BRAND COLOURS

Getting your brand colours right

The print type you choose decides how close your colours can get.

How each print type handles colour
Print typeColourSizesOrder quantity
Simple PrintYour logo on a white cup, CMYK, matte finish4oz–24ozFrom 250 cups
Full Colour PrintEdge to edge, full CMYK, semi-gloss finish6oz–16ozFrom 250 cups on 8oz, 12oz and 16oz

Unit prices in the online price table are shown ex GST, with the order total inc GST.

Simple Print and Full Colour Print are printed in CMYK. Screens show RGB, so printed colour will differ a little from what you see on a monitor, and slight variation between runs is normal.

There's no white or metallic ink. White areas of your design are the cup itself, so a white logo on a coloured background shows as bare cup, and silver or gold in your brand guidelines can't print as metallic. Text needs to be 6 pt or larger, and fine lines at least 0.5 pt (1 pt if reversed out).

PANTONE

Exact colour with Wholesale Print

For accurate colour, use Wholesale Print with your Pantone codes. It's flexo printing in 1 to 5 spot colours on a white cup, from 10,000 to 100,000+ cups. Our terms set the tolerance: within ΔE 5 of the Pantone reference you give us, measured on the printed cup.

Wholesale production takes 30 business days, so plan it well ahead: it suits annual conferences, roadshows and brands that use cups all year. Send a vector PDF with fonts outlined, images embedded and your colours as Pantone codes. Our artwork guide covers the template, bleed and safe area, and events and wholesale has the full wholesale range.

TIMELINE

Your timeline in business days

  1. Tell us your date

    If your cups need to arrive by a set date, tell us before you order.

  2. Send artwork

    Upload your file on the product page; logo placement and design help are free.

  3. Approve the proof

    We send a digital proof within 4 business hours. Every coffee cup order also gets a 3D proof.

  4. Production

    Coffee cups take 10 business days, with rush from 2 business days at extra cost.

  5. Delivery

    We send by TNT or FedEx with a tracking link, in 1 to 6 business days depending on the state.

Approve your proof before 2:30pm (Melbourne time) and production starts the next business day; after 2:30pm, it starts the business day after that. You can ask for as many proof changes as you need until you approve, but once you approve, the design can't be changed. Get sign-off from everyone who needs to see the design before you approve it.

Delivery after dispatch typically takes 1–2 business days to VIC, NSW and the ACT, 2–3 to QLD and SA, 3–4 to WA, and up to 6 to TAS and the NT. Regional areas can take longer. Business days don't include weekends or public holidays. This year we're closed from Friday 18 December to Friday 8 January (see Christmas trading), so an event in early January needs its cups ordered well before mid-December.

Short on time?

Rush production starts from 2 business days. For rushed jobs, we recommend overnight express freight.

No. White and metallic inks can't be printed: white areas of your design are the cup itself.

How far ahead should we order?

Coffee cups take 10 business days after you approve the proof, with rush from 2 business days, plus delivery to your state. Wholesale Print takes 30 business days. If you need cups by a set date, tell us before you order.
