To assist you in finding cups that help keep drinks hot or cold, we’ll show you how different types of insulated tumblers work and what to look for in custom drinkware.
Types of Insulation Available for Insulated Tumblers and Personalized Mugs
Insulation is one of the most important things to look for when selecting a cup to help keep liquid at its ideal temperature. Several types are available in custom drinkware, each with varying abilities to help keep liquids at temperature.
- Air insulation: Good—helps keep drinks cool or hot for an extended period of time.
- Vacuum insulation: Better—helps keep drinks cool or hot longer than air insulation.
- Copper insulation: Best—helps keep drinks cool or hot for the longest time.
