Technology Upgrade Notification

As part of our commitment to uphold our company values; planning success for generations to come, delivering accuracy with every order, and operating with honesty and integrity, National Band & Tag is excited to announce that we will be launching a new computer order entry system in early 2018. This new computer system will allow us to serve our customers faster, more efficiently and effectively.

International Shipping

Did you know we can ship your bands and tags anywhere in the world? Currently NB&T ships to 100 of the 196 countries in the world. All our tags ship from our location in Newport, Kentucky, USA.

How it works: Using your shipping address, we get shipping quotes from UPS, FedEx, and DHL, and then choose the best price for you. If you have an account or a 3rd party shipper that you prefer to use, we can use them instead.

To celebrate all the countries we ship to, we hung up flags in our office! Which country will be the next to be added to our wall?

Promote your Business with Custom Leg Bands

We can manufacture custom Butt-End bands to help promote your business, whether that be a lanyard maker, duck call maker, electrical application or any other type of business.

The first step is to determine what size band you will need, measure the diameter of the object you are trying to band (lanyard, wire, duck call, etc.).

After determining which size band you need, you can pick your color and decide what you want stamped on the bands. We can stamp your name, website, phone number, logo, etc.

How to Close a Butt-End Band:

  1. Place the opened band around the lanyard, duck call, mount, etc.
  2. While using the correct size applicator, make sure to fit the band into the lower hole of the applicator.
  3. Squeeze the applicator shut to correctly seal the band.

(If the band does not shut all the way on the first time, rotate the band in the applicator and squeeze the applicator again. Continue rotating the band and squeezing the applicator until it is completely shut.)
