Round Table Protectors with Elastic Band
Our round table molton protectors are made from soft cotton Calmuc. They provide a cushioned layer beneath the tablecloth, helping to protect the tabletop and reduce noise from dishes and cutlery. The all-round elastic band wraps around the table edge, much like a fitted sheet, holding the protector securely in place.

What Are the Benefits of a Table Protector?
A cotton table protector lies discreetly between the tabletop and the tablecloth. Its soft, padded surface helps protect the table against minor knocks and scratches. It also provides a more stable base for the tablecloth, reducing the likelihood of slipping.
The additional fabric layer also makes a difference when setting the table. Plates, cutlery and glasses can be placed more gently and with less noise. Particularly on hard tabletops, the soft cotton padding creates a more comfortable dining surface.
Is a Cotton Table Protector Waterproof?
No. Our table protectors are made from cotton Calmuc and do not have a waterproof membrane or moisture barrier. The soft fabric provides cushioning against minor knocks and scratches and can initially absorb moisture. However, it cannot reliably prevent larger amounts of liquid from reaching the tabletop.
If you need completely waterproof table protection, you should choose a suitably coated protector instead. The main advantage of a traditional cotton table protector is its soft, textile cushioning, which provides a comfortable layer beneath the tablecloth.
Will a Table Protector with an Elastic Edge Fit My Table?
The stretch elastic edge works much like a fitted sheet. The table protector lies on the tabletop, while its edges are pulled down and slightly underneath the table. The elastic band holds the protector securely in place.
Before ordering, check the underside of your table. If the table legs, apron or other structural parts are positioned directly against the outer edge, there may not be enough space for the protector to wrap properly around the tabletop.
Is There Enough Space Beneath the Table Edge?
- Measure your round tabletop.
- Check the underside of the table edge.
- Table legs should not be positioned flush with the outer edge.
- The protector needs sufficient space to wrap around the tabletop.
What Size Table Protector Do I Need?
With an elasticated table protector, there is no need to calculate a tablecloth drop. Simply measure the diameter of your round tabletop. For example, if your table measures 130 cm across, choose the protector designed for a tabletop diameter of 130 cm.
Important: The stated size refers to the tabletop measurement after the protector has been washed. The natural shrinkage of the cotton fabric has already been allowed for during production. There is no need to order a larger size to compensate for shrinkage.
Round Tabletops
- Ø 100 cm
- Ø 110 cm
- Ø 120 cm
- Ø 130 cm
- Ø 150 cm
- Ø 160 cm
- Ø 180 cm
Select the size that matches your tabletop diameter. No additional allowance for overhang or washing shrinkage is required.
Why Should You Wash Your Table Protector Before First Use?
Cotton naturally shrinks slightly during the first wash. This expected shrinkage has already been taken into account when our table protectors are manufactured. As a result, a new protector may initially appear slightly larger than expected.
After the first wash at the recommended temperature, the cotton fabric shrinks to its intended dimensions and the protector reaches its designed fit. We therefore recommend washing the table protector before using it for the first time.
Questions About Table Protectors
Our round table protectors with elastic edges are designed for round tabletops. If an extendable round table becomes oval or elongated, the protector may no longer fit correctly. The actual tabletop shape and diameter determine whether the protector is suitable.
Clean up spilled liquid as quickly as possible. If the protector becomes soaked, remove it and check the tabletop underneath. Allow both the tabletop and the protector to dry completely before setting the table again.

Our protectors are designed for the stated tabletop diameters. Do not automatically choose the next larger size, as the fit also depends on the elastic edge and tabletop construction. If your table has different measurements, please contact us to check suitability before ordering.
