FAQ

Why should we use competition paper numbers during athletics events?

Why are there different sizes of competition paper numbers?

The size of competition paper numbers is typically based on the specific needs and requirements of the event and the athletes participating in it. Some factors that may influence the size of a bib number include the size of the athlete, the type of clothing they will be wearing, and the specific requirements of the event.

What are the advantages of paper bib numbers as opposed to synthetic bib numbers?

Paper bib numbers are disposable and can be easily discarded after an event, which can be more convenient and environmentally friendly than having to clean and store reusable synthetic bib numbers. In addition, paper bib numbers are generally less expensive than synthetic bib numbers.
