PDC Announces New Silicone Wristbands to Promote National Breast Cancer Awareness Month

Valencia, CA (Sep. 4, 2013) PDC, the global leader of innovative identification solutions, has launched a new line of pink silicone breast cancer awareness wristbands adorned with ribbon symbols and the uplifting phrase, “Hope, Strength, Courage,” to promote National Breast Cancer Awareness month in October. According to the U.S. Breast Cancer Statistics, one in eight women will develop breast cancer over the course of a lifetime.

“PDC’s Breast Cancer Awareness Wristbands are a small way that people can show their support for the mothers, sisters, aunts, daughters, and friends who are bravely battling breast cancer,” said Edwin Baljeu, Sales and Marketing Manager for PDC. “They serve as a symbol of hope and are a positive conversation starter that helps people come together and support a greater cause.”

PDC’s Breast Cancer Awareness Wristbands provide a simple solution for fundraising and special events. Non-profits, support groups, sports teams, and other groups can sell the wristbands for a set amount of funds and donate the money to a charity, such as the National Breast Cancer Coalition, Susan G. Komen for the Cure, or another charitable organization of choice.

Available in packs of 100, the rewearable wristbands are manufactured from 100% pink silicone and are durable enough to be worn during the entire month-long observance. The soft and comfortable wristbands are available in both adult (8”) and child (7”) sizes. The wristbands are in stock and ready to ship the next business day after ordering. The ribbon icons and inspirational “Hope, Strength, Courage” slogan are debossed into the wristbands’ surface and filled with white ink—making the message clear, noticeable and long lasting.

In addition to silicone, PDC offers non-transferable Breast Cancer Awareness Wristbands made from sturdy plastic and lightweight Tyvek^®. These pink wristbands are available in a variety of patterns, such as ribbon icons, specially designed for Breast Cancer Awareness month.
