Bespoke Printed Textiles – Tea Towels & Napkins
Printed tea towels and napkins are a classic choice for both retail and promotional use, combining everyday practicality with generous space for artwork.
Fabrics: Tea towels and napkins are available in standard cotton, premium cotton, unbleached/organic cotton (natural oatmeal finish) and linen union (50% linen / 50% cotton) for a crisper, more traditional feel.
Print methods: Complex direct screen printing (up to eight spot colours) or full-colour process printing are available, making them ideal for detailed illustrations, maps and paintings as well as bold logos.
Sizes: Tea towels are typically around 76cm x 48cm, while napkins are available in square formats from approximately 42cm up to 49cm.
Finishing & branding: Bespoke or standard wash labels, plus optional logo tags or tabs sewn internally or externally so your branding stays visible even when the product is folded or in use.
These textiles are perfect as special gifts, museum or gallery merchandise, farm shop ranges, charity lines and brand-led collections.
Printed Aprons – Sizes, Fabrics & Branding
Printed aprons are a popular choice for venues, food & drink brands, museums, schools and corporate hospitality.
Fabrics: Typically produced in 8oz cotton drill, available in bleached cotton (pale cream) or unbleached / organic cotton (natural oatmeal), with either polyester straps or cotton straps to suit the finish you want.
Standard adult apron size: Around 85cm high by 60cm wide (excluding straps), with adjustable neck via D-rings or optional fixed neck loops.
Pocket options: Available with or without pockets, including small or XL-size pockets for hospitality, craft or retail use.
Print options: Single spot colour, multi-spot colour (up to eight colours) or full-colour process printing; artwork can be placement printed or run all-over for a bold statement.
Branding extras: Logo tags/tabs sewn inside or outside, plus standard or bespoke wash labels to carry care instructions and branding.
