Custom Printed Napkins UK

Custom Printed Napkins UK for Restaurants, Cafés, Hotels & Hospitality

Custom printed napkins turn an everyday hospitality item into a visible part of your brand. Packonic supplies branded napkins for UK restaurants, cafés, coffee shops, hotels, bars, pubs, catering businesses, takeaway operators and events, with white, kraft, 2-ply and Airlaid options for different service styles.

The current range includes compact napkins for drinks and desserts, versatile 33 x 33 cm formats for everyday table service, larger 40 x 40 cm dinner napkins, premium Airlaid napkins and dedicated 10 x 10 cm cocktail napkins. Businesses can add their logo or artwork using Pantone colour printing to create personalised napkins that fit naturally into the rest of their tableware and packaging.

Whether you are looking for napkins with logo for an independent café, printed restaurant napkins for daily dining service, branded paper napkins for several locations or custom napkins wholesale for higher-volume hospitality use, the right choice starts with the napkin size, material, fold and service environment.

Which Custom Printed Napkins Are Available?

Packonic's current UK collection contains several printed napkin formats rather than a single universal product. The range can be divided into standard 2-ply paper napkins, kraft napkins, premium Airlaid napkins and cocktail napkins.

25 x 25 cm White 2-Ply Napkins

25 x 25 cm custom printed napkins are a compact option for drinks, desserts, small appetisers and lighter food service. Their smaller format makes them particularly useful for cafés, coffee shops, bakery counters and other businesses where a large dinner napkin is unnecessary.

The current white 25 x 25 cm product is 2-ply and offers:

• 125 x 125 mm when 1/4 folded
• 125 x 62.5 mm when 1/8 folded
• 1 or 2 Pantone colour printing
• One-side flexographic printing
• Water-based ink
• Pure wood pulp

This format is a practical choice for businesses searching for smaller custom logo napkins without moving into a full dinner-size product.

33 x 33 cm White 2-Ply Napkins

33 x 33 cm printed paper napkins provide a versatile middle-size option for restaurant, café, lunch and general dining service. The current product uses a 2-ply structure and can be ordered with either 1/4 or 1/8 folding.

• 165 x 165 mm when 1/4 folded
• 82.5 x 165 mm when 1/8 folded

This size is particularly useful where one branded napkin needs to work across drinks, lunches and everyday restaurant tables without being as large as a 40 x 40 cm dinner napkin.

40 x 40 cm White 2-Ply Napkins

40 x 40 cm custom paper napkins offer a larger format for full meals, dinner service, restaurants, hotels, catered functions and more formal table settings.

The current white 2-ply product offers:

• 200 x 200 mm when 1/4 folded
• 100 x 200 mm when 1/8 folded
• 1 or 2 Pantone colour printing
• Water-based ink
• One-side flexographic printing

For businesses specifically looking for dinner napkins with logo, the larger format provides more physical coverage while maintaining a consistent branded table presentation.

25 x 25 cm Kraft 2-Ply Napkins

Kraft napkins provide a natural brown-paper appearance instead of the bright white base used on standard white napkins. The current 25 x 25 cm kraft version is 2-ply and is available with both 1/4 and 1/8 fold options.

This size works particularly well for cafés, bakeries, casual restaurants, coffee shops and food brands whose visual identity suits a natural kraft background.

33 x 33 cm Kraft 2-Ply Napkins

The 33 x 33 cm kraft napkin provides more coverage than the compact 25 x 25 cm version while retaining the natural brown-paper presentation.

It is suited to everyday restaurant and café service where businesses want printed kraft napkins rather than white paper but still need a practical dining-size format.

40 x 40 cm White Airlaid Napkins

Airlaid napkins are the premium option within the current range. The 40 x 40 cm white Airlaid product is designed to provide a softer, thicker, more textile-like feel than a conventional tissue napkin.

The current 40 x 40 cm Airlaid napkin is supplied in a 100 x 200 mm 1/8-folded format and supports 1 or 2 Pantone colour flexographic printing.

This makes it particularly suitable for:

• Hotels
• Premium restaurants
• Fine dining
• Wedding receptions
• Formal events
• High-end catering

Businesses looking for a more substantial personalised napkin for premium table service should generally compare the Airlaid option with the standard 2-ply dinner napkin.

