The art of French table setting and its table linen

French gastronomy was inscribed on the Representative List of the Intangible Cultural Heritage of Humanity in 2010. A true institution, it symbolizes a refined and convivial culture. Table arts are undoubtedly part of this ancient heritage. Thus, the choice of table linen is now a crucial step for a French restaurant.

Non-woven napkins for restaurants: elegance and practicality

Our products combine the advantages of non-woven material and Airlaid technology for a stunning fabric effect. This original material deceives the senses by offering the user the comfort of a silky touch and the elegant appearance of weaving without containing a single woven fiber! Moisture-resistant, elastic, and economical, non-woven napkins for restaurants are an interesting alternative to traditional table linen.

Specializing in the high-end disposable linen niche, founder Françoise PAVIOT ensures 100% Made in France production. With the help of her two daughters, she has gradually developed colorful paper napkin models that meet current expectations. Today, we are proud to offer catering and hospitality professionals a collection adapted to their daily uses.

Table linen for restaurants

Guests follow a whole protocol when sitting down to eat. Table setting contributes to the savoir-vivre and elegance of French culture. The use of a tablecloth, the arrangement of cutlery, or the way napkins are used are among the major rules governing the art of table setting.

The use of table linen saw a real boom during the Renaissance. It was in the 18th century that it became a marker of social class and even part of young brides' trousseaux. Since the early 20th century, patterns, colors, and formats of table linen have multiplied and diversified. We now find tablecloths, napkins, and table runners for all occasions and tastes.

Table linen for restaurants is an opportunity to stand out. The design of napkins or table runners represents the establishment's identity. High-end disposable table art products are both practical and aesthetic.

To each restaurant its table linen

Each restaurant has a unique identity that it expresses across all its media. Personalized table linen is much appreciated by customers. In our special professional catering collection, you will find many different universes.

Regional cuisine, attached to French traditions, can be highlighted by bistro-style table linen. A family-friendly and modern brasserie can opt for a vibrant universe with polka dot patterns or geometric lines. A gourmet restaurant will undoubtedly prefer the sobriety of a plain color or discreet intertwined lines. Are you an establishment with an original theme? Seaside or mountain chalet ambiance, we adapt to your desires!

Focus on very different collections

Françoise PAVIOT is proud to present the richness of its special professional catering collection. Here are two examples of themes you can find in our catalog:

Le bouchon lyonnais: stemming from an ancient gastronomic tradition, the bouchon lyonnais is a warm and authentic restaurant. Quenelles, calf's head, or praline tart are all dishes that honor the era of the canuts. We offer red gingham non-woven napkins, characteristic of bouchon decor. All that's missing are the wine bottles to complete the setting!

Multi dots: it was in the 1930s that the polka dot pattern became popular through Polka clubs. In the textile sector, polka dots are still in vogue today. For family brasseries, this pattern is ideal. In purple, orange, and even fire engine red, find the polka dot that suits you in our catalog.
