illustrator EPS file with text converted to outlines. Otherwise, you may send a high resolution (300+ dpi) tiff file.
Artwork can be placed on our FTP site or sent on a disk, if files are larger than 5 MB. Word docu-ments, faxed artwork, publisher files or art pulled from a website cannot be accepted – a quality print begins with quality artwork.
Customer Logos:The manufacturer is not responsible for any reproduction of unauthorized, trademarked or copyrighted logos. Any damages incurred as a result of unauthorized use will be the responsibil-ity of the party supplying artwork.
technical sPecificationsRubber is a natural product. Therefore slight variations in color and texture are to be expected and are not considered to be a defect. Rub-ber tends to stretch to some degree during the printing and cutting process, therefore, not all imprints will be perfectly centered.
