How to choose the right Fabric Napkins

• Decide on the service style you offer, from casual bistro to fine dining, and choose napkin designs and colours that match your brand and tableware.
• Consider fabric type: polyester for maximum durability and stain resistance, cotton for a softer, more premium feel, or linen-style for a contemporary look.
• Select the right size to suit your service, from compact napkins for cafes and bars to larger formats for restaurants and banqueting.
• Plan quantities based on peak covers, table turns and laundry cycles so you always have spare napkins ready for service.
• Match napkin colours with tablecloths, runners and overall decor to create a cohesive table linen scheme.
• For hotels and venues, choose versatile neutral colours that work across breakfast, lunch, dinner and events.

Care and maintenance

• Follow the manufacturers washing instructions, using appropriate temperatures to remove food and wine stains without damaging fibres.
• Wash dark and light colours separately to prevent colour transfer and keep whites bright.
• Avoid harsh bleach on coloured napkins; use professional stain removers suitable for commercial textiles.
• Shake out and smooth napkins before drying or pressing to reduce creasing and speed up ironing.
• Store clean, dry napkins in a closed cupboard or linen room to protect them from dust and kitchen odours.
• Rotate stock regularly so wear is spread evenly across all napkins, extending the life of your linen.
