Mugs with Logo from 1 pc: Full-Colour Printing in Riga

We print mugs with your logo from just 1 piece at our own production site at Kandavas iela 29A, using the sublimation method — a full-colour image with no limit on the number of colours, including photographs and gradients. One ceramic mug with printing typically costs from EUR 12 (excl. VAT); at 10 pieces the price drops to around EUR 8, and at 50 pieces — to around EUR 5.50 per piece. The production time after artwork approval is 1–3 business days.

Why sublimation allows printing from just one piece

With sublimation, we first print the image onto special paper, then use a heat press at around 180°C to bond the dye into the mug's coating. There are no screens, no plates and no colour set-up — so there's no set-up fee, and making one mug is just as straightforward as making fifty.

The practical result for you: a single gift for a name day, six T-shirts for a team, or 200 mugs for a conference are all produced using the same technology. Only the price per piece and the turnaround time differ.

What can and can't be printed

• Full-colour image, photo, or logo with tonal transitions — yes, with no surcharge for the number of colours.
• Print area on a standard 330 ml mug: approximately 200 × 80 mm (wraps around the mug, leaving a free zone near the handle).
• Sublimation can't print white — white areas in the artwork remain the mug's base colour (usually white).
• Only mugs with a sublimation coating are suitable; an ordinary shop-bought mug won't work.

Mug types and indicative prices

The prices below are indicative, excl. VAT, with full-colour printing on one side or wrapped around. The exact price depends on quantity, mug model and print area.

If you need a gift box or individual packaging for each mug, this is charged separately — typically from EUR 1.20 per piece.

When it's more cost-effective to choose mugs from the catalogue

From 50 pieces, it's often more cost-effective to go with plastic and metal travel mugs from our catalogue with 360° digital printing or screen printing. These offer a wide colour choice for the body and lid, so you can match the mug to your company colours. These models usually have a minimum order quantity of 50 pcs, and the turnaround is longer — 6–10 business days (4–7 business days production + 2–3 days delivery).

If you need 1–20 pieces, sublimation on ceramic or thermal mugs at our production site will be both faster and cheaper than a catalogue item with a minimum run.

What files are needed

Vector graphics (.ai, .eps, .pdf, .svg) in the CMYK colour space work best. If your logo is only in raster format, you need a resolution of at least 300 dpi at the actual print size — for a 200 × 80 mm print area, that means around 2360 × 945 pixels.

If you don't have a file, or it's poor quality, we'll help prepare the artwork. Before production, we send the artwork by email with the exact print placement; we print only after written approval. You can view examples of previous work in our portfolio.

Turnaround and collection in Riga

We produce sublimation mugs in 1–3 business days after artwork approval. Small orders (1–5 pcs) can often be ready the next business day, provided the artwork is in order. Urgent jobs are arranged by separate agreement.

You can collect your order at Kandavas iela 29A, or we can deliver: courier in Riga EUR 16.00 per trip, to regions — via parcel locker or courier at cost. If you also need stickers, business cards or promotional products with your logo in the same order, we'll put together a single quote and send everything in one shipment.

Frequently asked questions

Can I really order just one mug with a logo?

Yes. Sublimation has no set-up fee, so one mug with full-colour printing costs from around EUR 12 excl. VAT. The minimum order is 1 pc.

How many colours can be used in the artwork?

Unlimited — sublimation is full-colour printing, so photos, gradients and multi-colour logos don't change the price. The only thing to keep in mind is that white areas remain the mug's base colour.

Will the print survive the dishwasher?

The sublimation image is bonded into the coating rather than printed on top, making it durable through washing. For longer-lasting results, we recommend a gentle dishwasher cycle up to 50°C and avoiding abrasive cleaning agents.

How long do I have to wait for mugs with a logo?

For mugs printed at our production site — 1–3 business days after artwork approval. For catalogue thermal mugs from 50 pcs — usually 6–10 business days including delivery.

How much do 50 mugs with a logo cost?

White ceramic mugs with full-colour printing at 50 pcs cost from around EUR 5.50 per piece, which is about EUR 275 excl. VAT. Catalogue plastic thermal mugs at 50 pcs start from EUR 5.00 per piece plus artwork set-up.

Can each mug have a different text or name printed on it?

Yes, personalisation with different names is possible with sublimation at no extra charge for switching between variants — you just need a list of texts and a clear note of how many pieces for each variant.
