Retail collections
Develop standalone runners, napkin sets or coordinated table-linen capsules with private-label packaging and SKU structure.
TABLE RUNNERS & NAPKINS · B2B
Table runners and napkins that connect colour, proportion and presentation across the collection.
AUROLRA develops runners and cloth napkins for retail, hospitality, weddings and events, with dimensions, fabric, colour or print, edge finish, labels and packing defined for the intended use.
- Custom runner dimensions
- Cloth napkin programmes
- Solid or printed
- Coordinated retail sets
COORDINATE WITHOUT ASSUMING
A shared colour does not automatically create a coordinated table-linen collection.
Runners and napkins are seen at close range. Their scale, hand, edge, fold, orientation and interaction with tableware often make construction details more visible than on a large tablecloth.
AUROLRA helps define each product separately while keeping the collection direction connected. This is especially important when products use different dimensions, substrates, prints or production routes.
BUYER & APPLICATION FIT
Supporting pieces for four distinct buying programmes.
The product should be specified according to how it will be displayed, folded, handled and replenished.
Restaurants & hotels
Define dimensions, fold, hand, care and repeat-order references around service and laundry operations.
Weddings & events
Layer colour, texture or print across long tables, round tables and place settings with venue-aware proportions.
Wholesale & projects
Coordinate assortment, pack counts, colours and dimensions for distribution, fit-out or recurring procurement.
PLANNING FRAMEWORK
Choose dimensions from the table and presentation—not from a product name.
Runner and napkin standards vary by market and use. Treat common sizes as references, then approve the intended finished dimensions.
Runner width
Compare the table width, place settings, centrepieces and whether the runner sits on bare wood, a base cloth or another layer.
Runner length
Decide whether it remains on the tabletop, drops over both ends or is used across the width for individual place settings.
Napkin dimensions
Plan the finished size around the intended fold, dining format, plate setting, pack count and laundering behaviour.
Cutting & shrinkage
Confirm whether dimensions are finished measurements and record tolerances or agreed test conditions for the selected material.
SPECIFICATION CHECKLIST
Write the product brief at finished-piece level.
A runner and a napkin may share a fabric, but they still need separate dimensional and construction records.
| Decision | Define in the brief | Useful approval reference |
|---|---|---|
| Product & use | Runner or napkin; retail, hospitality, event, rental or project application | Reference setting and use notes |
| Finished size | Width, length, shape, fold direction and quantity by SKU | Dimensioned drawing or size matrix |
| Material | Fibre, construction, colour base, hand, weight/texture and care expectation | Approved swatch or finished sample |
| Design | Solid, contrast, embroidery, repeat or placement; scale and orientation | Artwork, strike-off or colour reference |
| Construction | Hem, corners, edge, seam, fringe, label position and tolerances | Construction sample and written standard |
| Packing | Set count, fold, band/insert, barcode, unit pack, carton and destination marks | Packed reference and artwork approval |
FINISHES AT CLOSE RANGE
Review edges, corners and folds in the same detail as colour and fabric.
Napkin corners and runner ends can become focal points in a place setting. Fabric thickness, weave, fraying behaviour and print position can influence which finish is both visually suitable and technically practical.
Compare the selected construction on the actual substrate, open and folded. Record the approved hem, stitch, corner, label position and acceptable tolerances rather than relying on a general reference image.
- Review the finish on the selected fabric
- Check appearance both open and folded
- Confirm stitch and edge colour
- Record artwork direction relative to the fold
- Approve set count and packaging presentation
FROM ENQUIRY TO ORDER
Build a coordinated range one approved product at a time.
The exact route, responsibilities, sample stage and timing are confirmed for the selected product and order.
Share the collection direction
Provide application, table setting, desired products, dimensions, colours, quantity, destination and references.
Separate the specifications
Define material, size, design, construction, label and packing for each runner and napkin SKU.
Compare physical references
Review swatches, print proofs, construction samples or finished samples according to the project.
Approve the current matrix
Confirm product references, colourways, dimensions, quantity breakdown, packing and commercial terms.
Coordinate production and packing
Follow applicable quality checks and keep product, colour, size and pack identification aligned.
QUALITY & TRACEABILITY
Keep small-format details consistent and identifiable.
Checks remain tied to the approved specification, references and order-specific inspection scope.
Dimensional control
Review finished size, shape, squareness or alignment and agreed tolerances by product.
Construction review
Check applicable hems, corners, edges, stitches, labels, artwork orientation and visible workmanship.
Pack verification
Confirm colourway, size, set count, barcode, insert, fold and carton details against the current SKU matrix.
TABLE RUNNERS & NAPKINS FAQ
Useful answers before you enquire.
Exact feasibility, minimums, prices, sample terms and timing are confirmed after the product brief is reviewed.
Can table runners and napkins match a tablecloth collection?
They can share a colour, material or artwork direction, but each product should be evaluated for scale, dimensions, construction, substrate and use. Approve the finished pieces and collection relationship physically.
What runner size should I order?
Measure the table and decide how the runner will be used: centred lengthwise, dropped over the ends, layered over a cloth or placed crosswise. Then specify the finished width, length and quantity rather than relying only on a standard name.
Can napkins be supplied as retail sets?
Set counts, bands, labels, care information, barcodes, inserts and unit packs can be reviewed. Packaging feasibility, minimums, costs, artwork and timing are confirmed for the selected programme.
What edge finishes are available?
Possible finishes depend on the fabric, product, visual direction, quantity and production route. Share reference images and state which details are essential; suitable constructions can then be compared and sampled.
Can I use the same printed pattern at a smaller scale?
Scale adaptation can be reviewed, but it should not be assumed. Repeat, motif size, placement, orientation, seam/edge interaction and colour can behave differently on a napkin or narrow runner.
