In our daily dining lives, napkins are an essential part of our dining table. We use them in many occasions, from everyday family meals to upscale hotel banquets and weddings. While they look similar to paper towels, they are also different and indispensable.
- Definition of Napkins and Common Fabrics
Our company manufactures napkins in a variety of common fabrics, including pure cotton, linen, and cotton and linen. We offer over 400 colors for you to choose from, ensuring you have confidence in your selection.
In daily household use, pure cotton napkins are commonly used. They are soft, highly absorbent, gentle on the skin, and easy to care for. Linen napkins are often used for formal occasions, such as hotel banquets. They have a strong texture and can be folded to create a sophisticated, three-dimensional look, adding a touch of luxury to the occasion. Cotton and linen napkins offer a perfect combination of the softness and smoothness of both fabrics, making them suitable for a variety of occasions.
- Core Uses and Applications of Napkins
- Different Uses and Performance of Napkins in Dining
Napkins can be used to protect clothing and prevent spills, such as soup; wipe away oily stains from the corners of the mouth and hands; wipe away water stains, spilled drinks, and other liquid stains; and create a three-dimensional decorative effect at banquets in high-end hotels and weddings.
- Common Napkin Usage Scenarios
Napkins are commonly used in a variety of settings, including family gatherings, hotel business banquets, and weddings. They can also be used outdoors, such as for family travel gatherings. However, in these situations, we generally recommend thicker napkins to reduce interference from external factors such as wind.
- Differences and Comparisons between Napkins and Common Paper Towels
- Material and Durability Comparison
Comparing thickness and weight, napkins weigh an average of 165g, while paper towels only weigh 66g. Toughness tests show that napkins can withstand repeated rubbing with the same amount of water, while paper towels are more susceptible to tearing.
- Different Usage Scenarios
Napkins are primarily used for table wiping and ceremonial decorations; paper towels are primarily used for daily cleaning (wiping the face, blowing the nose). For environmental reasons, most napkins are reusable, while most paper towels are disposable. For portability, napkins are bulky when folded, while paper towels are more portable in smaller packages.
- Practical Guide to Choosing and Using Napkins
Napkins made from high-quality fabrics are generally soft, burr-free, reusable, and highly absorbent. For most banquets, a simple triangular fold is sufficient. This fold is elegant and effectively avoids excessive styling that might appear contrived. When washing napkins, it’s best to separate them from dark clothing and use water at a low temperature.
Our company also offers custom embroidery services for napkins, with a minimum order of 50 pieces. You can choose to have your initials or your own logo embroidered on the napkins, making them even more unique. If you’re interested in our napkins, click here to learn more.
