Placemats & Tablecloths

From dinner and luncheons to professional presentations and events, tablecloths give tables a polished look. Use them to keep surfaces clean and protected with a simple covering or use more decorative versions to add style and presence to a room. Available in multiple shapes and sizes, there is an option to fit every table and occasion. Use accessories to enhance the look and feel of place settings and to designate assigned seats for guests. Staples carries a broad range of table coverings, making it simple to find a solution for every occasion.

Tablecloths Protect Surfaces from Spills and Messes
Create a protective barrier around tables using table coverings. Plastic and plastic-lined options keep surfaces clean underneath and are disposable, making them easy to toss out for easy cleanup when done. They also repel liquids, helping to ensure tables remain stain free. Cloth coverings provide a soft surface to set glassware, silverware, and other fragile products on and also keep those items from scratching the table underneath. Use placemats to make cleanup even easier by placing them on top of these cloths and simply changing them instead of the entire table cover between meals. They help keep the table cover itself clean for longer use.

Table Covers Give Tables a Put-Together Look and Feel
From simple to ornate, table covers give dining rooms, banquet halls, and office spaces a polished, put-together appearance. Different materials work for various occasions. Paper and plastic covers are ideal for creating a vibrant atmosphere at birthday parties, family gatherings, or outdoor picnics. Linen cloths give tables a slightly more upscale feel, creating a clean, professional look. Decorative cloths make a statement, dressing up tables at dinner parties and special occasion celebrations. Create a cohesive look at events by covering all of the tables in the same cloth option. They create a complementary base layer for the displays and dishes that sit on top.

Accessories like Placemats Enhance the Look and Feel of Table Settings
Mats, table runners, and other decorative items allow individuals to put their own personal touch on the dinner table or event spread. They make it easy to either dress a simple table cover-up or to dress it down for more casual occasions with the selection of which pieces are incorporated into the setting. Decorative options add flair and interest to the table, while more basic pieces provide a crisp, clean surface to keep food and drinks off of the surface below. Use more festive, holiday-themed mats and table runners to instantly add a touch of holiday cheer to a room. Available in a variety of materials from paper to plastic to cloth and wood, there's an option to suit every table setting.

Choose from a Variety of Shapes and Sizes
Just like tables come in a range of shapes and sizes, so too do table coverings. From square or rectangular to oval or round, it's simple to find a shape that works with a specific surface. Use the measurements marked on the packaging or in the product's description to select a size suitable for a particular table.
