Question 1

Why should I buy Action Awards' ribbons?

Accepted Answer

Since 1984, Action Awards has handcrafted exceptional award ribbons with details you can see—tight rosette pleating, balanced streamer placement, and crisp, consistent foil printing. Our rosette ribbons aren’t just beautiful; they’re sturdy and made to last. Because every ribbon is produced in-house, we maintain strict quality control from start to finish. To order, email us your preferred ribbon style—our team can help you choose streamer lengths, colors, and upgrades to create ribbons that elevate your event’s presentation.

Question 2

What information do you need to start a ribbon order?

Accepted Answer

To get started, we’ll need the award ribbon style(s) you’re interested in, quantity of each ribbon, the text you’d like printed, and any artwork or logos for the center button. If you’re not sure about colors, streamer lengths, upgrades, or center button options, we’re happy to guide you through our choices. We’ll also need your shipping address to confirm delivery details.

Question 3

What is your turnaround time, and do you offer rush orders?

Accepted Answer

Our current turnaround time is 4-6 weeks. In the Summer our lead time may be 6-8 weeks. If you need your ribbons sooner, we offer rush production with estimated timelines of 2–4 weeks, depending on your order size and current production schedule. Rush orders include an additional 10%–20% charge, based on the turnaround needed and the scope of the order.

Question 4

Do you provide a proof before production?

Accepted Answer

Yes. We send a digital proof showing your ribbon styles in the color combinations you choose. Your proof includes all order details—printed text, quantity, streamer length, upgrades, artwork placement, and pricing—so you can review everything clearly before we begin production.

Question 5

Do you keep my ribbon design on file?

Accepted Answer

Yes. We keep your ribbon design on file for future reorders, and many customers reorder the same styles for years. Reordering is simple—just email the quantities and placing levels you need (for example: “1,000 first, 700 second, 1,200 third—same style as before”), and we’ll send a proof for approval before production.
