The UK Summer is here. Time for hot drinks in Promotional Travel Mugs

It doesn't matter what the season is, promotional travel mugs are great for the whole year round.

For those of us who have a long journey to work and like to have a drink on the way travel mugs were the best invention to have been made. They are so much more convenient than a regular household mug, having a lid which prevents spillages meaning little chance of being burnt. Depending on what material the travel mug is made of, they can be almost unbreakable aswell.

The main benefit of using a travel mug is that they keep your drink at your desired temperature, whether it be hot or cold. Many people don't realise that travel mugs can also be used for cold drinks.

Whether they are made from stainless steel or plastic, travel mugs are insulated meaning that it'll keep the liquid inside it at a constant temperature, whether it is hot or cold. People also use travel mugs as a cost saving measure. If you buy a cup of coffee a day, it may not seem a lot however even the cheapest coffees can be about £1.50, by using a travel mug people can make their own coffee in the morning, saving £30 a month. As well as this, coffee shop chains generally offer special offers to customers who bring in their own mugs.

Travel mugs are also good for the environment. It is estimated that if one hundred thousand people used travel mugs rather than paper cups then two football pitches worth of trees would be saved every day. In a world which is increasingly becoming more environmentally friendly, this is an impressive figure and another reason why using travel mugs needs to be encouraged.

Travel mugs are used by millions of coffee lovers across the world which is why they make a great promotional item. Consider how many people you see each day with some sort of travel mug, particularly how many commuters use one on a daily basis. Now think about the amount of free advertising having your logo on that cup would bring. Travel mugs are reusable and depending on the quality can last for many years.

A unique design or high quality mug will be used time and time again, promoting your brand to thousands of people. So not only will you be showing to the world you are environmentally friendly but you are also showing clients that you care about their wellbeing and personal finances.

So there we have it, investing in a promotional travel mug can provide years of free advertising for your business.And keep you warm in a UK summer....
