Why choose a disposable paper placemat for your tables?

Disposable paper placemats have become a staple in the catering and institutional food service industry, and for good reason. First, they offer effective protection against stains and damage to tables , preserving the appearance of your furniture and extending its lifespan. Unlike reusable tablecloths, paper placemats are easily replaceable , saving you the cost and effort of regular cleaning.
Disposable placemats allow you to personalize your customers' experience in a unique way. You can print them with your logo, contact information, menu, or even promotional messages, adding a personal touch to every service. This personalization helps strengthen your establishment's brand image and create a closer connection with your clientele.

Disposable placemats and manufacturing materials

For a disposable paper placemat, you have several options: paper, spunbond and non-woven with more sophisticated and luxurious materials like Duni's Dunicel or Dunilin.

Disposable paper placemats
Paper placemats are the most common and economical choice for restaurants, associations, and communities. They are generally sold in bulk, allowing you to benefit from advantageous prices. Furthermore, paper is a 100% recyclable material , making it an eco-friendly choice. Our paper placemats are made in France and carry the European Ecolabel and/or the FSC label. They use food-grade inks free of heavy metals.
The paper set can be made from smooth or embossed paper. Embossed paper offers the advantage of being water-repellent, making it more resistant to liquids and spilled food . This characteristic makes it particularly suitable for environments where there are children or a high risk of spills, such as school cafeterias.

spunbond placemats
For a more upscale option, spunbond placemats are an excellent alternative. This water-repellent and highly durable material ensures long-lasting performance, withstanding the heat of dishes and spills. Their slightly textured surface also gives them a more elegant appearance than paper placemats. Like paper placemats, spunbond placemats are available in a wide range of colors, allowing you to perfectly match them to your establishment's branding.

Dunicel placemats 30x40cm
This is the premium version of the placemat, with an exceptional, fabric-like finish. Dunicel placemats protect your table from scratches, stains, and wear, extending the life of your furniture. They also serve as decorative accents, adding a touch of color or style. You can also explore our range of paper placemats with decorative designs. The Dunicel placemat is comfortable under cutlery, making it an ideal choice for restaurants. It allows for quick and precise table setting, saving valuable time for servers and eliminating the need to reset the table during service.

The advantages of paper placemats

Promotion of events and special offers

Personalized disposable paper placemats also offer you the opportunity to promote your special events, new offers, or seasonal menus. With printed messages, your customers can easily learn about your latest news before they're even served.

The placemat is the seasonal and thematic adaptation

To further personalize your space, you can choose placemats with colors and patterns that change according to the seasons or events. For example, warm-toned placemats in winter, pastel colors in summer, or special designs for Halloween or the holiday season. This approach allows you to create a unique atmosphere and reinforce your establishment's identity.

Placemats with sustainability and ecological considerations

In addition to their advantages in terms of personalization and protection of tables, disposable paper placemats also have advantages in terms of sustainability and respect for the environment.

Ease of replacement

Unlike reusable tablecloths, disposable paper placemats are easily replaceable when damaged or soiled. This saves you the cost and effort of regular cleaning, while maintaining a pristine appearance for your tables.

Eco-friendly materials

Many manufacturers of disposable paper placemats have committed to an eco-responsible approach. They use biodegradable materials, PEFC (Programme for the Endorsement of Forest Certification) certified materials, and compostable inks for printing. This means your placemats can be easily recycled after use, thus reducing your environmental impact.

Waste reduction

By choosing disposable paper placemats, you also contribute to reducing waste in your establishment. Unlike reusable tablecloths, which require regular washing, paper placemats are quickly disposed of, thus preventing the accumulation of dirty linen.
Economic advantages of disposable paper placemats
Besides the advantages in terms of customer experience and sustainability, disposable paper placemats also offer significant economic benefits for restaurant owners.

Table setting and cost reduction

Disposable paper placemats are generally less expensive than buying and maintaining reusable tablecloths. Thanks to volume discounts for bulk orders, you can achieve substantial savings in the long run.

Saving storage space

Unlike reusable tablecloths, which require dedicated storage space, disposable paper placemats are easy to store and take up little room. This allows you to better optimize your storage space, freeing up room for other essential items for your business.

Reduction of labor costs

With disposable paper placemats, you no longer need to dedicate time and resources to the regular cleaning and maintenance of tablecloths. This allows your staff to focus on other priority tasks, such as welcoming and serving customers.
