Profile Print is Duni’s custom-print service. We customise a variety of products for the hospitality industry. On this page, we focus on napkin customisation. You can read more about our other customisable products here.

You can customise napkins with your logo, artwork or patterns, short messages or text, QR codes linking to menus, offers or other digital content.

You choose the design, and the napkins are customised to your selected material, size, fold, colour and finish. Printed napkins can be adapted for different concepts and service settings.

You can print a wide range of brand elements on your napkins, including logos, artwork or illustrations, short messages or text, QR codes linking to menus, offers or other digital content.

Prints can be subtle or expressive, depending on your concept. Placement and size are adapted to the napkin format and fold you choose.

No. Profile Print custom napkins are used across a wide range of hospitality and foodservice settings.

In addition to restaurants, they’re suitable for hotels, cafés, bars, catering businesses, event venues and chains. Any concept that uses napkins as part of service can customise them to match their brand and setting.

The service works for both single venues and multi-location businesses, with options to keep designs consistent or adapt them for different concepts or occasions. For inspiration on how you can adapt different concepts to different areas of your business, read Florentine’s story.

Yes. You can print your logo, artwork, illustrations or text on your napkins.

This can be a simple logo, a short message, a graphic element or a combination of several elements. We adapt the placement and scale to suit the napkin size and fold you choose, so the design prints clearly and works well in use.

If you already have artwork, you can supply it digitally. If not, we can help adjust or develop a design that fits the chosen format.

Yes. QR codes can be printed on napkins.

They’re often used to link to menus, websites, booking pages, loyalty programmes or campaigns. We ensure the QR code is placed and sized correctly so it’s easy to scan and works reliably on the chosen napkin format and fold.

Printed napkins are available in several materials, depending on the look, feel and level of use you’re after:

• Dunilin® – a soft, thick material with a linen-like look and feel
• Dunisoft® – a delightfully soft material, suitable for both casual and more refined settings
• Bio Dunisoft® – a fully renewable, fossil-free material (customisation availability depends on market)
• Tissue – a practical option for everyday and informal use, available in different ply levels

Each material works with different formats and finishes. We’ll guide you towards the option that best suits your concept and usage.

The main difference lies in feel, durability and the type of setting they’re best suited for.

• Dunilin® – a premium material with a linen-like look and feel. Soft, thick and often chosen for fine dining or occasions where a more refined table setting is desired.
• Dunisoft® – soft and flexible, Dunisoft® works well across a wide range of settings, from casual dining to more elevated concepts.
• Bio Dunisoft® – a fossil-free, fully renewable alternative to Dunisoft®. It offers a similar look and feel, with a stronger sustainability profile. Availability for customisation may vary by market.
• Tissue – a practical option for everyday use. Available in different ply levels, where more plies provide greater strength and durability. Commonly used in informal or high-turnover settings.

Each material prints differently and suits different formats, so the right choice depends on your concept, service style and usage needs.

Printed napkins are available in several sizes and folds, depending on the material you choose and how the napkins will be used. Common options include:

• Cocktail napkins (smaller sizes for bars, lounges and drinks service)
• Dinner napkins (larger formats for table settings)
• Pre-folded napkins (for faster service and a uniform look)
• Napkin pockets (with or without cutlery, offering extra print space)

Sizes and folds vary by material, and not every combination is available in every material.

Yes. Selected printed napkins can include special finishes, depending on the material and format. Available options include:

• Hot-foil for metallic accents on selected products
• Art Print for full-surface designs

Not all finishes are available on all materials or formats. We’ll advise what’s possible based on your napkin choice and design, and help you select a finish that works both visually and practically.

The best format depends on how the napkins are used and the kind of experience you want to create. For example:

• Cocktail napkins work well for bars, lounges and quick service, where the logo or message needs to be seen instantly
• Dinner napkins suit table service and longer dining occasions
• Pre-folded napkins are practical for busy service, offering a consistent look with minimal handling
• Napkin pockets are useful when cutlery is set in advance and offer extra space for branding or QR codes

Yes. We can match your brand colours using Pantone or HKS colour references.

If you have defined brand colours, you can share the colour codes with us and we’ll use them as the basis for the print. This helps ensure consistent results across orders and formats.

