!±8± Types and Styles of Mugs and Cups

Almost everyone drinks coffee or tea, especially in the morning. Most drinkers have their own mugs to drink from and generally are attached to them. These mugs are mostly insulated so they retain the temperature of the fluid they hold. Insulated mugs keep hot beverages hot and cold drinks cold for hours, so whether you want to keep sipping hot coffee or cold beer when driving, an insulated mug is the right drink container for you.

Mugs are made from a host of materials. Some materials have benefits over others so you got to choose the one that suits your requirement. Plastic and steel mugs for instance are highly durable. They do not break and they retain more heat, glass mugs on the other, hand are easily breakable but look the most attractive of the lot when well designed.

Discount mugs can be broken down into three main types, travel mugs, beer mugs and marketing mugs. Travel mugs are insulated and are used to hold beverages at their right temperature for longer, so you can keep driving and slowly sipping your drink from the insulated mug. Travel mugs are also shaped to fit the mug/glass holder of the car. They are leak and spill free too. Beer mugs are larger, they can hold up to 16 ounces of the drink and are often gifted to beer lovers on occasions. Marketing mugs, as their name suggests are used to brand and distribute. You can brand mugs with your company logo and message and distribute as many as you want, everyone loves them because they are so durable and practical and they keep reminding the person of the company.

The style of discount mugs and cups is dependent on its shape and printing. Mugs can literally be molded into any shape or size. The most preferred shapes; also the trendiest are bell, cubis, marrow and atlantic. Mugs are styled with the latest technology. They are printed, engraved, embossed and even hand painted. Special printing equipment produces vibrant, glossy images. Then there is the thermal glazing technology, it adds a long lasting shine to the mug. Using intense heat, images are printed on the surface of the mug; this is called sublimation dying and produces prints that never fade away.

All in all, mugs are available in many materials, many shapes and sizes and with an unending supply of designs on them. They could make a perfectly practical and lovable item for your possessions list.
