Choosing a folding table that’s right for your business and budget will save time on event setup and will supply years of maintenance-free use. Whether you’re picking out folding tables for parties at a sprawling conference center or everyday use at a small-town firehouse, there’s one thing we know for certain: you need something that’s engineered for durability, sturdiness, and reliability. Because a flimsy folding table isn’t a table—it’s just a hazard.

- ABS
- Madera PRO
- Madera MAX
- Reveal
- Reveal MAX
Most Durable: ABS Folding Tables (Rectangular, Round, and more)
ABS Tables feature a high-impact ABS plastic tabletop, which (combined with the sub-surface design) provides moderate heat shielding. The finished table edge reinforces the strength of the table and resists damage from impact. Replaceable rubber anti-skid pads make stacking the tables safer while helping prevent damage.
These ultra-durable tables are available in six tabletop colors and textures and various tabletop styles and size options. The tables feature different leg styles and base options—all made with powder-coated steel frames in three colors.
ABS Tables come in various shapes and sizes, including rectangle, round, cocktail, and more.
Best Light Laminate Event Tables: Madera PRO Tables
Madera PRO Round Tables offer a value option in a durable laminate table. This table style comes in a banquet round that is measurably lighter than other similar linenless tables on the market. The easy-grip aluminum runners make the table lighter and enable safe and efficient carrying.
The stain-resistant Wilsonart® laminate surface and powder-coated steel legs make this a durable option for facilities that need to turn over rooms quickly. The non-marring, injection-molded polypropylene glides on the table legs prevents streaking and scratching on your flooring.
Best Rectangular Linenless Table: Madera MAX Folding Tables
Madera MAX is a high-end linenless folding table with a square edge and a clean, modern design. The scratch-resistant laminate tabletop surface and resin edge are highly durable and look beautiful with or without table linens.
The tables come in a rectangular model with six tabletop colors and a classic black edge and powder coated legs. Easy-grip aluminum runners make setup and takedown easy and safe, while non-marring leg glides prevent damage to the flooring.
Most Versatile: Reveal Folding Tables
The multi-functional Reveal Linenless Table line helps facilities create an upscale look with premium laminate finishes to match any décor. Reveal folding tables come in many shapes and sizes, including the Duo, Flip, Fixed Width, Round, Rectangle, Cocktail, Mobile Buffet, and more.
Reveal folding tables come with a seamless tabletop in all sizes, including a 72-inch (182.8 cm) round banquet table. This feature makes the tabletop easier to clean and prevents peeling and corrosion.
Beneath the decorative surface, the tabletop consists of a commercial-grade, high-pressure laminate fastened to a lightweight aluminum frame. The aluminum legs feature a patented snap-lock design that makes them fold down. The snap-lock eliminates pinch points and safety hazards — just what you need if you use folding tables for parties.
Best Indoor/Outdoor Event Tables: Reveal MAX Folding Tables
Reveal MAX is a top-of-the-line linenless table ideal for indoor and outdoor events. The Reveal MAX line features stylish laminate tabletops and attractive legs. This folding table is available in all sizes and features a seamless top for easy cleaning. The UV-resistant laminate tabletop and rust-proof powder-coated legs make it an ideal table for indoor and outdoor use.
The commercial-grade laminate tabletop surface and matching edge are attractive and durable. The legs fold compactly within the frame for easy storage, and the patented snap-lock feature makes setup and takedown safe and easy.
The Reveal MAX Table comes in rectangular, round, and cocktail shapes and in several sizes, up to a 72-inch diameter. The six tabletop laminate color options and three powder-coated color options for the aluminum table legs or base are sure to match your décor and make an aesthetically pleasing addition to any room or outdoor event setup. This table line is suitable for occasional outdoor use but should not be left outdoors for extended periods of time.
