Common questions

Cardboard or foam waving hands?

Cardboard, when budget and logistics matter. The flat construction cuts both production and freight cost against volumetric foam, and it arrives flat-packed instead of filling a warehouse.

Will they hold up to a whole match of waving?

They are die-cut from heavy FSC-certified coated offset paper chosen specifically for rigidity — stiff enough for vigorous waving, and shaped for a secure grip.

Can we print full colour to the edge?

Offset CMYK or PMS spot colours, edge to edge across the whole hand shape. That large printed surface is what draws broadcast camera attention.
