Choosing the Right Event Table Covers
Whether you are hosting an intimate family gathering or a lavish business event, table covers help you achieve the perfect aesthetic for the occasion. They are also a versatile promotional tool that allows for customization per the event’s theme and color scheme. However, not all table linens are created equal. Choosing the right table cover for your specific needs revolves around considering several factors including fabric weight, print type and style. Additionally, the location of your event and the shape and size of the tables should also be taken into account.
Table Cover Size
Having event table covers that fit your tables perfectly is important for maintaining a clean, crisp appearance and making sure your branding stands out. A poorly fitting table cover can make your display look sloppy and unprofessional, or worse, it can pull attention away from your products or booth.
To ensure that your event tables fit properly, measure the height of each table before purchasing a cover. You can then use the corresponding measurement chart to determine the size of the cover that will fit your table perfectly.
Fabric
The most common fabric for table covers is cotton twill, which is both affordable and durable. This material also resists wrinkling and lies flat. Another option is a premium spandex stretch fabric, which offers a more form-fitting and sleek appearance. This option is ideal for events where you’ll be displaying spillable items, as it clings to the table to reduce the risk of slips and falls. Additionally, these fabrics are flame retardant and meet NFPA 701 Small Scale and California Section 13115 fire safety standards.
