Lunch Napkins

Buyer’s Guide to Choosing Lunch Napkins

Lunch napkins provide a practical mid-sized option for cafés, restaurants, caterers, food trucks and workplace dining areas. Insinc’s range includes 1-ply and 2-ply serviettes in white, natural, brown, kraft and unbleached finishes.

Most options measure approximately 300mm x 300mm when opened and are available in quarter-fold or eighth-fold formats, with carton quantities ranging from 1,200 to 3,000 napkins.

One-Ply or Two-Ply Lunch Napkins?

One-ply napkins offer an economical choice for takeaway meals, casual dining and high-volume service. Two-ply and quilted options provide additional thickness and a more substantial presentation for sit-down meals and catered events.

White napkins suit classic table settings, while brown, kraft, natural and unbleached options provide a more casual appearance. Recycled paper options are also available for businesses looking to reduce reliance on new paper fibre.

Quarter-Fold or Eighth-Fold Napkins?

Quarter-fold napkins create a wider folded square that works well beneath light meals or beside plates. Eighth-fold napkins provide a narrower presentation for cutlery, trays and smaller table settings.

Check the opened size, ply, fold and carton quantity before ordering. Several Castaway products are no longer available in New Zealand, but current alternatives include BioNapkin, Ecoware, Matthews, Vegware, Coastal and Green Choice products.
