DPI
Mug wraps are sized from circumference (π × diameter) minus handle gaps on some blanks. Enter diameter, wrap height and top/bottom clearances to get art size and a 300 DPI canvas.

Tapered travel mugs need brand-specific trapezoid templates — this tool is for cylindrical mugs.

How it works / formula

Calculation steps

  1. Wrap width = π × diameter.
  2. Art height = available height − top clearance − bottom clearance.
  3. Pixels = inches × DPI.

Worked example

Example (illustrative)

  • 3.35 in diameter → width ≈ 10.52 in.
  • With 3.75 in height and 0.25 in clearances → art height 3.25 in.
  • At 300 DPI ≈ 3156 × 975 px.

Assumptions & limitations

This calculator provides an estimate for planning and quoting. Actual results vary with supplier pricing, ink coverage, waste, labour rates, equipment and marketplace fee changes. Always verify critical numbers before production. See the disclaimer.

Sublimation tips

Tip Why
Leave handle gap if needed Full 360° wraps can wrinkle at the seam
Use poly-coated mugs Standard ceramic needs coating for dye-sub
Mirror the art Most mug presses require mirrored prints

Frequently asked questions

Will this work for tumblers?

Straight tumblers yes if cylindrical. Tapered tumblers need a trapezoid template from the blank maker.

Are Mug Wrap Size Calculator results exact for production?

Treat them as planning estimates. Calibrate against your equipment, invoices and waste logs before you lock customer quotes.
