When selecting ceramic and glassware for promotional products, it’s essential to understand the different materials and print options available to ensure the items are durable, functional, and visually appealing. Below are descriptions of various material types and ink options to help guide the best choice for your needs:
Material Types

Dishwasher Resistance: Suitable for residential and limited commercial dishwasher use.
Usage Recommendations: Commonly used in small food establishments with less demanding handling requirements. While durable, it is best suited for environments with less frequent or gentler use.
Performance: Effective for high-traffic environments like restaurants, cafes, bars, and coffee shops due to its better resistance to chipping during table clearing and handling.
Vitrified Ceramic
Firing Temperature: ~2400°F
Durability: Even harder and denser than standard stoneware, making it more resistant to chipping and wear.