10 x 10 cm Airlaid Cocktail Napkins

Custom cocktail napkins are designed for drinks service rather than full meals. Packonic's current 10 x 10 cm Airlaid cocktail napkin provides a compact premium format for bars, cocktail lounges, hotels, events and hospitality venues.

The smaller size works particularly well beneath cocktail glasses and alongside drinks or small snacks, while the Airlaid construction provides a more substantial feel than a basic tissue format.

For bars and drinks-led venues, branded cocktail napkins allow the logo to remain directly visible beside the drink throughout service.

Which Napkin Size Should I Choose?

Choose the napkin size according to how it will actually be used. A cocktail glass, coffee service and full dinner table do not need the same napkin format.

• 10 x 10 cm Airlaid: best suited to cocktails, drinks and small bar-service applications.
• 25 x 25 cm: a compact option for coffee, drinks, desserts, snacks and lighter service.
• 33 x 33 cm: a versatile choice for cafés, lunch service and everyday restaurant dining.
• 40 x 40 cm 2-ply: better suited to full meals, dinner service and larger table settings.
• 40 x 40 cm Airlaid: suited to more premium restaurant, hotel, catering and formal-event presentation.

The best custom napkin size is not simply the largest available. A smaller format may be more efficient for drinks service, while a larger napkin makes more sense when guests are seated for a complete meal.

2-Ply or Airlaid Napkins: Which Should I Choose?

Choose 2-ply napkins for practical everyday hospitality service and Airlaid napkins when a softer, more substantial linen-like presentation is required.

Choose 2-Ply Napkins If:

• You need napkins for regular restaurant or café service.
• You want several size options.
• You need a practical disposable napkin for higher-volume daily use.
• You want both white and kraft options.
• You need 1/4 or 1/8 fold choices on selected sizes.

Choose Airlaid Napkins If:

• You want a softer and more textile-like feel.
• You operate a hotel, premium restaurant or formal dining venue.
• You need a premium napkin for weddings or catered events.
• You want a more substantial 40 x 40 cm dinner napkin.
• You need a premium 10 x 10 cm cocktail napkin for drinks service.

The two materials therefore serve different purchasing needs. Standard 2-ply napkins are positioned around versatile everyday service, while Airlaid napkins are more appropriate when texture and table presentation are a greater priority.

White or Kraft Napkins: Which Is Better?

Neither white nor kraft napkins are automatically better. The right option depends on your branding, artwork and table presentation.

Choose White Napkins If:

• You want a clean and neutral background.
• Your logo depends on clear colour contrast.
• Your restaurant or hotel uses a bright, modern visual identity.
• You want access to the wider current size range.
• You are considering the 40 x 40 cm Airlaid premium option.

Choose Kraft Napkins If:

• You prefer a natural brown-paper appearance.
• Your logo uses simple or darker Pantone colours.
• Your café, bakery or restaurant branding suits a kraft aesthetic.
• You want the paper colour itself to become part of the design.

Packonic currently offers kraft 2-ply napkins in 25 x 25 cm and 33 x 33 cm sizes, while the white range also includes larger 40 x 40 cm and Airlaid formats.

Custom Napkins With Logo & Pantone Printing

Napkins with logo give businesses a simple way to place their branding directly on tables, counters, trays and takeaway orders.

Current Packonic napkin product specifications list:

• 1 or 2 Pantone colour options
• Flexographic printing
• One-side printing
• Water-based ink
• Pure wood pulp

This printing format is particularly suitable for logos, brand marks, short messages and clean repeatable artwork.

Custom logo napkins can be designed with:

• Restaurant or café logos
• Hotel branding
• Bar and pub logos
• Brand names
• Short slogans
• Event identities
• Simple promotional messages
• QR codes where artwork size and print clarity are suitable

For effective napkin printing, artwork should remain clear at the final folded size rather than being designed only around the fully opened napkin dimensions.

What Is the Difference Between 1/4 Fold and 1/8 Fold Napkins?

A 1/4-folded napkin has a more square folded presentation, while a 1/8 fold creates a narrower rectangular format. The best choice depends on table layout, cutlery presentation and how much visible print area you want when the napkin is placed in front of the customer.

For example:

• The 25 x 25 cm white napkin folds to 125 x 125 mm at 1/4 fold or 125 x 62.5 mm at 1/8 fold.
• The 33 x 33 cm white napkin folds to 165 x 165 mm at 1/4 fold or 82.5 x 165 mm at 1/8 fold.
• The 40 x 40 cm white 2-ply napkin folds to 200 x 200 mm at 1/4 fold or 100 x 200 mm at 1/8 fold.

