Spandex folding chair covers are a god-send for party rental companies, banquet halls and other event venues as they help extend the life of a folding chair investment. They also provide a cohesive look for a wedding and can be decorated with décor to create a visually appealing space. Every product has its pros and cons, and while we don’t (currently) stock spandex folding chair covers, we know that our customers buy them and want to know what are the positives and negatives of the chair cover in question. We want to provide our readers with an unbiased look at the pros and cons of spandex folding chair covers so that they can decide if the wedding chair cover is a product they’d like to invest in. Here are the pros and cons of spandex folding chair covers.

Pros:

• Has a sleek, modern shape
• Easily decorated with sashes
• Machine washable
• Stain and wrinkle resistant

Cons:

• Only fits Samsonite style plastic folding chairs – doesn’t fit white resin or white wood folding chairs, or any padded folding chairs normally used in offices or churches.
• Guests can’t place their personal items under the chair
• More expensive than satin or polyester folding chair covers

On this date in 1867, our great nation of Canada was born. We’re so proud to be a part of this great nation. National Event Supply will be closed today re-opening for business tomorrow Thursday July 2nd at 9AM ET. Happy Canada Day! / Bonne Fete du Canada!

Restaurants, party rentals and banquet halls rely on glass racks to organize, wash, dry, store and transport glass stemware and other glassware. They come in a variety of compartment sizes from 9 compartments to 49 compartments per rack and can be open sided (i.e. have holes in the sides) or closed sided (i.e. no holes). If you’ve already been buying glass racks then this post isn’t really for you – unless you’re not happy with your current supplier. If you’re in the market to purchase glass racks, one of the most common things ask is where to buy glass racks in Canada?

This post will round up 4 other suppliers besides National Event Supply, who also sell glass racks in Canada.

1. s.t.o.p. Restaurant Supply

s.t.o.p. Restaurant Supply is located in Kitchener, Ontario and Sudbury, Ontario and caters to both commercial and retail customers. While Nella Cutlery and Hamilton Store Fixtures sell larger food equipment, s.t.o.p. restaurant supply focuses on smallwares, apparel & household items. S.t.o.p sells open sided glass racks in two sizes.

2. Nella

Synonymous with restaurant supply in Toronto, Nella Cutlery has two locations serving the greater Toronto Area with food equipment, refrigeration, bar equipment, material handling & storage, espresso machines, smallwares and knives with knife service. Nella sells closed sided glass racks in a variety of sizes and colours.

3. Brama Inc

Brama is located in Vaughan Ontario and features over 40,000 products in categories such as refrigeration, cooking, hold & warm, food prep, concession, ware wash, kitchen ware, dining ware and outdoor ware. Brama sells closed sided glass racks in a variety of sizes and colours.

4. Hendrix

Based in Brockville, Ontario with 10 locations across Canada, Hendrix Restaurant Equipment and Supply sells foodservice equipment, food prep, smallwares, chef knives, tabletop & serving, worktables & shelving, sinks & plumbing, furniture & fixtures, storage & transport, cleaning supplies, textiles & apparel both in their brick and mortar locations as well as online. Hendrix sells both open and closed sided glass racks in a variety of sizes and colours.

We sell catering glassware boxes and are currently expecting to begin selling closed-sided glass racks (like Cambro) at the end of July.

Hopefully one of these companies (if not us!) can help you find the glass racks you need.

Wedding Chair Covers are a god-send to banquet halls and party rental companies – not only do they help a bride dress up their ceremony or reception but they help banquet halls and party rental companies protect their investment on their banquet chairs. But there’s more than one kind of basic banquet chair cover and with limited budgets, there often is a choice to make between one kind of banquet chair cover versus the other. This blog post will list the pros / cons of polyester chair covers vs spandex chair covers so you can determine the best wedding chair cover to purchase for your venue or business.

Polyester Chair Covers

• Traditional silhouette
• Easily decorated with sashes and florals
• Machine washable
