Printing methods that match your artwork
-
🎯 Sublimation — best for photographs, gradients, and detailed illustrations with continuous tones and minimal banding.
-
🖨️ Silk-screen — the value leader for 1–3 Pantone spot colors; bold opacity and crisp edges.
-
🧩 Heat-transfer decals — precise registration for fine text, wrap badges, or multi-color vector art.
Artwork handoff: Provide AI/PDF (outlined) or 300-dpi PSD, plus Pantone references for solids. We’ll return a digital proof; pre-production samples can validate color and placement before you commit to volume.
For process tips (paper choice, dwell times, ICC hints) and blank SKUs, see Ceramic Sublimation Mugs Manufacturers.
Built for real service
-
☕ Heat retention: High-fired bodies keep beverages warmer than lightweight alternatives.
-
🧼 Easy care: Kiln glazed surfaces resist staining; commercial wash compatible (follow detergent guidelines).
-
🧲 Consistency: Tight glaze batching controls white point and gloss; AQL inspections stabilize print alignment across replenishments.
-
📦 Stack smart: Straight walls and controlled taper improve stackability for bar workflows and banqueting.
Sizing & kitting ideas
-
12oz suits drip coffee, flat whites, and compact gift sets.
-
14oz targets latte/iced programs and “work-from-home” bundles.
Many buyers pair a 12oz and 14oz into a two-pack, adding an inner-rim quote or bottom mark to elevate perceived value. For hospitality, casepacks can mix both sizes under one PO to simplify replenishment.

Program planning: timelines & drivers of cost
-
Sampling: ~5–10 working days after artwork approval
-
Production: ~20–35 days depending on coverage, finish, and quantity
-
MOQ guidance: 500–1,000 pcs per design/color for standard glazes; combined color splits may be possible with a shared total
Primary cost drivers: print method (screen/decal/sublimation), coverage (front hit vs. full wrap), glaze choice (gloss vs. soft-matte), body color (Pantone customs), packaging (bulk vs. gift), and any third-party compliance testing or retail labeling.
How to brief us clearly
Share target size (12oz/14oz), glaze (gloss or soft-matte), body color (standard or Pantone), logo positions (front, wrap, inner rim, bottom mark), expected wholesale volumes, packaging preference, and ship-to region. If you’re planning seasonal drops or multiple SKUs, a 6–12-month forecast helps us stage materials and keep color consistent across reorders.

Care & Use (for end customers)
