Plastic Mugs for Light and Robust Applications
Plastic mugs impress with their light weight, shatter resistance and economical pricing. This makes them ideally suited for everyday use, outdoor settings, or as a cost-conscious promotional item in larger quantities.
What makes plastic mugs suitable for sublimation printing?
Plastic mugs for sublimation printing come with a specially coated white surface that reliably absorbs sublimation ink. A resilient material quality is decisive for a shatterproof and long-lasting product.
The typical use of plastic mugs is clearly structured: the motif is printed onto sublimation paper and positioned precisely around the plastic mug. The mug is printed in the mug press using a matching heating wrap. An optional reinforcement element helps with even pressing. Once cooled, a vivid, dishwasher-safe motif appears. Plastic mugs are thus an ideal complement to your mug press and a practical alternative to our ceramic mugs.
Why plastic mugs are essential
Plastic mugs play an important role for economical and shatterproof use. The key benefits include:
- Shatter resistance: Plastic withstands everyday use significantly more robustly than ceramic or glass
- Light weight: Ideal for mobile use on the go or outdoors
- Economical entry price: Especially attractive for larger quantities and promotional campaigns
- Different versions: From glossy to matte, as well as in various sizes
- Dishwasher-safe: Uncomplicated everyday cleaning
