Thermal mugs for the telecom sector (Cyprus)
Branded thermal mugs for Cyprus telecom operators (Cyta, Epic, Primetel, Cablenet), flagship stores and B2B partners. Stainless steel double-wall, operator Pantone, MOQ 50 units, 18–28 day lead time from Limassol.
Why a Cyprus telecom operator orders branded thermal mugs
Three uses drive the operator thermal-mug brief. The first is the flagship-store staff-room tier — a stainless steel thermal mug in operator Pantone, used at the Cyta store on Makarios Avenue in Nicosia and the Epic store at My Mall Limassol. The second is the B2B partner tier — a 500 ml thermal mug with the operator wordmark, given to enterprise account managers at the Cyta 5G launch event at the Hilton Nicosia. The third is the campaign giveaway — a powder-coated thermal mug with the operator's seasonal artwork, given away at the back-to-school promotion in August and the Christmas device-bundle promotion in November.
Models and materials that fit
Three SKUs cover most operator briefs. The TC-300 350 ml operator stainless steel thermal mug (350 ml, 18/8 stainless steel, double-wall vacuum insulation, operator Pantone powder-coat finish) is the flagship-store staff-room tier. The TC-220 500 ml stainless steel thermal mug (500 ml, 18/8 stainless steel, double-wall vacuum insulation, soft-touch matte finish) is the B2B partner tier. The TC-440 350 ml ceramic-lined thermal mug (350 ml, ceramic-lined interior, 18/8 stainless exterior, copper-plated lid) is the executive B2B gift tier.
Prints and branding approaches
Staff-room tier: laser engraving on the operator powder-coat (max 50×30 mm), exposing the silver underneath. B2B partner tier: laser engraving paired with a small foil-stamped operator wordmark. Executive tier: laser engraving on the copper-plated lid paired with a foil-stamped welcome card. Pantone matching follows each operator's brand book — Cyta PMS 300 C, Epic PMS 219 C, Primetel PMS 354 C, Cablenet PMS 165 C.
Bundling and packaging
Staff-room tier ships in a polybag with a printed asset label (operator, store, role). B2B partner tier ships in a rigid 2-piece gift box with a foil-stamped lid, a tissue liner, and a printed welcome card. Executive tier ships in a velvet-lined rigid box with a magnetic closure.

Cyprus context
The four operators and the cable ISPs (Cablenet, Omega) all run national footprints that pass through Nicosia, Limassol and Larnaca. Cyta's flagship store on Makarios Avenue in Nicosia and the Epic store at My Mall Limassol drive the staff-room tier; the Cyta 5G launch event and the annual partners' dinner drive the B2B partner tier. The back-to-school promotion in August and the Christmas device-bundle promotion in November drive the campaign tier. We hold stock of TC-300 in Cyta and Epic colourways at our Limassol hub so a 100-unit staff-room rollout ships in 7 working days.
Frequently asked questions
Which thermal mug suits a Cyta or Epic flagship-store staff room?
The TC-300 350 ml operator stainless steel thermal mug — 18/8 stainless steel, double-wall vacuum insulation, operator Pantone powder-coat (Cyta PMS 300 C, Epic PMS 219 C). Laser engraving on the operator powder-coat (max 50×30 mm) exposing the silver underneath. A 100-unit rollout ships in 18 working days from our Limassol stock.
Are the thermal mugs EU REACH and food-safe compliant?
Yes — all stainless steel, powder-coat finishes and ceramic linings used on the TC-300, TC-220 and TC-440 are EU REACH-compliant and pass the EU food-safety migration test (EU Regulation 1935/2004). We supply a per-batch Declaration of Conformity on request for orders above 200 units.
Can you match each operator's Pantone brand colour exactly?
Yes — Cyta PMS 300 C blue, Epic PMS 219 C magenta, Primetel PMS 354 C green, Cablenet PMS 165 C orange. Custom powder-coat starts at 200 units per colourway with a 4-week lead time and a colour-match report (ΔE ≤ 2). Below 200 units we supply from the operator brand library we keep at the Limassol hub.
How fast can a 200-piece B2B thermal mug order turn around?
21 business days for TC-220 with foil + laser after artwork approval. The Cyta 5G launch and the annual partners' dinner are the two annual spikes — book 4 weeks ahead and we hold the slot. Repeat designs from the previous year can ship in 10 working days.
Can the thermal mug include a QR code linking to the operator's app?
Yes — for the B2B thermal mug tier we can add a small QR code on the lid that resolves to the operator's app-download page (App Store + Google Play). The code is generated at 300 dpi and laser-etched into the lid. Add €0.40 per unit for the QR code.
Can the thermal mug be paired with a coffee bean pouch for a launch kit?
Yes — we co-source 250 g craft coffee pouches from a Limassol roaster, with a printed label in the operator Pantone. Pack the pouch inside the mug in a rigid gift box. Add €3.80 per pouch for the coffee and €1.20 per box for the gift packaging. Lead time matches the mug.
