Their mugs are Orca coated so you could try a supplier like MDP supplies and purchase just one box to see what the coating is like. I personally use Neil Brothers for quite a few jobs and never have any issues.

The will only send items out via pallet and have two prices. This is for the Mainland but the prices are £48 for a two to three day and £53 for a next day (both plus VAT and approx).
Thanks good idea to try some premium grade mugs from MDP they seemed good (apart from nearly 50% arriving with broken handles!) So do you know if the premium grade 10oz Orca Coated Durham mugs from MDP are the same as Grade AAA Orca Durham at Neil Brothers?

Sorrry I do not as I have never used MDP mugs, however I have (and do) use NB mugs and never really had an issue.

In theory, the coating is exactly the same as the ORCA coating has been licensed to various Chinese suppliers. In practice I have no idea if they offer the same print quality though.
