Placemats
Placemats need to survive spills, wiping down and daily handling, so paper weight and finish matter more than for most print, a laminated or synthetic paper stock holds up far better under table service than plain uncoated paper.
If your placemats double as a menu or include information customers read while seated, keep the design clear and legible even after some wear, since these are handled and reused rather than replaced after a single sitting.

Restaurants, cafes, bars and other hospitality venues typically need print that can withstand repeated handling: menus, placemats, table cards and similar items benefit from a laminated, wipeable or food-safe finish rather than standard paper stock. Because menus often change seasonally, many venues order in smaller batches rather than one large print run.
