First, there is a solid color ribbon type. This is good for adding simplicity to running medals. Color can be matched with medal color. This type of ribbon can be a solid or striped ribbon. If you want to go totally simple then you can choose one color and if you want to add more color then striped ribbon is perfect for running medals. It is the perfect ribbon for you if you are on a budget and don’t want any pattern on your ribbon. You can then choose to print the ribbon in one color or two colors.
2) Printing Content or Position
You can put your business slogan or motivational words or event name with anything else. Here, you also have two colors and one color to choose from. This means printing our logo or letters in one or two colors in the woven ribbon. Ribbons can be printed on both sides or one side if desired.

It is known to be a quality ribbon.
5. How Much Does A Custom Sports Medal Cost?
There are many cause affecting the medal cost:
1) Production Area
There are some great medal makers all over China. Guangdong, Zhejiang, and Fujian are known for making excellent custom sports medals in China. If you choose custom sports medals from a manufacturer that has been making running medals for decades, and if they have a large factory with a lot of experienced workers, the prices will be more expensive there compared to a new company that is not yet mature.
Some companies set prices for custom sports medals based on what they think customers are willing to pay. If you want custom sports medals at the best price, the best place to buy the best quality medals at the most affordable price is Dongguan City. The city is located in Guangdong Province.
2) Direct or Indirect Source
You also need to check whether the source of your purchase of custom sports medals is a direct source or an indirect source. If you buy running medals from an indirect source, then you will have to pay a higher fee. If you buy custom sports medals from a direct source, you can save a lot of money.
3) Type of Material
However, the cost of a custom sports medal will depend on the materials used on the medal. Some materials cost more and some materials cost less. More costly materials will be more durable and of better quality for your custom sports medals.
