Disposable Napkins Supplies and Equipment

Find the best disposable napkins for your business

By Kristina Seleshanko
If you run a restaurant or other food business, you've probably at least considered looking into disposable napkins supplies and equipment. Disposable napkins save on laundry costs and water use; and since they are for one-time use, they are also sanitary. But disposable napkins don't have to be ordinary. There is a wide variety of cheap napkins available in today's marketplace.

Napkins say a lot about your business. Plain white, thin napkins tell customers your food should be cheap. Disposable napkins with a bit of a design say you care about details. Personalized cocktail napkins say your business has class. So before you grab just any old napkins off the shelf, take a few minutes to consider the various types available and what sort of equipment you'll need to go with them. This includes:

1. Standard disposable napkin types, including those in colors
and with simple designs,

2. Personalized beverage napkins,

3. And dispensers for disposable napkins.

 

Look at standard disposable napkins in all their varieties

Most businesses using disposable napkins choose plain white, bulk, industrial-style napkins, such as are commonly found in fast food restaurants and diners. Only a little more expensive, but considerably more attractive, are bulk napkins in solid colors or simple patterns like moire and checks, which are great as cheap wedding napkins or restaurant napkins. There are even paper napkins made to look like linen, suitable as both restaurant and wedding napkins.
Try: Catering Supplies sells bulk industrial napkins, plus napkins in plain colors, moire patterns and more. My Paper Shop.Com offers linen-like paper napkins, recycled white napkins and disposable napkins in a variety of colors.

Consider personalized paper napkins for your bar, restaurant or wedding business

Custom napkins used to be standard for better restaurants, hotels and bars. Since vintage is stylish again, why not reintroduce this classy trend? Cheap personalized napkins are available from many sources and appear more expensive than almost any plain napkin. Personalized napkins are also ideal for your catering business as discount wedding napkins.
Try: Absorbent offers custom, white single-ply napkins with embossed edges. Napkins-Only provides custom napkins in nearly any size, color and style.

Don't forget dispensers for disposable napkins

Napkin dispensers, whether for your staff or customers, are essential. Stainless steel styles are the most commonly seen, but you may also choose chrome, plastic or wood in many shapes and styles. Be sure to have plenty on hand, and you'll save your employees and customers a good deal of frustration.
Try: ReStockIt.com sells wood, chrome, plastic and stainless steel napkin dispensers at wholesale prices. Central Restaurant Products offers disposable napkin dispensers in colored plastic, a high-capacity dispenser on a stand, plus other, standard types of dispensers.
