A pronounced interlaced weave gives this rectangular placemat a richer, more tactile appearance than a conventional fine-mesh table mat. The basketweave-style pattern creates visible depth across the surface, bringing the warmth of woven accessories to simple ceramic plates, wooden tableware and understated dining interiors.
The 45 × 30 cm placemat is available in dark and light color directions and weighs approximately 87 g per piece. Its PVC-coated polyester construction is commonly searched for as a Textilene-style placemat, making it suitable for restaurants, cafés, hotels, workplace dining and wholesale tabletop projects.

Basketweave-Style Texture with More Visible Depth
The defining feature of this placemat is its larger interlaced pattern. Alternating strands create a basketweave-style surface that appears more substantial and dimensional than the finer, closely spaced weave used on many standard woven PVC mats.
This structure produces a relaxed handcrafted character without introducing floral printing, metallic borders or full-color graphics. It coordinates naturally with wood tables, neutral ceramics, stone surfaces and casual dining accessories.
The dark option creates stronger contrast between the individual strands and works well with lighter plates and tableware. The light option gives the same woven structure a softer appearance that can brighten darker tabletops and compact dining areas.
The apparent color and weave depth may change with viewing angle and lighting. A physical sample provides a more reliable reference when the placemat must coordinate with furniture, menu covers, tableware or an established interior palette.
Textilene-Style PVC-Coated Polyester Construction
The placemat is woven from polyester yarn with a PVC-coated surface. This general material structure is commonly described in product sourcing as woven vinyl, PVC mesh or Textilene-style fabric.
The term “Textilene-style” describes the familiar woven PVC-coated polyester construction. It does not confirm that the raw material is authentic branded TEXTILENE® fabric unless corresponding material documentation is available for the selected order.
This product is also different from TESLIN® synthetic printing substrate. TESLIN® is not a woven yarn material and should not be used as the English product name for this placemat.
Although the surface has a textile-inspired appearance, it is not cotton, linen, rattan or natural woven grass. Its handling and cleaning characteristics are those of a coated synthetic weave.
Practical 45 × 30 cm Dining Format
The 45 × 30 cm rectangular format provides room for many standard dinner plates, knives, forks and drinking glasses. Its horizontal proportions are useful when utensils are positioned on both sides of the plate.
The straight rectangular outline is easy to align across restaurant tables, café counters, hotel breakfast areas and shared workplace tables. The continuous woven pattern also allows the placemat to be placed in either horizontal direction without relying on a printed border or directional motif.
At approximately 87 g per piece, the placemat remains relatively lightweight for routine clearing, cleaning and table resets. It has more visual texture than a fine mesh mat without introducing the heavier layered construction of faux leather placemats.
Buyers using oversized charger plates, broad bowls or closely spaced seats should evaluate the complete setting. Plate diameter, cutlery position, glassware and the distance between neighboring guests should be reviewed together.
Open Weave and Table Protection Boundaries
The woven construction contains small openings between the PVC-coated strands. These openings are part of the surface design and allow the interlaced texture to remain visible.
Water, beverages and thin sauces may pass through the weave during a larger spill. The placemat should therefore not be described as a completely sealed waterproof barrier.
After a spill, lift the mat and inspect the tabletop underneath. Clean and dry both surfaces promptly, especially when the placemat is used on natural wood, lacquered furniture, stone, glass or laminated tables.
The mat provides separation between everyday tableware and the dining surface, but protection depends on the type of contact. Sharp objects, heavy impacts and cookware taken directly from a stove or oven require appropriate additional protection.
Cleaning, Drying and Storage
Loose crumbs can be removed by shaking or gently brushing the placemat. Routine food residue and light oily marks can usually be cleaned with a soft damp cloth and mild detergent.
For residue trapped within the basketweave texture, use a soft cloth or gentle brush that can reach between the strands without pulling or damaging them. A brief hand rinse may be used when a more thorough clean is required.
After rinsing, remove excess water and allow the placemat to dry flat with sufficient airflow. Do not stack it while moisture remains within the woven openings or along the finished edges.
Avoid stiff brushes, abrasive pads, scraping tools, bleach, alcohol and strong solvent-based cleaners. Prolonged soaking, washing machines and dishwashers are not recommended.
The flexible mat can be loosely rolled for transport or temporary storage. Repeated sharp folding should be avoided because it may leave creases or affect the alignment of the woven strands.
Basketweave Placemat Solutions for Relaxed Dining Programs
This design is suited to table concepts that need more texture than a fine woven mesh but prefer a quieter surface than a printed or highly decorative placemat.
Casual Restaurants with Natural Interior Materials
The pronounced woven texture pairs naturally with wood, stone, ceramic and matte tableware. It can add visual warmth to a table without introducing another strong graphic pattern.
