Mugs

Ceramic is the core of this category, alongside stoneware and porcelain. The shapes divide into a few familiar groups: classic cylindrical mugs such as the Maia 300 ml and Gaia 340 ml, two-tone designs with a coloured body and white rim or interior, matte finishes like the Matara 280 ml and Matara Nera 300 ml in black, and stackable or space-saving forms such as the Marknad. Larger coffee shapes including the Hemera 370 ml and Thames 350 suit longer drinks, while compact sizes fit espresso and tea service.

Two things guide the choice. The first is finish, because it changes how artwork appears: a glazed gloss body gives bright, sharp colour reproduction, while a matte surface produces a softer, more muted result that suits single-colour marks and monochrome branding. The second is context. A hospitality or canteen rollout benefits from stackable shapes and repeatable sizes, whereas a client gift or a boxed set is better served by a stoneware or porcelain piece with a distinctive shape. Colour range matters as well, since most models offer several body colours and the contrast between body and logo determines legibility.

Print methods for ceramic

Pad print is the standard route for logos in one or a few flat colours, applied to one or both sides of the body. Decal or transfer printing is used when the artwork wraps around the mug, carries photographic detail or needs several colours in register. Handles and rims restrict where artwork can sit, and curved or tapered bodies limit the print height, so we confirm the usable area against your file before starting production.

Ordering starts at 10 pieces per model, branding is included in the price with no setup fee, and the per-unit price depends on the run size and is shown on the product page. Samples can be sent in two to three days so you can check the shape, size and colour in person. Production runs from five working days after artwork approval, with delivery across the EU.
