Among the more than twenty colours of napkins for events you can choose the more classical ones such as Natural or Black, or be bold with more daring palettes such as Caribbean Green, Curry or Pistachio, among others.

Table napkins

In the table napkin category you will also find different sizes and formats, in order to choose the one that most meets your needs and characteristics of your establishment.

As well as the classical square table napkins (of 32x32cm and 40x40cm) at MY DRAP we have created the smart napkins, table napkins in a rectangular shape (of 20x40cm and 25x50cm) that bring benefits to the client and the professional alike:

• On being rectangular, these table napkins are perfect for placing on the lap practically and comfortably.
• On being produced with less fabric than the square table napkins, we can manufacture a product with lower costs, and without losing functionality!
• They can be folded easily to create a practical and elegant cutlery holder. In fact, MY DRAP can deliver the table napkins ready-folded like this, or in other presentation formats, whatever is most convenient for you!

For table napkins you also have a wide palette of colours available: from the lightest (Natural, Sand or Pearl Grey) to others with more presence and character (English Green, Bordeaux or Carmine Red), among many others.

Placemats and table runners

As well as napkins for events and table napkins, at MY DRAP we also offer an extensive catalogue of placemats and table runners, a practical and elegant solution for the table decoration in hotels and restaurants.

You can also customise them as you wish: choosing the type of fabric, colours, sizes, and if you want, add a design or corporate element.

In placemats you can choose from three different sizes: 40×30 cm, 48x32cm and 50x30cm, while the table runners measure 40x100cm. Both options give you great versatility and speed when laying and clearing the table, at the same time giving a touch of elegance and personality to the space.

Once again, you have a wide range of colours available to you with which you can create unique and stunning combinations!

The origins of MY DRAP, 4 generations dedicated to textiles

It all began in 1917, when Maria Bou and Antonio Guasch started up a family business in textile finishes in the old industrial district of Poblenou (Barcelona). Antonio’s premature death made Marta one of the first women entrepreneurs of the time.

Their sons, Cinto and Monti, grew up inside the family business. The eldest, who learnt continually and was completely self-taught, applied changes to the production processes that made the factory more flexible.

This capacity for adaptation and specialisation were also the keys in later overcoming the oil crisis or that of the explosion of Asian production, which destroyed other companies at the time.

Quite the opposite with Mercerizados Guasch, established in Monistrol since the 1980s. Thanks to its commitment to research into technology, the company saw a new product emerge: the first seamless textile cloths in a roll in the market.

Under the brand name of ROLL DRAP innovative seamless cotton cloths on a roll were presented, which guaranteed the maximum level of hygiene.

Then came MY DRAP, cotton napkins and placemats, also presented on a roll and seamless. It is a product you can find in top shops and emblematic hotels in cities such as Paris or New York. They are now available in our e-commerce shops for professionals and individuals.

Thus, the great-grandchildren of Maria Bou and Antonio Guasch continue working so that TEXIA continually evolves. This desire for progress is what enables the company to celebrate, today, more than 100 years of experience in the textile sector, always with a commitment to innovation, quality and sustainability.
