Choosing The Best Mug Style
Selecting a mug to represent your brand can be a fun process. Our guide offers a quick view of some of the most popular styles that can be printed with your logo.
Choosing a Design
Printing a promotional mug with your brand is easy. Is your custom design going to be one-sided or two-sided? Will your logo be simplified or printed in full color?
Manufacturing Drinkware
Promotional drinkware normally takes ten days or less to produce, even in larger quantities. Larger quantity orders sometimes take a little longer if you order a sample before production.
Customizing Mugs & Glassware
We do the best customizing mugs and glassware, starting by selecting the type of mug you would like to add your logo to. Once you have selected and decided on your final art design, our factory will use the best imprint method for transferring your artwork permanently to your customized drinkware.
What Are The Print Methods Used to Customize Drinkware?
1. Sublimation prints use special ink and transfer medium and then are applied with both pressure and heat to directly transfer the ink to a mug.
2. Etching and engraving are used on various surfaces, including wine glasses, coffee cups, shot glasses, pint glasses, beer steins, and water bottles. This works when an acidic or abrasive substance is placed on the glass, which in turn causes the surface of the glass to become rough due to these substances' ability to remove extremely small areas of the glass. Glass etching adds a higher perceived value and style to glassware.
3. Pad Printing is a process of transferring ink from an image on the plate to 3D silicone pads that pick it up and drop it onto the surface of custom drinkware.
4. Screen printing a mug or promotional cups is an imprint method commonly used for customizing apparel and printing logos on t-shirts. This printing method takes your design and then burns it into fine mesh screens representing each color in the art. Every ink color will be added to its matching screen, and once this process is completed, all personalized screens will be layered together to reproduce the initial logo. This process works on most promotional drinkware, sports bottles, and personalized travel mugs.
Custom Sublimation Glassware
With the latest technology, we can create a photo-realistic design tightly registered and full-wrapped in color. The vibrant multicolor print will make your brand stand out from other companies.

Ceramic Mugs
Ceramic Coffee Mugs are a fantastic material choice because this material is resistant to high temperatures, doesn't retain smells, and is easy to clean. They are durable and great for a promotional product that will last long, with your brand standing out with every use.
Stainless Steel Travel Mugs
Custom travel mugs keep hot drinks hot and cold drinks cold for hours on end; this material is super popular. If you're considering choosing stainless steel as the preferred material for your custom drinkware, laser engraving tends to be a popular choice for adding your logo.
Custom Glassware
Glassware comes in various thicknesses, making it important to know how thick a glass mug is before committing. While it doesn't happen very often, the last thing you want is for your glass to break. Laser engraving is one of the more popular print methods to place your business brand on glassware.
Copper Mugs
Since copper tends to be a great thermal conductor, copper mugs are preferred when drinking icy cold drinks, which include alcoholic drinks. This material is even known to support one's overall health, making this what some can call a healthy material. Due to copper's versatility, we can use the screen print, pad print, or digital print method in this style.

Your brand is displayed as you sip your morning tea or coffee from this custom Ombre ceramic mug. The dark glaze gradually fades to light, turning an ordinary cup into something unique and memorable! Deep etching your logo is our favorite way of adding your brand to a custom mug.
