Licensed character drinkware brings the authorised artwork, brand guide and approval process into the production brief. We can follow the agreed character references and packing requirements, with the sample and any requested product reports confirmed for the order.
For context: we're an authorized Sanrio sub-licensee for Hello Kitty and other characters — you can download our authorization letter (commercial details redacted).
Start with the authorised brand guide
Licensed artwork starts with the brand guide: proportions, colours, placement and any required approvals. Share those details early so we can work them into the proof and sample together.
The Approval Workflow
A licensed project moves through the brand guide, artwork proof, approval sample and any requested revisions before bulk production. We can help coordinate those steps around your launch date.
Print Methods for Character Artwork
Character designs are usually full-colour and detailed, so the print method matters:
- UV digital printing: an option for detailed or full-colour artwork on compatible models; confirm the layout and decoration with the sample and quotation.
- Heat transfer: compare wraparound character artwork on a compatible body and confirm it on the sample.
- Insert-paper bottle: the artwork sits behind a clear outer wall, protecting the print and giving a glossy, full-wrap character look that's popular for Hello Kitty-style gift lines.
- Silk-screen: for simpler, solid-colour character elements at high volume.
Product reports for the selected model
Tell us the chosen model, age group and the product documents requested for the licensed programme. We will explain the existing reports and discuss anything new that needs to be arranged.
Case in Point
We have manufactured Hello Kitty drinkware for a customer holding the market licence, as well as other licensed character projects. The authorised artwork, approval sample, packing and labels are kept together for the order. Our customer cases page shows more of that experience.
