COMMENT BIEN CHOISIR SES SERVIETTES DE TABLE ?
The linen developed and manufactured by Bergan for almost 30 years is a quality linen exclusively intended for high-end hotels and restaurants, and luxury hotels.
What are the dimensions of restaurant napkins?
In the catering industry there are different sizes of napkins, the most common being 45 x 45 cm and 50 x 50 cm. The different sizes can be :
- 45 x 45 cm
- 50 x 50 cm
- 55 x 55 cm
- 60 x 60 cm
But other sizes are possible, especially with tailor-made products.
At Bergan, the napkins are made to measure and can therefore be personalised to fit the size or shape of your tables. If you would like a special size, select "special size" in the drop-down menu of your selected napkin and indicate your dimensions in the remark field when validating the quote.
What material to choose for restaurant napkins?
The most common material used for table linen in restaurants is cotton. Cotton provides excellent comfort and is easy to care for (high temperature, calendering). For the customer, cotton is the softest material with a pleasant and effective wiping action. For economic reasons and ease of ironing, cotton/polyester blends are a good alternative. In Michelin-starred and gourmet restaurants, very fine 100% cotton is the rule, or even mixed (cotton and linen), 100% linen for the very high end and palaces. Bergan napkins are available in cotton, Egyptian cotton, linen/mesh/polyester and polycotton.
What colours to choose for napkins?
In restaurants, the colours of napkins are usually white for practical reasons and ease of cleaning. But the trend is towards colours to meet the wishes of decorators or restaurant chefs to match the decor of the premises. Bergan has made every effort to offer several napkin colours, including grey, ivory, beige or sky blue or dark colours such as brown, chocolate, taupe, or bright colours such as red, orange or yellow.
How to personalise napkins?
To personalise your napkins, several finishes are possible: the nature of the hem (simple or corner cap), the application of an embroidery (either of your logo or the name of your restaurant) and more elaborate finishes such as ladder day, double ladder day, and coloured drone. The higher the standard of your restaurant, the more attractive the finishes and materials are for your napkins. Refined napkins are a guarantee of prestige for your starred or gastronomic table. And for personalised napkins, careful folding will highlight the embroidery or weaving.
What is the difference in the range of my napkins? (bistro, privilege, premium)
The choice of napkins will depend on the concept or decoration of your restaurant: regional, industrial design, classic, mountain. For a bistro spirit, you can choose napkins made of raw materials (raw linen, gingham checks, etc.), which you may or may not associate with your restaurant's logo. For a classic or elegant decoration, your choice will be for noble materials (linen or cotton Egypt) with refined finishes (bourdon, embroidery, Venice day, etc.). Bergan offers 3 levels of napkins: Bistro, Privilege, Premium, depending on your style, consult us for more advice.
