If there is a practical gift among promotional gifts, it is personalized mugs , ideal for use, function, price and variety of models, designs and materials.
You may have different reasons for buying promotional mugs, for your own company or as a promotional gift for use at events, fairs and congresses. Being personalized often makes them objects that have great sentimental value for the message they convey or for who gave it to us, and that is why in this post we will give you some advice on how to take care of it so that it remains in the best condition for a long time.
Most common customization techniques for eco-friendly mugs
Giving personalized mugs has become the perfect gift for a multitude of occasions, from Secret Santa, when we want to give romantic messages, or merely promotional ones.
Whatever the reason you want to differentiate your mug with your brand as a corporate gift or with a message, we provide you with some appropriate techniques to personalize mugs that will accompany you in your daily life.
Personalized mugs with laser engraving
Personalising mugs with laser engraving is a very suitable technique for long and short runs. The precision of working with a computer system works for cheap promotional gifts, and with the mugs in question you get a fast, elegant, defined and especially detailed result in prints of coats of arms, photographs or logos that are difficult to achieve with other printing techniques.
This technique does not allow for printing colours, but there are two-colour mugs that erode the top layer to reveal the colour of the deeper layer, creating a cheerful and well-coordinated result.
Personalized mugs with pad printing
Used primarily to personalize cheap promotional gifts, this method allows you to personalize the mug very economically and ensure that logo details with very small details and messages are printed in a spectacular way.
An advantage of this technique is that logos can be printed in one or more colours, but if they are used daily and washed, the personalisation could be damaged.
Personalized mugs with sublimation
This is a digital printing technique in which the printed design is transferred to the mug we want to personalize using heat, but we must keep in mind that the background of the mug must be white; if you sublimate on a colored background, the resulting colors will appear altered.
It is a good option for large prints and company logos, since the engraving limitations are limited to the surface of the merchandising object you want to differentiate.
Screen printed advertising mugs
Screen printing is a repetitive printing technique that involves transferring ink through a thin film. The passage of ink is blocked in the areas where there will be no image, leaving the area free for the ink to pass through and adhere to the mug.
This method allows you to decorate original corporate gifts economically when it comes to large runs, and the drawback is that the colours are limited to four.
How to extend the life of your custom mugs with logo
If you already enjoy that personalized mug that makes you enjoy a good coffee and you want it to last for a very long time in the best conditions, without losing that personalized message that differentiates it from the rest and makes it special, you will have to take into account some tips such as avoiding the use of the dishwasher, hard-bristled scouring pads and strong chemicals that alter the color and quality of prints in which ink is used, this is not the case with laser-engraved corporate gifts,
FIRSTGREEN, the company of personalized ecological and sustainable promotional items, offers you a wide variety of mugs made with preferably eco-friendly materials to add that differentiating value that your brand desires, on which you can engrave the message or logo that makes it special and valuable for someone.
Because caring for the environment, like enjoying a good coffee, generates a gratifying and well-being feeling.