A restaurant planning personalised paper napkins should therefore consider not only the opened napkin size but also how the logo will appear after folding.

Restaurant Napkins With Logo

Restaurant napkins with logo keep branding visible throughout table service while still performing a practical role for guests.

Different restaurant formats may require different napkins:

• Casual restaurants: 33 x 33 cm 2-ply napkins provide a versatile everyday format.
• Full dinner service: 40 x 40 cm 2-ply napkins provide greater coverage.
• Premium restaurants: 40 x 40 cm Airlaid napkins provide a more substantial feel.
• Quick-service restaurants: smaller napkins can be more practical where table service is limited.

For multi-site businesses, consistent printed restaurant napkins also help maintain the same table presentation across different locations.

Café & Coffee Shop Napkins

Cafe napkins and coffee shop napkins often need to work across several types of service, from takeaway coffee and pastries to sandwiches, desserts and seated customers.

A compact 25 x 25 cm napkin may be sufficient for drinks and bakery service, while cafés serving larger meals may prefer the 33 x 33 cm format.

Adding a café logo creates branded paper napkins that can sit beside coffee cups, cakes, sandwiches and takeaway orders without requiring an additional promotional item.

For a coordinated drinks service, napkins can also be used alongside Custom Printed Paper Cups so the cup and table-service branding follow the same visual identity.

Hotel Napkins for Dining, Bar & Guest Service

Hotel napkins can be used across breakfast service, restaurants, bars, lounges, room service, conferences and catered functions.

Because hotels often have several service environments within one property, it can make sense to use different napkin sizes for different areas while keeping the same logo and Pantone colour treatment.

For example, a hotel could use compact cocktail napkins in the bar and larger Airlaid or 2-ply dinner napkins in the restaurant while maintaining one consistent brand identity.

Bar, Pub & Cocktail Napkins

Bar napkins and branded cocktail napkins place your logo immediately beside the customer's drink. For drinks-led service, this can be more relevant than using a larger restaurant napkin.

The current 10 x 10 cm Airlaid cocktail napkin is specifically designed as a compact format for glasses and small snacks.

This makes custom cocktail napkins particularly suitable for:

• Cocktail bars
• Pubs
• Hotel bars
• Nightlife venues
• Event bars
• Drinks receptions
• Corporate hospitality

For businesses where drinks are the main customer interaction, a small logo napkin can provide stronger brand visibility than an oversized table napkin.

Catering Napkins for Events & Hospitality

Catering napkins need to work across different menus, table layouts and event formats. The current Packonic range provides compact, standard dinner and Airlaid options so caterers can select the napkin around the style of service.

For informal catering, a standard 2-ply napkin may be sufficient. For seated dinners, corporate hospitality or premium events, a larger 40 x 40 cm format or Airlaid napkin may better match the table presentation.

Businesses ordering printed catering napkins across repeated events can keep the same core branding while selecting different sizes for drinks, lunches and dinner service.

Personalised Event & Wedding Napkins

Personalised napkins can also be used for corporate events, receptions, weddings and large catered occasions. A logo, event identity, initials, date or simple message can become part of the table presentation where it fits the available Pantone print format.

For larger formal events, the 40 x 40 cm Airlaid product provides a premium option, while the compact 10 x 10 cm Airlaid format is better suited to drinks receptions and cocktail service.

Because current minimum order quantities are designed primarily around commercial production volumes, wedding napkins and event napkins are most relevant to larger events, venues, caterers and professional event operators rather than very small private orders.

Takeaway Napkins & Disposable Napkins

Takeaway napkins are a simple way to extend branding into collection and delivery orders. They can be added to food bags, meal boxes, coffee orders and takeaway packaging without changing the main food container.

For quick-service businesses, disposable napkins also help standardise what is included with each order. A printed logo keeps the service item aligned with the rest of the branded packaging rather than using an unrelated plain napkin.

Depending on the menu, branded takeaway napkins can support:

• Coffee and bakery orders
• Burger and fast-food orders
• Restaurant takeaway meals
• Catering boxes
• Food-truck service
• Delivery orders

Custom Printed Napkins or Printed Serviettes?