Cafés with Simple Plate and Drink Presentations
The uninterrupted basketweave surface provides a neutral background for coffee, desserts and small dishes. Dark and light options allow the same construction to support different furniture and tableware palettes.
Hotel and Workplace Dining with Frequent Resets
The lightweight PVC-coated polyester construction can normally be wiped or briefly rinsed rather than laundered and ironed like conventional cloth placemats. This supports dining areas where tables are cleared and reset repeatedly.
Homeware Collections Focused on Material Texture
The same 45 × 30 cm format can be offered in dark and light directions, allowing retail collections to emphasize contrast, woven depth and material character instead of printed decoration.
Project note: Confirm the plate size, tabletop material, seat spacing, selected color, weave appearance and cleaning routine before bulk production.
Custom Development, Wholesale and Sample Support
The existing dark and light versions provide a direct starting point for standard orders. Dimensions, colors, weave direction and logo feasibility can also be reviewed for project-specific wholesale requirements.
Dark and Light Color Selection
The dark option gives the basketweave pattern stronger visual contrast and creates a more grounded table presentation. The light option softens the texture and works naturally with darker furniture or understated dining interiors.
Physical samples should be viewed with the intended plates, tabletop and lighting. Screen images may not fully represent the relationship between the base yarn, PVC coating and visible woven highlights.
Custom Size and Weave Proportions
The standard specification is 45 × 30 cm. Alternative dimensions may be reviewed for narrow tables, trays, café counters or larger hospitality settings.
Changing the dimensions can affect the visible scale and balance of the weave. Sample review should confirm that the pattern remains consistent and that the finished edges do not interrupt the surface awkwardly.
Edge Quality and Dimensional Review
Sample inspection should cover the finished dimensions, corner alignment, weave stability, cut-edge quality and any normal production tolerance.
Projects requiring the placemat to fit within a tray, recessed table area or tightly controlled layout should define the acceptable dimensional tolerance before production.
Logo Feasibility and Visibility Planning
Logo application can be reviewed according to the artwork, selected color and intended production process. The pronounced woven surface may interrupt very fine lettering or small graphic details.
Simple logos with stronger lines are generally easier to evaluate. A small mark near an outer corner may remain more visible than a central logo hidden beneath a plate.
The final logo method, size, position and clarity should be confirmed through a physical sample before bulk production.
Wholesale and Repeat-Order Support
Wholesale and bulk orders can be reviewed for restaurants, cafés, hotels, workplace dining, distributors and homeware brands.
For wholesale pricing, provide the estimated quantity, selected color, required dimensions, logo artwork when applicable and delivery destination.
Repeat orders should reference the approved sample and confirmed specification so that the material, size, weight, weave direction, color and edge quality remain consistent.
Sample Confirmation Before Bulk Production
A physical sample can be used to confirm the finished 45 × 30 cm size, approximately 87 g weight, basketweave-style texture, dark or light color, edge finish and logo result.
Final production should follow the approved sample and confirmed order specification. Applicable material documents can be discussed when they correspond to the selected material and current production specification.
Basketweave Textilene-Style Woven PVC Placemat Frequently Asked Questions
What is a Textilene-style placemat?
It is a placemat woven from polyester yarn with a PVC-coated surface. “Textilene-style” describes the familiar woven vinyl construction but does not automatically confirm the use of authentic branded TEXTILENE® fabric.
Is this placemat made from Teslin?
No. TESLIN® is a microporous synthetic printing substrate rather than a woven PVC-coated polyester material. This placemat should be described as woven PVC or Textilene-style, not Teslin.
What is a basketweave placemat?
It uses visibly interlaced strands that resemble the over-and-under structure associated with basket weaving. This creates a more pronounced texture than a conventional fine-mesh woven placemat.
Is the placemat made from natural rattan or fabric?
No. It is made from PVC-coated polyester yarn. The woven surface may resemble textile or wicker materials, but it is not natural rattan, cotton or linen.
Can liquid pass through the woven surface?
Yes. Small openings between the woven strands may allow water, drinks or thin sauces to reach the table. Lift the placemat after a spill and clean both the mat and the surface beneath it.
How should a Textilene-style placemat be cleaned?
Shake away crumbs, wipe the surface with a soft damp cloth and use mild detergent when necessary. It may be briefly rinsed by hand, followed by complete flat drying before storage.
Will a 45 × 30 cm placemat fit a standard place setting?
It suits many standard dinner plates with cutlery and a drinking glass. Oversized charger plates, broad bowls or closely spaced seating should be tested as a complete table arrangement.
Can basketweave PVC placemats be ordered wholesale?
Yes. Wholesale and bulk projects can be reviewed for current colors, alternative dimensions and logo requirements. Pricing depends on the quantity, selected specification, sample requirements and delivery destination.
