What is the difference between a stretch table cloth and a throw table cloth
A stretch table cloth fits snugly over the table frame for a tailored, form-fitting finish, while a throw table cloth drapes over the front and sides with a more relaxed, traditional look. Stretch styles are popular with marketing teams and corporate exhibitors who want a stage-ready display at tradeshows and product launches. Throw styles handle multiple table sizes and suit sporting clubs, schools, and community organisations that need a quick, flexible setup. Both print in full colour and are machine washable.
Can I use a branded table cloth for both indoor conferences and outdoor activations
Yes, both stretch and throw table cloth styles from Corporate Essentials are built for reuse across indoor and outdoor settings. The polyester fabric handles repeated washing and packs into a dust-free zip bag between uses, making it practical for teams that move between conference rooms, community days, expos, and outdoor sports days across a season. We recommend checking surface conditions for outdoor setups to keep the cover clean and crease-free during the activation.
What size tables do your branded table cloths fit
Our current stretch and throw table cloth range is designed to fit standard six-foot tables, which are the most common size used at tradeshows, conferences, and corporate activations across Australia. If you need covers for four-foot or eight-foot tables, or for custom table dimensions, contact our team on 1300 85 50 35. We can advise on available sizing options and help you find a cover that fits your specific setup without excess fabric or an awkward finish.
How are branded table cloths decorated and will my logo colours print accurately
Both stretch and throw table cloths are decorated using full-colour sublimation printing, which bonds ink directly into the polyester fabric for sharp, vivid results across the entire surface. Sublimation handles complex artwork, gradients, photography, and multi-colour logos without the colour limitations of other methods. Because the ink becomes part of the fabric rather than sitting on top, the print holds up through repeated washing without fading or cracking. Our team reviews your artwork file and sends a digital proof before production, so you can confirm colours and placement are accurate.
What is the minimum order quantity for custom printed table cloths
Minimum order quantities for branded table cloths vary depending on the style and production requirements, and our team will confirm the exact minimum when you request a quote. As a general guide, custom-made promotional products like these typically start from a small quantity, though a minimum order value applies to ensure efficient production. To get accurate quantity guidance for your budget and timeline, call us on 1300 85 50 35 or submit a quote request and we'll respond with a clear breakdown.
How long does production take for branded table cloths and covers
Standard production for branded table cloths and covers is approximately ten working days from the date of artwork approval, subject to stock availability at the time of ordering. Freight and delivery time is additional to this window, so factor that into your planning if you have a fixed event date. If your deadline is tight, let our team know as early as possible. We'll check availability and advise on the fastest realistic path to get your covers delivered and ready in time.
Can I supply my own artwork, or does your team help with design
You're welcome to supply your own print-ready artwork file, and our team will review it to confirm it meets production requirements before we prepare your digital proof. If your artwork needs adjustments, refinement, or you'd like help setting up the design for a full-surface table cloth print, our in-house design team can assist. We work through any changes with you before production begins, so the finished cover accurately reflects your branding. There's no need to engage an external designer if you'd prefer us to handle it.
Are branded table cloths reusable, and how should I care for them between events
Yes, both stretch and throw table cloth styles are made to be reused across multiple activations, not discarded after a single event. The polyester fabric is machine washable, so you can clean it between uses and it arrives packed in a dust-free zip bag for clean storage. For best results, wash on a gentle cycle and allow to air dry before folding for storage. Teams that run seasonal programs, such as councils, sporting clubs, and charities with recurring fundraisers, find the reusable format saves cost and effort over time.
