Another bracelet color idea can be based on identificaiton purposes. Silicone is like any other wristband style in that the purpose is to identifysomethingabout the person wearing the band. Therefore, conveying important information or instructions via colored silicone wristbands is an easy and effective practice. For example, during the COVID-19 pandemic, green, yellow, and red silicone bracelets helped to communicate social distancing preferences, as well as serve as visual indicators for individual comfort levels. Inspired from the colors used in traffic lights, green, red, and yellow were determined to be good bracelet colors since the meaning behind each coincides with a universally-accepted color code. Each band color stood for a different preference:
- Green (i.e. ‘Go’) would typically indicate that person is ok with being approached at shorter distances (6” or less) and might even welcome direct contact like handshakes or hugs
- Yellow (i.e. ‘Caution’) would typically indicate that person is exercising caution and minimal direct contact is preferred (but some indirect contact such as elbow bumps or air high-fives may be appropriate)
- Red (i.e. ‘Stop’) would typically indicate that person should not be approached or touched at any distance (6” or more of space), no exceptions
Color-coded silicone bracelets can be used to signify any aspect or piece of information the wearer wishes to make visible/known to others. So long as the coloring “system” is understood by the intended audience, then the bracelet fulfills its purpose. An example of this is silicone ‘salvation’ bracelets. Also referred to as ‘wordless’ bracelets, these are used as evangelism teaching tools and reminders to faithfully seek God. Representing different key aspects of the Christian gospel beliefs, the colors of faith bracelet meanings include:
- Black for sin
- Red for blood
- Blue for baptism
- White for cleansing
- Green for growth
- Yellow for Heaven
- Purple for worship
