What is the difference between one color and Photo/Full Color/Sublimation

One color means we are putting one color ink on the product. And only one color, and does not include shades of that color. So it would be white ink, or black ink or red ink.  In the example below that is one color (white ink).

Photo/Full Color or Sublimation means we are printing more than one color.  Two color, three color or full photographs.  We use a different process for this where we print on a sublimation paper, and heat press the full color image to a product.   In the picture below we have full color.

Yes, they are,  We have had Koozies for 20 plus years with plenty of life in them.  Keeping our drinks as cold as day 1.

Regarding washing.  We recommend.

  • Hand wash: Use a soft cloth or sponge and warm water with a gentle detergent to wash the koozie. Swirl and squeeze out the dirt, then rinse with warm water and let air dry.
  • Washing machine: Treat the koozie as delicate and wash it on a gentle cycle with warm water and mild detergent. If the koozie is made of neoprene, use cold water. After washing, let the koozie air dry.

Even ordering a sample pack may not be the 100% accurate as the next shipment from our supplier may be a little bit different.

What is the best Koozie Material?

We are a little biased, but most of our customers  feel the same way.  Neoprene is the best material for Koozies.  Neoprene Koozies are made of scuba like material.  Why is this so good you ask?

  • The neoprene material is the same as what is used for wetsuits.  So it stretches a bit and goes back into shape.  This product fits cans and bottles very well.
  • The sewing is on the side, so it lays flatter.
  • The material is smoother than other materials, so a finer design can be printed.
  • It is very durable.

Scuba foam, (which is a fabric material) is the second best, it is a little less expensive, so is great for a give away.

Hard foam is still popular, and then there are the alternative offerings, leather, wood, steel, etc.

What is Neoprene?

Neoprene, also known as polychloroprene, is a synthetic rubber that’s produced by polymerizing chloroprene. It’s stronger and harder than natural rubber, and is resistant to water, oils, solvents, fire, ozone, and sunlight. Neoprene is also flexible over a wide temperature range and has good chemical stability.

Most people think of the wetsuit which is made from Neoprene. Some mouse pads, and some wire insulation is made of neoprene.

From our perspective it is a great material for printing on. We love our neoprene koozies.

Hard Foam

Why are Hard Foam Koozies so popular?

Hard Foam Koozies are the original.  They are sturdy, stand up, and are much more stable.

Hard foam koozies are great for several reasons:

  1. Insulation: Hard foam koozies are excellent at keeping beverages cold. The foam material provides a barrier that reduces the transfer of heat from the surrounding environment to the beverage, helping to maintain the drink’s temperature for a longer period.
  2. Durability: Unlike soft koozies, hard foam koozies are more durable and can withstand more wear and tear. They are less likely to tear, crush, or become misshapen, making them a long-lasting option for keeping drinks cool.
  3. Grip and Comfort: Hard foam koozies provide a comfortable and firm grip, making it easier to hold your drink. The foam material also prevents condensation from forming on the outside of the can or bottle, keeping your hands dry.
  4. Protection: They offer a layer of protection for your beverage container, reducing the risk of damage if accidentally dropped. This can be particularly useful for glass bottles.
