Sublimation coasters are blank coasters with a specially prepared printable surface designed for dye sublimation. Your design is printed using sublimation ink and transferred onto the coaster using heat and pressure, creating a permanent full-colour image.

We stock a wide range of sublimation coaster blanks including MDF coasters, ceramic coasters, glass coasters, car coasters and other specialist styles. We also offer matching sublimation placemats and bulk or wholesale coaster options.

The best option depends on the finished product you want to create. MDF coasters are lightweight, practical and popular for everyday personalised products. Ceramic coasters provide a heavier, more premium feel, while glass coasters offer a contemporary finish.

Our range includes different shapes and sizes depending on the material and product, including popular square and round coaster styles as well as more specialist designs.

You will normally need a sublimation printer, sublimation ink, sublimation transfer paper and a suitable flat heat press - ideally one which you can adjust the pressure manually. You may also need protective paper and other pressing accessories depending on the coaster material being used.
