Product Information

At about 11 inches long and 15 inches wide, they're a kid-friendly size, but they might seem small compared to standard placemats. The other potential downside we see is that the color options are pretty limited, so if you're looking to match a certain decor style, you might not find that here—but there are nice, bright choices that kids will love. If you’re worried about the environmental toll of cotton production, go for jute instead. Jute is a fast-growing plant, like cotton. In fact, it’s the world’s second most-produced plant fiber. Large placemats are equally practical during playtime and can keep paint, Play-Doh, glue, and other potential messes off the floor and table. These placemats usually have shapes, numbers, and letters printed on them to help kids learn in a fun way.

You’ll want to choose a material that matches your dinnerware choicesand your aesthetic, as well as an option that’s easy for you to clean. In casual restaurants, paper placemats are regularly used because they fulfill multiple purposes. They save hours of cleaning time and help to maintain hygiene standards. They are also a creative way of displaying the menu or advertising to keep customers updated with the latest promotions or specials. Family-friendly eateries usually have games and puzzles printed on them to keep children entertained. When it comes to the availability of fashionable styles, designs, and forms, the sky’s the limit for vinyl. They are the perfect table covering, one that enables you to really show off your personality through your choices. Among the more popular natural fabrics used for placemats are cotton and linen. Denim brings a playful and modern edge, while jute wins on sustainability. Cotton PlacematsPlastic placemats tend to be more affordable than fabric types and come in unlimited shapes and designs.

Cotton placemats contribute to the overall look by adding layering and texture. They can also add a dash of color for a more modern look. Of course, cotton placemats can also be found in various other colors and patterns. They can fit different, less formal settings, which makes them quite versatile. Denim Placemats Since they're cotton, you can count on them being soft, durable, and machine washable, too. The denim material is constructed with 80 percent upcycled cotton from the Guatemalan textile industry, and they're made with sustainability in mind. However, synthetic fabrics generally have a more negative environmental footprint due to the chemicals used in making them, so some people choose to bypass them. If this is a concern for you, natural fabrics should be your number one choice since less harmful chemicals are used in their manufacture. Their coloring also usually comes from a natural dyeing process. Leather’s standout characteristics are that it is waterproof, handles heat and cold well, and won’t easily slip off your table. The appeal of leather placemats lies in their versatility. They can be sophisticated and sleek or edgy and ultra-modern depending on the decor that they are paired with.
