News Create Uses for Tyvek Wristbands

July 19th, 2017

While you might be used to wearing a tyvek wristband around your wrist for an event or during a concert, but these hard-wearing little wonders are ideal for so many different purposes. Their tamper-proof nature and strong design means that once they are attached to something, they aren’t going to just fall off or get damaged. They’re also waterproof, which is ideal for sporting events as it means that no matter how sweaty someone gets, their tyvek wristband isn’t going to disintegrate. Here are five great ways you can use Tyvek wristbands, other than event ID.

In The Garden

The bright colours and hard-wearing qualities make tyvek wristbands ideal for identifying your plants in the garden. Simply write the name of the plant on the wristband using a permanent marker and then wrap it around the plant stick. As the plant grows and it becomes easier to identify, you can simply cut the wristband off. If you sell plants, this is also a great way to put prices on your stock or mark which ones have been sold.

For Dog Breeders

When a new litter of puppies arrive, it’s important that you can identify each one. You can use tyvek wristbands as whelping collars to help aid in identification. Unlike the velcro versions, Tyvek wristbands can be written on, so you can scribble down the pups individual birth weight or other special notes.

Identify Your Suitcase

If you’re forever stressing at the airport because your suitcase looks like everyone else’s, a simple wristband could take the stress out of waiting for your case at the luggage carousel. Simply wrap a brightly colours Tyvek wristband around the handle of your suitcase before you check it in. Unless someone on the flight has the exact same idea as you, then you’ll easily be able to spot your case on the carousel.

Child ID

Any parent will tell you that taking children to a crowded place can be incredibly stressful. The fear that they will get lost in the crowd or wander off never leaves your mind. If the worst should happen, it’s important that you can quickly and easily be reunited with your child. If you’re heading to the beach or a water park and worry about your child losing their ID bracelet, a Tyvek wristband will give you peace of mind. Simply write an emergency contact number on the wristband and you can rest assured the wristband won’t come off all day.
