Table Covers

In order for the table cover to fit properly, it is best placed on the proper table size. The 6ft table cover is suitable for a table size of 72”x30”x30”, while the 8ft table throw fits a table size of 96”x30”x30”. Using the table throw on a table size that differs from these sizes will result in an improper fit and appearance.

The table cover is not designed to stretch. Trying to fit the table throw on a table that is larger than the throw’s measurements could cause damage to the product. If you are looking for a table cover with a more fitted appearance, check out our new stretch table covers.

Though these terms are sometimes used interchangeably, they may not be the same product or used for the same purpose.

A tablecloth is primarily used as a protective table cover at parties and gatherings involving food. Typically, tablecloths only cover the top portion of the table, with a few inches of material hanging over the sides.

Table runners are a decorative piece added over the top of a tablecloth or a table and normally do not span the full width of the table. Runners are used for decorative purposes much like a tablecloth or cover.

Alternatively, table covers (or table throws) are specifically designed to cover an entire table down to the floor for business or promotional use. Some table covers are general use and more akin to tablecloths. Our table covers are professional in both quality and design and intended to be used for events, markets, trade shows. By covering the entire table, trade show materials can be stored under the table and out of sight. 3-sided table covers are also available. This allows you to cover the front and sides of the table, while leaving the back exposed for easy access underneath the table, or to make it more comfortable for chairs to sit behind the table.

Table covers are commonly used in conjunction with other marketing displays at the entrance to trade show booths where visitors and passersby can interact with a company representative and take marketing collateral from the tabletop. A branded table cover offers a professional first appearance at any event or conference.

So while there may be a difference when it comes to these similar-sounding terms, if you’re looking for a branded table cover for an event or conference, then we have what you need!

We offer two sizes of custom table covers: 6ft and 8ft. The 6ft table cover is measured at 126.5” x 84”. The 8ft table cover is measured at 150.5” x 84”.

In addition we offer 3-sided table covers (sometimes called backless table covers). 3-sided table covers are offered in both the 6ft and 8ft size with measurements of 126.5 x 60” and 150.5” x 60” respectively.

You can print your custom table cover any color you’d like. This includes the branded portion of your design. It can include graphics, photography, text, and more. If you want a blank table cover, the material color is white.

Standard table covers are 4-sided and are the preferred cover for use in open areas such as foyers, entry halls, outdoor events and booths, and more. All 4 sides of the standard table cover can be customized with print as well as the top.

3-sided table covers (sometimes referred to as open-back or backless table covers) provide a professional covering for the top, front and sides of the table while leaving the back open for easy access beneath the table. 3-sided table covers work well for trade shows, booths, and areas where the table will be set up in front of a wall. You can print on all sides of the 3-sided table cover including the top.