Keep in mind that the final appearance can vary slightly depending on the napkin material and base colour, as these affect how colours are absorbed. You’ll receive a digital preview on what to expect before production.

Printed napkins can be produced using several print techniques, depending on the material, format and design:

• Logo and text print for clear, defined branding
• Art Print for full-surface designs and patterns
• Hot-foil for metallic details on selected napkin formats

Yes. The inks used for Profile Print napkins are food-safe. They are water-based and compliant with food-contact regulations, making them suitable for hospitality and foodservice use.

Yes. Full-surface designs can be printed using Art Print, depending on the napkin material and format.

Art Print allows patterns, illustrations or graphics to cover a larger area of the napkin rather than being limited to a logo or small placement. Availability and design possibilities vary by material, so we’ll advise what works best based on your chosen napkin and intended use.

Yes, provided the artwork is suitable for print.

For best results, we recommend supplying vector files (such as AI or EPS). The napkin material, base colour and print technique all influence the final look.

You can get started by contacting Duni’s customisation team here.

Once you’re in touch, we’ll discuss what you’re looking to create and guide you through available options. This includes choosing the napkin material, size, fold, colours and print style, and clarifying quantities and timelines.

You don’t need everything decided from the start. The process is designed to be guided and step-by-step.

No. Finished artwork is not required.

If you already have artwork, you can supply it digitally. If not, we can help adapt an existing logo, refine a design or develop something from scratch that works for your chosen napkin format and print technique.

The key is having a clear idea of what you want to achieve. We’ll help with the rest.

Yes. Design support is available as part of the Profile Print napkin customisation process.

We can help adjust existing artwork, refine layouts or create a design that works with the chosen napkin size, fold and print technique. Design support is focused on making your artwork work well in print, not replacing your brand guidelines.

Yes. You’ll receive a digital preview of your printed napkin before production starts.

This shows how the design will look on the selected napkin, including placement, scale and colours. Production begins only after the preview has been reviewed and approved.

The napkin customisation process follows three clear steps:

1. Design – choose the napkin type, material, size and colours, and share your artwork or design idea
2. Print – review and approve the digital preview, then production starts
3. Serve – the printed napkins are delivered and ready to use

The process is designed to be simple and guided, with clear checkpoints before anything goes into production.

The typical lead time for printed napkins is around 3 to 8 weeks, depending on the product, starting from final approval of the digital preview.

Lead times can vary slightly depending on the napkin material, format and print technique.

Yes. Printed napkins have a minimum order quantity. The exact minimum depends on the napkin material, size and fold. Minimums are set to ensure efficient production and consistent print quality.

The right quantity depends on how often you use napkins and how long you want the order to last.

As a general guideline, it’s recommended to plan for around six months of use, which often works out to approximately 10,000 printed napkins or more, depending on your setup. This helps keep production efficient and costs balanced.

We’ll help you estimate quantities based on your service volume, format choice and frequency of use.

Yes. Delivery to a wholesaler is possible. We confirm delivery details and timelines as part of the ordering process.

Yes. Profile Print napkins are a cost-effective way to customise your table setting.

Since napkins are already part of everyday service, customising them doesn’t require changes to your interior, menu or equipment. Costs depend on the material, format, print technique and quantity, and ordering for several months at a time helps keep production efficient.

Profile Print napkins are made from responsibly sourced materials.

All napkins are FSC®-certified, and many products are also certified with the Nordic Swan Ecolabel. The exact sustainability profile depends on the material, format and print coverage, and we’ll help you choose options that align with your requirements.

In many cases, yes.

Compostability depends on the material and amount of ink coverage and is assessed case by case. Designs with heavy coverage or certain finishes may affect compostability.

All printed napkins are FSC®-certified, meaning the fibres come from responsibly managed sources. Many napkin products are also certified with the Nordic Swan Ecolabel, which sets strict requirements for environmental impact across the product’s lifecycle. Specific certifications depend on the chosen material and format.

Yes. The inks used on printed napkins are water-based and follow local, national, and international laws on substance use for food contact materials.

Ink choice and coverage are also taken into account when assessing recyclability and compostability, depending on the material and design.
