Materials and Structural Options
We make custom table tents using premium paperboard selected for rigidity and print quality.
Our standard offering is 350gsm coated paperboard that provides excellent stability when folded while accepting vibrant full-color printing. For applications requiring enhanced durability or premium feel, we offer 400gsm and 450gsm options that resist bending and create substantial presence.
The coating options include:
- Gloss finish for maximum color vibrancy
- Eye-catching shine
- Matte finish for sophisticated elegance
- Reduced glare
- Or soft-touch lamination that adds tactile luxury. Each coating protects printed surfaces from moisture
- Fingerprints
- General wear
- Extending the useful life of your table tents significantly compared to uncoated alternatives
FSC-certified paper options are available by specification, ensuring responsible sourcing throughout the supply chain. We use soy-based inks exclusively, eliminating petroleum-based chemicals while delivering rich, accurate colors that reproduce your brand standards faithfully.
The precision scoring ensures crisp, clean folds that create perfectly symmetrical displays every time.
Design Customization and Branding
Transform standard table tents into powerful brand ambassadors through comprehensive customization.
Our full-color CMYK printing capabilities allow you to incorporate logos, product photography, illustrations, and complex graphics with exceptional detail. Both sides of the table tent are printable, giving you multiple surfaces to communicate different messages or create cohesive designs that work from any viewing angle.
Popular configurations include A-frame designs with two visible panels, tri-fold constructions offering three display surfaces, and pyramid styles with four sides of messaging. We can incorporate QR codes for digital engagement, perforation for tear-off coupons, or sequential numbering for table identification systems.
Spot UV coating adds selective shine to logos or call-to-action elements, while foil stamping in metallic colors creates premium accents.
Our design team provides free consultation to optimize your layouts for maximum impact. We'll advise on appropriate font sizes for readability at typical viewing distances, recommend color choices that align with your brand while ensuring visibility, and suggest structural options that match your specific use case.
This same design expertise is available across our product range, including retail boxes and display boxes.
Size Specifications for Various Applications
We produce custom table tents in dimensions optimized for different environments and purposes. Standard restaurant table tents measure 4x6 inches when folded into A-frame configuration, providing ample space for menu items, pricing, and promotional messages without dominating table space.
Larger 5x7 inch and 6x9 inch formats work well for trade show displays or retail counters where increased visibility justifies additional footprint.
Compact 3x4 inch table tents are perfect for bars, cafes, or crowded buffet tables where space is limited but you still need effective messaging. For special events or promotional campaigns requiring maximum impact, we can manufacture oversized formats up to 8x10 inches that command attention from across rooms.
Height when assembled is equally important as base dimensions. Standard A-frame designs create approximately 3-4 inch vertical profiles, positioning messages at optimal eye level for seated customers. Pyramid and multi-panel designs can achieve greater heights for enhanced visibility in high-traffic environments.
We'll help you determine ideal dimensions based on your specific application, table types, and viewing distances.
If you need complementary packaging for promotional items or product samples, consider our gift boxes or kraft boxes to create cohesive branded experiences.
Eco-Friendly Production and Sustainability
Environmental responsibility is central to our manufacturing philosophy. Every custom table tent we produce is available with recyclable options by specification through standard paper recycling programs, ensuring simple disposal that supports circular economy principles.
Our FSC certification guarantees all paperboard originates from responsibly managed forests that maintain ecosystem health and support sustainable forestry practices.
Soy-based inks provide environmental advantages over petroleum-based alternatives while delivering superior color performance. These plant-derived inks are renewable, biodegradable, and don't introduce toxic chemicals into recycling streams.
The water-based coating options we offer are compatible with recycling processes, unlike some plastic laminations that contaminate paper recycling.
For brands committed to maximum sustainability, we offer:
- Table tents made from 100% post-consumer recycled content. While recycled materials may exhibit slight color variation compared to virgin paperboard
- They deliver equivalent structural performance while significantly reducing environmental impact. The material performs identically in terms of folding
- Stability
- Print quality
Our sustainability commitment extends across all product categories, from mailer boxes to specialty packaging, ensuring consistent environmental performance regardless of your packaging needs.
