What is the Sublimatable Neoprene Car Coaster?
This coaster is made from closed-cell neoprene. It measures 2 1/2" Diameter.
Neoprene insulates and is naturally water-resistant, hence it is the default for can and bottle coolers..
Coasters live on the surface where drinks and conversations happen. On this substrate specifically: screen and heat-transfer printing both work; full-color dye sublimation covers the whole surface.
Giveaway pricing, which changes how you should think about quantity. Running short at a booth costs more in missed conversations than the extra units would have cost to print. Concretely: $3.42 each at 1-11, $2.12 at 500+.

Decoration options
The decoration method is chosen to match the substrate, which is why the mark is permanent rather than printed on top of it. Standard imprint area on this item is 1.5 in x 1.25 in.
Screen Printing
Ink is pushed through a mesh stencil, one screen per color. Dense, opaque color that holds up to washing and handling.
Bags, apparel and high-volume runs.
Spot colors, typically up to 4.
Dye Sublimation
Heat converts solid dye to gas, which bonds into a polyester coating or ceramic glaze. Full-color artwork embedded in the surface rather than sitting on top of it.
Full-wrap photographic decoration on mugs, coated drinkware and coated metal.
Full color. Cannot print white. The substrate supplies white.
Heat Transfer
A printed transfer is applied under heat and pressure. Full-color decoration on fabrics and soft goods.
Small runs and complex multi-color artwork on textiles.
Full color.
Artwork requirements
- A 300 dpi raster at the actual imprint dimensions will run cleanly. Anything pulled from a web page usually will not.
- Raster artwork should be at least 300 dpi at the finished imprint size, on a transparent or white background.
- If brand color accuracy matters, give us the Pantone numbers rather than a screenshot to match.
- Type should be converted to curves or outlines, otherwise a missing font silently substitutes on our end.
- Convert all type to outlines so fonts do not substitute in production.

Common uses
Where this works best
The same item lands differently depending on who gets it and why. Here is how this one performs across the programs it sells into most.
Real Estate & Closing Gifts
A closing gift is a referral instrument, not a thank-you note. Agents re-order what generates conversations, not what photographs well. Track which pieces prompt a referral call and the item list narrows quickly to two or three things worth stocking properly. Order deep. At this price the waste of a few extra is cheaper than running short.
Corporate Gifting & Client Appreciation
Client gifting has one job: to be kept. A gift that lands on a client desk and stays there keeps working long after the meeting that prompted it. That argues for fewer, better pieces rather than a large volume of disposables, and for decoration that will still look intentional in two years. Minimum order is a single piece, which suits how this segment tends to buy. Volume is the point at $3.42; nobody is auditing this line item.
Financial Services, Insurance & Legal
Professional services sell trust, and the gift has to look like the invoice. Compliance shapes the purchase more than taste does. Many institutions cap the value of a client gift and require it to be logged, which pushes this segment toward pieces that read as considered rather than expensive. Coasters live on the surface where drinks and conversations happen. Cost per impression is the number that matters here, and it is very low.
Hospitality, Restaurants & Breweries
In hospitality the promotional item and the retail item are the same object. Seasonality drives the order pattern. Terraces, patios and outdoor service create demand for a different specification than winter trade does, so most venues need two lists rather than one annual order. Screen and heat-transfer printing both work; full-color dye sublimation covers the whole surface. Cheap enough to over-order slightly, which is the right call for a table.

What do buyers ask about SBL132?
What does it actually cost at quantity?
Most orders land near 48-95, which prices at $2.74 a piece. The published ladder on SBL132 runs from $3.42 a piece at 1-11 down to $2.12 at 500+, about 38% less per piece. Engraving is a separate line, shown per quantity in the cost table on this page, so the all-in figure is visible before checkout.
Can I order more later and have them match?
Re-orders reproduce rather than reinterpret. We keep the approved artwork on file against the item number, so a re-order runs from the same file. On natural materials the base itself can shift a little between batches, so tell us if an exact match matters. Standard production is 3 to 5 business days after proof approval, then 1 to 5 business days of ground transit.
Can I see a proof before you produce the order?
Always, and we do not start without written approval. A free digital proof comes back within one business day of usable artwork, and nothing is produced until you approve it in writing. Once approved, the proof becomes the specification for the run, so check the spelling and the placement carefully. The personalization area on SBL132 is 1.5 in x 1.25 in.
What if the artwork does not fit the imprint area?
The personalization area on SBL132 is 1.5 in x 1.25 in. If your mark does not sit well in that shape we redraw or re-proportion it and show you the result on the proof before anything is produced. Engraving is charged on the share of the area your artwork covers, so a smaller mark costs less.
Do you keep this item in stock?
Yes. The warehouse shows 87 of SBL132 in stock as of the last hourly sync. If a color is short we say so the day you order rather than the week before the deadline. Standard production is 3 to 5 business days after proof approval, then 1 to 5 business days of ground transit.

How should this be cared for?
