Types of paper napkins by quality and use
Not all napkins offer the same performance. The choice depends on the type of service, the pace of the business and the perceived quality you want to convey. These are the most common types:
Tissue napkins
The most common option for high-volume service: light, functional and cost-effective.
Double Point napkins
Two layers joined by microdots: more body, softness and resistance.
Airlaid napkins
Greater absorbency and a cloth-like texture. Ideal for a more refined service.
Spunlace napkins
Superior quality with a premium finish: softness, resistance and excellent presentation.
For services where presentation is key, you can also consider options with a textile feel such as Like-Linen.
