How to use / When it’s useful

Quick answer: use the mounted ribbon on duty uniforms or choose loose ribbon for tailoring, display, or collector presentation. Select the holder type (clamp or screws) that matches your uniform or display plate.

In most cases, authorised Polizia Locale personnel will order the mounted ribbon in 37 mm to match standard duty ribbon bars. For collectors or restorers, loose ribbon allows cutting to length and custom assembly on multi-ribbon metal bases.
