When celebrating a major corporate milestone—like a 50th anniversary—a standard mug with a small logo stamped on the side often feels underwhelming. It fails to capture the history, the people, and the impact of the organization. To truly honor a legacy, you need merchandise that tells a story.
However, most organizations struggle with this because they don't have an in-house art team to create complex merchandise designs. That is where Lamose steps in. We don't just print; we take over the design job.
The Challenge: Turning a Logo into a Story
CAZA (Canada's Accredited Zoos and Aquariums) approached us for their upcoming Golden Jubilee (1975–2025). They had their official "50" logo, but they wanted something more impactful for their members than a plain branded bottle.
The challenge? They needed to represent the diverse scope of their work—from marine conservation to zookeeper dedication—on a single canvas.
Instead of asking them to hire an expensive agency, Lamose's in-house design team took the lead. We utilized our 360° digital canvas to expand their logo into a full visual narrative.
Standard Printing vs. Lamose Full-Service Design
Many B2B buyers assume they need to provide "print-ready" full art. At Lamose, we bridge that gap.

A Trilogy of Designs: The CAZA Collection
We developed three distinct themes for the Bow 16oz Tumbler to represent the different pillars of CAZA's community. Using our digital UV printing, we achieved vibrant colors and a tactile finish that brings the illustrations to life.
1. The "Deep Dive" (Aquarium Theme)
To represent the aquariums across Canada, this design features a sea turtle, stingray, and a diver exploring the reef. The "50" logo is integrated naturally into the underwater scene. The blue background wraps seamlessly around the cup, immersing the user in the marine world.
2. The "Keepers & Care" (Zookeeper Theme)
Zoos are nothing without their dedicated staff. This design focuses on the human connection—zookeepers feeding giraffes and caring for lions. It highlights the educational and caretaking aspect of CAZA’s mission, using warm character illustrations that feel personal and inviting.
3. The "Wild Legacy" (Conservation Theme)
This design showcases the majesty of the animals themselves, featuring a moose, crane, and elephant. It emphasizes wildlife conservation, which is at the heart of CAZA's 50-year history. The complex shading on the elephant’s skin showcases the high resolution of our UV printers.
Frequently Asked Questions about Custom Design Services
I have a logo but no artwork. Can you help?
Absolutely. This is our specialty. Send us your vector logo and your general idea (e.g., "we want a nature theme" or "celebrating 10 years of tech"), and our in-house design team will create a 360-degree mockup for you.
Is there an extra cost for full-wrap printing?
With our digital UV technology, printing a full-wrap design often costs the same or marginally more than a simple logo, but the perceived value is significantly higher.
