Back in February, we announced a number of new porcelain tabletop supplies we added to inventory. I’ve been neglecting our blog posts as we had two tradeshows to plan and attend at the end of February – the Rental Show and Restaurants Canada Show. Now that we’re back – it’s time to get back to our regularly scheduled blogging program. As I mentioned we have been hard at work ordering additional inventory and getting ready for the busy season. We recently received a container of porcelain restaurant tabletop supplies – updating our stock levels of Hotelier, Quadrato, and our porcelain platters and serving bowls, as well as introducing new pieces of inventory – which you can see here. Here’s a first look at the new Coupe dinnerware line we’ve added to our inventory!

We just received another container of event linens – on which were new colours of 30” spandex cocktail table covers, replenishments of our existing spandex and polyester linens and have brought in black spun polyester in a variety of sizes to fill the gaps in our spun polyester table cloths. We also brought in our newest product:

Gold Metallic Spandex Chair Sashes!

As of right now we currently only have Gold in stock. There is the option of us bringing in Silver in the future.

Additional Details:

• Double lined
• 190 gsm
• Comes with a silver non-removable plastic buckle
• Machine washable

As many of you know we’ve been expanding our event linen stock for over a year now. We brought in Spun Polyester, and added chair covers in polyester, spandex, and spandex ruched. We have also been adding to the different colours we offer – specifically in the most popular size spandex cocktail tablecover – the 30 inch.

I’m pleased to announce we’ve added 3 new colours to our current 11 colour offerings in 30 inch spandex cocktail table covers.

Baby Pink

Silver

Chocolate

They are made of 190 gsm spandex and feature reinforced feet to avoid any tearing or ripping occurring. Pricing starts at $23.50 for 1-29, $22.90 for 30 – 49, $22.29 for 50-99 and $21.69 for 100+.

We had a potential customer ask us a question regarding our plastic folding tables which we were 98% sure of the answer – but we weren’t 100%. That doesn’t sit well with us so we decided it was time to test it out. The client asked “Does food or wine stain plastic folding tables?” And from the best of our knowledge it isn’t extremely easy to stain the tables (we did leave a folding table outside for almost a year of Canadian weather) but it can definitely occur – particularly with some of the more difficult stains. So I thought I would test this out – determine whether the answer made sense – and if there was a way to fix the stain once it occurred. Check it out below:

1. I mimicked the spill occurring on the table. I chose Red Wine, Ketchup and Coffee for the stains I would put on the table. The reasoning behind those choices: I thought they would be the most common stains/spills that would occur during a special event.

2. I let the table sit 5 days. Here’s what it looked like after 5 days:

3. Then I wiped off the stains to check out the damage.

This picture shows the table after wiping off the coffee. I used water and a paper towel plus my elbow grease.

Here is the table as I’m wiping off the red wine (again with water and paper towel):

And how the “stain” (or lack thereof) looks once complete:

And here is what the ketchup looks like after a cleaning of water and paper towel:

Ketchup was the only substance that slightly stained the table – I’ve circled the stain in the photo because it is so faint that sometimes I thought my eyes were playing tricks on me.

Hopefully this test provides you the answer you required regarding whether our plastic folding tables stain!
