Drinkware previews that follow the curve
A mug is the clearest test of whether a personalizer understands physical products. The print bends, the handle interrupts it, and there are two completely different layouts — full wraparound and two facing panels. This is the category Customei was built to get right.
Design a mug — right here
Type a name and watch it bend around the ceramic. Switch between wraparound and two-panel layout.
Simplified stand-in for the storefront runtime — the real editor renders your own template and mockup photography.
What matters for mugs & drinkware
Only the capabilities that apply.
A feature list scoped to this category, because a camera cut-out means nothing on a cushion.
- Curved-surface warping
- The warp mesh follows the cylinder, so a long name reads correctly at the edges instead of stretching.
- Wraparound or panel
- One continuous 360° print, or two facing panels with the handle between them.
- Handle-safe print area
- The handle zone is masked out of the print area, so nothing lands where it cannot print.
- Glaze and gloss preview
- A specular pass so the preview reads as glazed ceramic rather than paper.
- Dishwasher-safe flagging
- Flag finishes with care requirements so the listing and the packing slip agree.

Fulfilment notes
- Wrap files export flat at the vessel's unrolled dimensions — exactly what a sublimation press expects.
- The handle exclusion zone is baked into the file, not left as an instruction.
- Panel layouts export as two assets so production can press them independently.
