450ml Glass Mug Frosted: Sublimatable Frosted Glass Mug with Handle

Create a premium personalised glass mug with our sublimatable 450ml glass mug frosted. This frosted glass mug holds 450ml and accepts full-colour sublimation printing. You press your design onto the mug from the back, with the print side facing down, using light pressure. Because the mug is glass, it requires a lower temperature and a back-side press technique to protect the surface and prevent cracking. The frosted finish softens the printed design and gives the finished mug a matte, premium appearance. Sold individually.

Why Frosted Glass Produces a Softer, More Premium Result Than Clear Glass

The clear glass mug shows the design with sharp, direct contrast. The frosted glass mug does something different. The frosted surface scatters light across the printed design, softening hard edges and giving colours a gentle, diffused quality. That effect suits designs where a softer aesthetic is the goal — watercolour artwork, floral patterns, script fonts, and pastel colour palettes all benefit from the frosted surface in a way that they do not on clear glass.

The frosted finish also gives the mug a matte texture that feels different in the hand from a standard gloss glass surface. That tactile quality reads as premium to customers who handle it. Since the sublimation coating sits on the frosted surface rather than on a gloss one, the finished design has a distinctly different character from anything produced on a ceramic or clear glass mug. For crafters who want to offer a product that stands apart from the standard mug range, the frosted glass mug occupies a different market position entirely.

Press Settings for the 450ml Glass Mug Frosted

Press the 450ml frosted glass mug at 180°C for 180 seconds. Use light pressure only. To prevent cracking, preheat the mug by leaving it flat on the open press before applying pressure. Do not press on the print side at any stage.
