2. Litho or Transfer Printing

Printing on a ceramic surface is a laborious process – but the result is worth it! The litho or transfer printing method allows for a wide range of colors and features, for example: Hand-painted gradients, tin glaze, foils and layers can be used to create an exciting design. This type of printing is appropriate for creating pieces where you want multiple colors or a smooth finish.

3. Digital Printing

YOUR LOGOS RECEIVE THE HIGHEST QUALITY PRINTING! The technology of digital printing allows you to print on ceramic custom portable mugs, toothbrush holders, and other custom products. This is a method of printing that involves using a printer to create images directly on the coated paper, which is then transferred to the substrate via a water slide transfer. With this method, you receive full-color and permanent images printed on custom mugs.

4. Dye Sublimation Printing

This mug is printed using dye sublimation printing. This printing method uses heat to transfer ink along with organic color dyes to place the chosen image on the mug. The result is a beautifully vibrant picture that lasts longer than normal printing methods. This mug can be put in your dishwasher and microwave to clean, just make sure not to overheat it!

5. Pad Printing

The Pad Printing Imprinted Golf Ball is perfect for imprinting logos on golf balls, but you can use it to etch a picture on other types of mugs. Pad printing gives you the unique freedom and flexibility to imprint your own logos, designs, and messages onto something as diverse as custom mugs.
