What is the White/Black 11 oz. Round Ceramic Mug?
Item LMG31 is a travel mug at 11 oz in ceramic, chosen for how well it takes a mark and how long that mark lasts. It measures 3 3/4". This is the white colorway, one of 2 in the range.
Ceramic is the substrate people actually keep at a desk. It holds heat well, it is microwave and dishwasher safe in most configurations, and it does not impart any flavour. That is the difference between something kept and something replaced.
Dye-sublimation bonds full-color artwork into the glaze rather than sitting on top of it, so photographs, gradients and exact brand colors all reproduce. And the result survives the dishwasher. A sealed lid and a cup-holder base make this the item that actually leaves the building with your logo on it.
The middle of the range, and the part of it that does the most work. Good enough that people keep it, cheap enough that you can cover an entire department. Concretely: $18.50 each at 1-11, $11.47 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 1.6 in x 2.63 in.
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.
Best for
Full-wrap photographic decoration on mugs, coated drinkware and coated metal.
Color
Full color. Cannot print white. The substrate supplies white.
UV Printing
UV-cured ink is jetted directly onto the product and cured instantly under ultraviolet light. Full-color, photographic-quality artwork with hard edges and no dot gain.
Best for
Multi-color logos, gradients, photographs and exact brand-color matching.
Color
Full color, including white ink on dark substrates.
Artwork requirements
- We send a digital proof for written approval before production starts. Nothing goes on a machine until you sign it off.
- A digital proof comes back to you first, every time. Production starts on your written approval and not before.
- Name the PMS values for anything that has to match a brand standard; screen color is not a reliable reference.
- Convert all type to outlines so fonts do not substitute in production.
- Artwork we redraw stays on file under your item number, so the next order runs from the same corrected file.

Common uses
CommutingA natural fit for commuting, which is one of the settings this travel mug was specified for.
Field and route workSpecified regularly for field and route work. The imprint area at 1.6 in x 2.63 in is sized for exactly that job.
Employee welcome kitsWorks well for employee welcome kits, where the travel mug format does what a printed handout cannot.
Internal contests and incentivesA tangible prize outperforms a gift card for exactly the reason you would expect. It stays on the desk.
Service anniversariesFive, ten and twenty years. The object marks the span in a way a announcement never manages.
Executive and board giftingShort lists, individual personalization, and a piece that survives scrutiny.
Remote team welcome kitsShipped to a home address, which for a distributed team is the only physical touch the company gets.
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.
1
Onboarding & New Hire Kits
Day one sets the tone for everything after it. Split the kit by what it signals. One item should be genuinely useful on day one, one should be shareable outside work, and one should carry the name of the team rather than the company. That mix does more for belonging than a single expensive piece. At $18.50 before breaks this is the tier most programmes should live in.
2
Construction, Trades & Field Services
On a job site, an item survives or it disappears. Durability is the whole specification: insulated drinkware that shrugs off a truck bed, headwear that lives outdoors, and decoration that cannot scrape off. Crew gifting in this sector is a retention tool in a labour market where retention is expensive. Decoration holds up in this setting, which is where cheaper substrates fail. Good enough to be kept, affordable enough to order in real quantity.
3
Corporate Gifting & Client Appreciation
Client gifting has one job: to be kept. Timing beats budget in this segment. The same gift sent a week after a renewal lands completely differently from one sent in December with four hundred others, because in January it is the only thing on the desk. Buy for the calendar you control rather than the one everybody shares. An imprint area of 1.6 in x 2.63 in is enough for a logo and a line of text without crowding. This is the sweet spot: real perceived value without a procurement conversation.
4
Automotive & Dealerships
Delivery day is the highest-emotion moment in the customer relationship. Anything that goes in or on a vehicle gets judged against the vehicle. A cheap keychain handed over with a car undercuts the purchase in a way that giving nothing would not, which makes this one of the few segments where under-spending is the bigger risk. $18.50 before breaks buys something people keep rather than bin.
5
Technology, SaaS & Startups
Distributed teams have no office to carry the culture, so the objects have to. Shipping a considered kit to a home address is now a standard part of remote onboarding, and it is the rare marketing spend that shows up in retention numbers. Ship-safe materials matter more here than in any other segment. At 11 oz it suits the way this audience actually uses it. Deep enough quantity is affordable here, which is unusual at this quality.

What do buyers ask about LMG31?
Can I mix colors or sizes to reach a quantity break?
Yes. LMG31 runs in 2 colors and they combine for pricing, as long as the artwork does not change between them. Different artwork is fine as well: it gets its own proof, and setup stays free. Price breaks on this item fall at 1-11, 12-23, 24-47, 48-95, 96-249, 250-499, 500+.
What artwork do you need from me?
Vector artwork is ideal (.ai, .eps, .pdf or .svg) with all type converted to outlines. High-resolution raster at 300 dpi or better also works, and a logo saved from a website is worth sending anyway. We check it against the 1.6 in x 2.63 in personalization area and tell you before you pay whether it holds up at that size.
What does it actually cost at quantity?
The published ladder on LMG31 runs from $18.50 a piece at 1-11 down to $11.47 at 500+, about 38% less per piece. Price breaks on this item fall at 1-11, 12-23, 24-47, 48-95, 96-249, 250-499, 500+. Engraving is a separate line, shown per quantity in the cost table on this page, so the all-in figure is visible before checkout. Ground freight is free on orders over $250.
How long does production take?
Standard production is 3 to 5 business days after proof approval, then 1 to 5 business days of ground transit. The clock starts when you approve the proof, not when you place the order. A free digital proof comes back within one business day of usable artwork, and nothing is produced until you approve it in writing. A rush is quoted per job, with the date confirmed in writing before you pay.
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 get a sample before committing?
Yes: order one piece. LMG31 sells from a single unit at $18.50, the first rung of its published ladder, so a sample is simply a normal order. A decorated single piece goes through the same proof as a full run.
Do you ship to multiple addresses?
Yes, through a quote. Card checkout ships one order to one address, so for a split run send the address list with a quote request and we confirm the freight for every destination in writing before you pay. The artwork is proofed once and applied across the whole run. Ground freight is free on orders over $250.
What is the minimum order for LMG31?
There is no minimum beyond one piece on LMG31. Price breaks on this item fall at 1-11, 12-23, 24-47, 48-95, 96-249, 250-499, 500+. The price per piece only goes down as the quantity rises. The published ladder on LMG31 runs from $18.50 a piece at 1-11 down to $11.47 at 500+, about 38% less per piece.

- Ground freight is free from 12 pieces, which is where this order passes $250.00 of merchandise.
- The personalization area is 1.6 in by 2.63 in. Engraving is charged on the share your artwork actually covers, so a smaller logo costs less. Place yours on the product above and the price updates as you size it.
- At 50 pieces this costs less than 79% of the 532 other priced items in Drinkware.
- The table starts at 12 because below that the engraving setup costs more than the goods, and we will not guess at a price there. Ask us and we will quote a smaller run from your artwork.
- Setup is free at every quantity, including 12.
