Want your event to stand out and stay eco-friendly? Plantable seed paper wristbands (a.k.a. wrist bands) are a smart swap for plastic or Tyvek. They work like regular entry bands during your event—and grow into flowers or herbs afterwards. Below is a ready-to-post article you can use on your website.
What is a Plantable Seed Paper Wristband?
A plantable wristband is made from biodegradable seed paper—handmade from post-consumer cotton rag pulp and embedded with live seeds. After the event, guests can plant the band in soil; within weeks, it sprouts into a plant. No plastic, no landfill guilt—just green memories.

Sustainability Impact

Frequently Asked Questions
Q1. Will the band tear easily?
It’s sturdy for day-long wear. Avoid soaking while wearing. For heavy rain or swimming, choose a wider band or keep a few spares at gates.
Q2. Is it safe on skin?
Yes—made from cotton-based paper and water-based inks. People with very sensitive skin should keep it slightly loose.
Q3. Can we print unique QR codes or numbers?
Absolutely. We can add sequential numbering, variable QR/URLs, zone colours, and security slits.
Q4. What seeds are best?
For India, marigold and basil/tulsi germinate reliably year-round. Seasonal mixes are available.
Q5. How should we store the bands?
Keep sealed in a cool, dry place away from sunlight. Use within 6–8 months for best germination.
