What is the difference between the Military Thin Ribbons on the market and the magnetic option they offer?

While there are a few different companies that make military ribbons rack builder websites and advertise a military thin ribbon rack and a magnetic military ribbon rack, it seems that they are all just the same one piece of noninterchangeable ribbon that is affixed to a clear plastic backing.

What makes Pin-iT’s Magic Rack- Magnetic Thin Ribbons stand out from the competitors is that Pin-iT’s magnetic thin ribbons are just that, MAGNETIC! While the competitors advertise they have a magnetic military ribbon rack, they are only speaking of the little magnets glued to the back of the clear plastic ribbon bar that holds the mounted ribbons onto the service members' uniform shirts or jackets. With Pin-iT’s magnetic ribbon rack, each ribbon you order whether it is an armed forces service medal ribbon or the New DHS Outstanding Unit Award with Gold Frame are individual magnets that can be easily updated much like a traditional slide-on ribbon that you are typically issued by your unit Commands.

Just like a traditional slide-on ribbon, Pin-iT’s magnetic thin ribbons can be purchased one at a time and placed on a separate ribbon bar. Unlike the competitors, Pin-iT’s magnetic thin ribbons are not glued onto a clear piece of plastic. Each ribbon rack whether Army, Navy or any other military service branch, is a flat magnetic ribbon bar made of stainless steel that military medals attach to. This helps the service member easily update their military uniform and awards by only purchasing the thin ribbons and awards they need instead of having to send the entire mounted ribbon rack back to the company for updates. Just like Pin-iT’s magnetic thin ribbons, when updating a ribbon bar, all you need to do is order a new one! Say you have a 10-ribbon rack and need to upgrade to an 11-ribbon rack, just select the size ribbon bar you need (11) and the magnetic thin ribbon you need, and Pin-iT will ship it to you. No need for you to send your military thin ribbon rack back to Pin-iT.

So, when building your rack, there are a few military ribbons rack builder websites to choose from but only one that offers truly mounted ribbons that are ALL Magnetic. You can get your Magic Rack at - www.pinitcard.com.
