Branded tableware sets, from custom placemats to matching coasters, are a stylish way to showcase artwork or branding on dining tables, desks, and boardroom tables.
They work equally well for retail ranges, hospitality settings, corporate gifts, and home use, combining everyday practicality with high‑quality printed finishes.
Custom table mats & coaster sets can be supplied as individual items or coordinated gift sets. Melamine top surface on a rigid board core, usually with a cork or baize backing for a non‑slip, protective finish.
They are heat‑resistant up to around 140–145°C, plus scratch‑ and stain‑resistant surfaces that wipe clean easily – ideal for everyday tableware.

Tableware - Place mats and Coasters
Print options: Full‑colour edge‑to‑edge printing for photos, illustrations, patterns, branding, or logos, with the option of matt or gloss finish. Customers can supply their own artwork or photography – countryside scenes to brand logos or designs – to create unique table mats and coasters that feel both personal and premium. Choose from a matt or gloss surface to suit the artwork style – matt works well for softer art; gloss can make colours pop.
Uses: Retail merchandise, visitor centres, farm shops, museums, hospitality venues, corporate gifts, and stylish home dining.
Place mats (table mats)
Custom printed table mats (also called place settings or placemats) protect the table while framing each place setting with your chosen design.
These table mats are popular as complete sets for retail sale or as branded tableware for restaurants, hotels, and corporate dining areas.
Common rectangular sizes around 292 x 216 mm, with other formats (square or oval) available depending on the range.
Coaster sets
Matching melamine coasters complete the place setting and are perfect on desks, coffee tables, and bedside tables as well as dining tables.
They are heat resistant, designed to handle hot cups and mugs while protecting the surface beneath.
Supplied in sets of 4, 6, or 8, either boxed or banded, ideal for gifting and retail.
The same full‑colour printing used on placemats can be applied to coasters, ensuring a coordinated look across your tableware collection.
