Double Your Impact with Double-Sided Printed Mouse Mats

When we think of promotional items that have rapidly established themselves as classics, printed mouse mats are at the top of the list. Mouse mats were a product that didn't even exist a couple of decades ago. Now they're one of the hottest advertising media around. Mouse mats offer advantages that make them the perfect vehicle for promotional messages. They offer a large printable surface, take color very well and are the one item that nearly any computer user will have on their desks, day in and day out.

The earliest mouse mats were made of rubber with a soft, fabric top. The fabric was important when most mice were mechanical, using a ball and wheels for tracking. Harder surfaces didn't grip the ball well, and the result was poor tracking for the mouse and cursor. The entry of the optical mouse called for a different kind of mouse. Hard top mouse mats are specifically designed with non-reflective surfaces to improve the tracking of infra-red optical mice. Hard top printed mouse mats are generally made of a thin layer of high density rubber fused to a hard plastic or PVC top. Printed mouse mats with hard tops generally have the printed image fused to the underside of the top layer. They take color better and can handle far more complex printing, up to and including full color photographic prints.

The one problem with mouse mats is that the bottom is wasted space - until now. The newest lines of printed mouse mats include a version that offers double sided printing. Mouse mats printed on both sides offer many different options for customization.

Double your message, double your impact
You could always choose to simply have your logo printed on both sides and create a reversible mouse mat.

Give a double message.
Of course, simply doubling up on your message isn't always the best way to increase your exposure. You might choose to print your logo on one side of the mouse mat and your company name and contact information on the reverse.

Introduce a new product with double sided printed mouse mats.
Double-sided mouse mats offer an ideal vehicle for introducing new products. You can print the top side with a photo of the product, or of customers using the product, and information about the product on the reverse side. This is especially ideal for:

Pharmaceutical products, where the reverse can be used to print dosage information, contraindications and other information

CD performance releases, where the front of the mouse mats can be printed with the CD art and the reverse with the track list

Software releases, where the reverse can list features and required specifications

Sandwich shop adverts, with an abbreviated menu printed on the reverse side where it will always be handy

When you order double-sided printed mouse mats, you may be able to take advantage of professional design services. Many of the UK's top promotional products suppliers maintain their own design departments and often offer the service for free with a sizeable order, or for a nominal fee with a smaller one.
