Where to get mugs printed?

[Pedro Vieira]

Hello, I am new to the forum and I am just starting a small business selling my own designs online.

I would like to know if anyone can advise on where to get a good place to have decent quality photo mugs printed (dye sublimation or digital transfer) for re-sale at a good price. All advice will be greatly appreciated !
Warm regards,

Pedro Vieira

Hi,

Of course there is Vistaprint (http://www.vistaprint.co.uk) which is probably one of the most famous on-demand printing websites.

However, you could also use Spreadshirt (http://www.spreadshirt.co.uk) or Cafepress (http://www.cafepress.co.uk). The interesting thing about these two websites is, that you can create your own online shop in their system and upload your own designs directly to their system. If a visitor of your website orders a mug with your design, they do everything (payment, production, delivery) and just give you a cut of the money.

Best Regards,
Uwe

Thanks a lot Uwe, I will have a look at your suggestions! So far my best option is mugsandmats.

Best wishes,

Pedro

Ps* Any designers here with t-shirt/mug/etc online businesses wanting to share experiences?

Hi Pedro,

I print my own art onto mugs, see my website at sciartimages.co.uk. I also print for others, please contact me by pm or through the website for details. I print onto the highest quality mugs by dye sublimation, and offer low minimum order quantity.

When getting your mugs printed make sure you ask for dishwasher safe/proof mugs - the cheaper the quote and they'll be using inferior mugs that will fade within a few weeks/months. This isn't a good advert for your services.

I print mugs from one off's to large orders of a few hundred upwards. We only use guaranteed dishwasher safe/proof mugs that won't fade. Single to full colour printing to both sides of the mug is available at the same price and depending on qty ordered - same day despatch is possible.

If your interested please get in touch for a detailed quote.

Cheers John
