Promotional ceramics is one of the most frequently used forms of advertising. Due to their durability and price, promotional mugs are considered the most sought after advertising gadgets. A mug with a print, a cup, a tankard, a glass, and even the entire set are great as an advertising gift handed out during promotions, tastings or trade fairs.
Many companies use promotional mugs and cups to showcase their image. Our offer includes a wide selection of promotional ceramics, including promotional mugs, promotional cups, Magic Mugs, tankards and sets. We can put any print on the promotional mugs, e.g. your company logo, advertising slogan, company address details and others. The advertising print can be done in one or two or three colours or full colour.
We can print everything in our offer of promotional ceramics using any of the following various techniques:
- Direct Print is the cheapest method of printing on promotional ceramics. One of the main limitations of this method is the ability to only print in full colour - without half-tone colours.
- Transfer Print is the most durable technique for printing promotional mugs. Unfortunately, this method is also the most expensive method.
- Sublimation is the method that we most often use to print photos on promotional ceramics.
- Sensitive Touch is a method of printing on mugs by etching with a sandblasting device.
- Magic Mug is a technique where the colour of a promotional mug changes when exposed to heat. In this way, we see a magical effect with the appearance of an advertising print.
Please familiarise yourself with our offer regarding promotional ceramics. We will answer all your questions about printing mugs.