Napkins and serviettes describe the same general type of disposable table-service product in many UK searches. Businesses may therefore look for printed serviettes, branded serviettes, custom serviettes or printed paper napkins when searching for essentially the same type of branded hospitality item.

Packonic uses “napkins” as the primary product terminology, while the available products cover the restaurant, café, bar, event and hospitality applications commonly associated with branded paper serviettes.

Are Packonic Printed Napkins Compostable?

The current napkin product specifications list sustainability as compostable. The inspected white, kraft and Airlaid product pages also list pure wood pulp as the material and water-based ink as the printing ink.

Actual disposal requirements can depend on local collection and waste-processing facilities, so businesses should follow the relevant local waste rules rather than assuming every used napkin can enter the same waste stream.

Napkins that have been used with food, oils or other contaminants may also be treated differently by local collection systems.

Minimum quantities and delivery times can change, so the live product page should always be checked before placing the final order.

How to Order Custom Printed Napkins

Packonic's online process allows businesses to select the napkin specification and submit artwork before production:

1. Select Your Napkin: choose the size, white or kraft paper, 2-ply or Airlaid format and available fold.
2. Select Your Print Colours: choose the available 1 or 2 Pantone colour option.
3. Design Online or Upload Artwork: use Packonic's online design tool or upload your existing design file.
4. Complete Checkout: place the order using the selected quantity and delivery option.
5. Approve the Final Design: Packonic's design team reviews the artwork and sends a final proof for approval before production.

This process allows businesses to move directly from selecting custom paper napkins to approving the final branded product.

How to Choose Napkins for a Multi-Site Hospitality Business

Multi-site businesses should standardise branding first, then select napkin sizes according to each service environment. Using one napkin size everywhere is not always the most practical option.

1. Identify each service type: coffee, bar, lunch, dinner, takeaway or event service.
2. Select the appropriate size: smaller napkins for drinks and lighter service; larger formats for meals.
3. Choose 2-ply or Airlaid: match the material to the level of table presentation required.
4. Standardise artwork: keep the logo and Pantone colours consistent across sizes.
5. Plan ordering volumes: calculate usage by location before choosing wholesale quantities.

This gives franchises, hotel groups and restaurant groups consistent branded napkins UK customers can recognise while allowing each site to use the format most appropriate to its actual service.

How to Build a Complete Branded Table & Drink Service

Custom printed napkins work best when they support the wider customer experience rather than being treated as an isolated printed item.

1. Start with the napkin: select the appropriate size, material and fold for the service.
2. Coordinate takeaway drinks: use Custom Printed Paper Cups for branded hot-drink service.
3. Coordinate tables and trays: use Custom Printed Placemats and tray liners where a larger branded surface is useful.
4. Add hygiene products where appropriate: Custom Printed Wet Wipes can support restaurant, takeaway and catering service where an individually packed wipe is required.
5. Keep visual branding consistent: use the same logo treatment and brand colours across napkins, cups and supporting packaging.

For businesses planning several beverage products together, the Coffee & Drink Packaging collection provides a wider route into cups and related drinks packaging.

Which Table-Service Product Should I Choose?

Choose the product according to the customer interaction you need to support:

• Custom Printed Napkins – for table service, takeaway orders, cafés, restaurants, hotels, bars and events.
• Custom Printed Placemats – for larger branded table surfaces, tray liners and table presentation.
• Custom Printed Wet Wipes – for individually packed cleaning wipes used in restaurant, catering and takeaway service.
• Custom Printed Paper Cups – for branded hot coffee, tea and takeaway drinks.
• Custom Food Packaging – for Packonic's wider food-service packaging range.

This keeps the custom printed napkins UK category focused on napkin and serviette purchasing intent while connecting buyers to complementary tableware and packaging only where it is relevant.

Custom Printed Napkins for UK Businesses

Packonic's custom printed napkins UK range gives restaurants, cafés, coffee shops, hotels, bars, pubs, catering businesses and event operators a choice of white, kraft, 2-ply and Airlaid formats for different service environments.

Choose compact napkins for drinks and lighter service, 33 x 33 cm formats for versatile everyday use, larger 40 x 40 cm napkins for dinner service or Airlaid products where a more premium presentation is required.

Whether you need branded napkins for a restaurant, custom logo napkins for a café, personalised paper napkins for events, printed serviettes for hospitality service or printed napkins wholesale for several locations, the correct choice starts with size, fold, material, service style and expected order volume.
