Hi,
Last year I produced dye-sub mugs, but have been busy with other projects fo last 12 months., and am out of touch with who to use as supplier.

I was using the standard chunky mugs, but am looking for some thinner bone china style dye-sub mugs.

Can anyone recommend a supplier in the UK?

thanks

Ian

I don't know if they supply bone china mugs, but Xpres have always had a good rep for quality.
Or you could try Listawood Trade Supplies.

Totally agree, Xpres is very good, can be a little pricey.
Can't comment on listawood as i have not used them
Theres also Novachrome and Subli supplies who have very good customers care.

Please note: Stay away from Hometogifts, in my own opinion they have the worst customer service i have experienced. I constantly used them because there prices are cheap, however ive now given up on them due to the poor quality items and terrible customer service. They are now dropped from my supplier list.


Anyone know of wholesalers who supply companys like subli supplies? i believe they get there supplies from UK companies, it would be great to cut the middle men out.

Guys why not go to the manufacturers. I appreciate theyre not easy to find but we have the odd one or two here in Stoke (before they all go bankrupt) I will try to put up some phone numbers of smaller pot banks and local wholesalers a bit later.

Don't forget the mugs have to be coated in order to sublimate though
