Premium Polyester Linen Collection

Premium polyester is the heavier-weight tier of CV Linens' polyester line, built with a tighter weave and a matte, cotton-like finish rather than the thinner, slightly shinier fabric used in the economy tier. This collection covers the full table setup in that heavier fabric: tablecloths, table runners, napkins, and coordinating chair sashes, all designed to hold complex folds and resist wrinkling through repeated event use.

Quick facts:

• Material: 100% polyester
• Fabric weight: Approximately 200 GSM (premium tier), compared to roughly 125 GSM for the economy tier
• Tablecloth sizes: Round 90" to 132"; rectangular 60"x102" to 90"x156"; square 54"x54" and 72"x72"
• Napkin size: 20"x20", hemmed edge
• Table runner size: Approximately 13" x 108", hemmed edge
• Care: Machine washable and dryable; do not bleach

Tablecloths

Available in round sizes from 90" to 132", rectangular sizes from 60"x102" to 90"x156", and square sizes at 54"x54" and 72"x72", all sold individually in a polybag. The Premium Polyester 120" Round Tablecloth in Black is a good reference point: seamless construction, a smooth, slightly lustrous finish, and a clean, floor-length drape on the tables it's sized for. Browse the full range in the tablecloths collection.

Table Runners

Measuring approximately 13" wide by 108" long with a hemmed edge, these runners are made from a 125 GSM polyester weave, lighter than the premium tablecloth fabric but still durable enough for repeated washing. The Forest Green Polyester Table Runner is a representative example, and the full color range is available in the table runners collection.

Napkins

A 20"x20" hemmed square, made from the same heavier premium polyester weave as the tablecloths, which gives it enough body to hold detailed folds rather than going limp. The Premium Polyester Napkin 20"x20" in Black shows the standard construction across the line, and more colors are available in the napkins collection.

Chair Sashes and Linens

To complete the table setting, this fabric line coordinates with chair covers and chair sashes sold in the same color palette, letting you match your tablecloth, runner, and napkin colors through to the seating. Browse the full range in the chair linens collection.

Premium vs. Economy Polyester

The word "premium" here refers to a specific, measurable difference in the fabric, not just a marketing label. Premium polyester runs approximately 200 GSM with a tighter weave and a matte, cotton-like finish that drapes cleanly and holds complex folds. Economy polyester is thinner, at roughly 125 GSM, with a slightly more synthetic sheen, which makes it more budget-friendly but less substantial for events where the tablecloth needs to look opaque and hold its shape without a liner underneath.

Sizes and Fit

For tablecloths, match round sizes to your table diameter (90" for a 60" table with a lap-length drop, up to 132" for larger round tables with a floor-length drop) and rectangular sizes to your table length (60"x102" up to 90"x156" for 8ft tables). Square sizes (54"x54", 72"x72") are typically used as overlays rather than a standalone base cloth. Napkins at 20"x20" and runners at roughly 13"x108" are standard across the collection regardless of which tablecloth size you choose.

Care Instructions

All pieces in this collection are machine washable. Wash in cool or warm water on a gentle cycle, avoid bleach, and dry on low to medium heat, removing items promptly once the cycle ends to prevent set-in wrinkles. If a piece needs extra smoothing before an event, iron or steam on medium-to-high heat, though the fabric's tight weave generally resists visible wrinkling better than lighter or economy fabrics.

How to Style Your Premium Polyester Table

A few ways to build a coordinated setup:

• Layer a table runner down the center of the tablecloth in a matching tone for a subtle, elegant look, or a contrasting color for more visual separation
• Fold napkins into a classic rectangle or simple fan and either tuck them into a charger plate or place them beside the flatware
• Add charger plates in gold or silver on top of the tablecloth at each place setting for extra depth
• Coordinate chair sashes or chair covers in the same or a complementary color so the seating ties back to the table

Frequently Asked Questions

What sets premium polyester apart from standard or economy polyester?

Premium polyester is approximately 200 GSM, with a tighter weave and a matte, cotton-like finish. Economy polyester is lighter at roughly 125 GSM and has a thinner, slightly shinier appearance, while the heavier premium fabric generally provides a cleaner drape and holds structured folds more effectively.

What sizes can I find in this collection?

Tablecloths are available in round sizes from 90" to 132", rectangular sizes from 60" x 102" to 90" x 156", and square sizes of 54" x 54" and 72" x 72". Napkins measure 20" x 20", while table runners are approximately 13" x 108".

Can these event linens be machine washed?

Yes. Machine wash them in cool or warm water on a gentle cycle, avoid bleach, and dry on low to medium heat. If needed, use a medium-to-high heat setting when ironing or steaming to smooth the fabric before an event.

Can I combine premium and economy polyester linens?

Yes, although the two fabrics have noticeable differences in weight and finish. Using premium polyester on focal tables such as the head or sweetheart table and economy polyester on guest tables can help create visual variation while keeping the overall linen budget manageable.

Are matching chair covers and sashes available?

Yes. Coordinating chair covers and chair sashes are available in the same color palette, making it easier to carry your table linen colors through to the seating area.

What size tablecloth works for a 60" round table?

A 90" round tablecloth provides approximately a 15" drop on a standard 60" round table with a 30" table height. For a floor-length appearance, consider a 108" or 120" round tablecloth instead.

Are napkins and runners sold individually?

Yes. Napkins and table runners in this collection are sold as individual pieces, with 1 pc per order. Plan your quantities according to the number of guests and tables you need to cover.
