Custom Catering Products
Catering products are widely used at corporate events, festivals, hospitality venues and community functions where branded food and beverage service items are required. We supply branded items including Custom Napkins and Printed Paper Plates that help maintain a consistent aesthetic throughout a venue. Catering products are used throughout events, functions and hospitality settings, making them an ideal choice for displaying logos, event branding and promotional messages.
The success of a catering promotion relies on the structural strength of the materials and the safety of the inks. We focus on high-gsm paper and compostable coatings that handle hot and oily foods without flexing or tearing. Whether you are providing 3-ply napkins for a gala dinner or lightweight plates for a community BBQ, we help you choose the products that guests value for their reliability and professional finish.

Comparing Cups, Plates & Napkins
Disposable food service products are designed for different beverages, food types and serving environments. Cups are commonly used for hot and cold drinks, while paper dessert cups are intended for ice cream, yoghurt, fruit and other individual servings. Plates vary in size and construction depending on the type of food being served, with paper and plastic options offering different characteristics in terms of rigidity, weight and disposal requirements. Napkins are used alongside food and beverage products to assist with cleanliness and presentation.
Material selection can influence how these products perform during use. Paper cups often incorporate internal linings to help contain liquids, while paper plates may use thicker construction to support heavier foods. Plastic plates are generally more resistant to moisture and bending, making them suitable for meals that require greater durability. Understanding the differences between cups, plates, napkins and dessert cups helps explain why specific products are used across catering functions, outdoor events, hospitality venues, schools and workplace gatherings.
Many paper plates are designed to handle hot foods, although performance varies depending on thickness, construction and any protective coatings used. Heavier meals and foods with sauces may require thicker plate designs for improved rigidity.
Paper plates are often chosen for their lighter weight and disposability, while plastic plates generally offer greater resistance to bending and moisture. The most suitable option depends on the type of food being served and the duration of the event.
Many paper cups are manufactured to accommodate both hot and cold beverages, although some products are specifically designed for one application. Internal linings help prevent liquids from soaking into the paper structure.
Heat transfer is influenced by cup construction, wall thickness and whether the cup incorporates single-wall, double-wall or insulated designs. Additional layers can help reduce the amount of heat transferred to the user's hands.
Napkin size is often influenced by the type of food being served and the formality of the event. Larger napkins are commonly used for sit-down meals, while smaller cocktail and beverage napkins are often selected for drinks service and finger food.
No. While dessert cups are commonly used for ice cream, yoghurt and sweet dishes, they are also frequently used for fruit servings, tasting portions, appetisers and sample foods at events and catering functions.
Extended exposure to moisture, oils and sauces can gradually weaken paper-based products. Plate thickness, surface coatings and the type of food being served can all influence how well a paper plate maintains its strength during use.
Our product specialist, Catherine, says: "One of the most common mistakes is focusing on plate diameter while overlooking plate construction. Two plates may be the same size, yet perform very differently when holding heavier foods. In my experience, thickness and rigidity are usually more important than plate size when selecting products for catered meals, barbecues and buffet-style events."
