I have been looking around for some water bottles for a local cycling club to print onto. This area is totally new to me. Can anyone recommend anything for me?
Thanks

They would preferably have to be plastic not sure if that helps
Anyone god any ideas on this. Google is being very unhelpful to me :(
you will not be able to use the sublimation process to print on to plastic bottles for cycling. Dye Sublimation requires a temperature of about 180 degrees for 60 seconds plus (depending on the item you are printing), plastic will melt at this temperature. The only thing I would suggest is metal water bottles but they are considerably more expensive, or if the numbers are worth it then outsource to a screen printer.
Note that the screen printer will need the capabilities of cylindrical printing and ideally know about plastic as both areas are problematic with screen print.
Good luck :-)
USING: Whatever it takes to get the job done...
Hi Rach,
You could try SPSeu - they've just had a management buy-out but are still trading as normal, I think. - Water Bottles
You need to be a member but it shouldn't be a problem getting an account.
Cheers John
Thanks very much John and socialgiraffe This has really been bugging me! Thank you very much
I have just been asked for Water Bottles, Aluminium ones seem like the only way to go at the moment (they want 750ml) .. but at £4.32 exc delivery (BMS) It's starting to look like an expensive item to retail :(
Only just started looking though - I need 20 for the first order.
Arghh. there is a problem with the Listawood Trade site :(
