Make a Splash with Summertime Substrates

Summertime is officially in full swing, which means hot weather, road trips, pool parties, and barbecues. It’s a great time of year to capitalize on all of the exciting personalized products that are sizzling hot right now. Let’s dive into some of the top sublimation items to make for summer 2019.

Cotton Ts (No, really!)

This summer has been especially hot, and the heat is not going away anytime soon. Keep your customers cool by sublimating some breathable cotton T-shirts.

“But wait, you can’t sublimate cotton, right?”

True. You can’t technically sublimate cotton. However, new heat transfer vinyl on the market can be sublimated and then applied to cotton, polyester, and cotton/poly blends. Add fun, summery full-color graphics and photos to T-shirts that are perfect for wearing to the pool or beach.

Drinkware & Accessories

Quench your customers’ thirst for high-quality, personalized summer drinkware and accessories.

Beverage Cozies-One of the top-selling summer items, beverage cozies are a great promotional product that you can sell to virtually any company that is looking at getting some extra exposure. They’re also the perfect addition to any bachelor/bachelorette party.

Coasters-Another excellent opportunity for summer promotional products. Reach out to local restaurants and microbreweries and offer to create high-quality custom coasters for them.

Water Bottles-But let’s not forget some actual drinkware. Water bottles are a surefire summer hit and a great go-to for just about any trade show, company picnic, or team/group event. Pitch these to organizations like your local health and fitness clubs, schools, and amateur sports teams.

Vacation Gear

Ready for summer vacation? Before you hit the road, make sure you’ve packed these hot sublimation items! Here’s your summer vacation checklist.
