1. Greaseproof Paper vs Butter Paper vs Wax Paper
Custom Greaseproof Paper (38gsm - 55gsm): A dense, tightly refined paper engineered to resist grease and moisture without plastic coatings. Widely used for lining burger baskets, tray inserts, hot deli wraps, and fish & chips wrapping. Certified 100% biodegradable and recyclable.
Custom Butter Paper (40gsm): A smooth, non-stick, translucent sheet ideal for butter blocks, cheeses, pastries, and cold sandwiches. Retains moisture balance while protecting bakery displays from greasy fingermarks.
Wax Coated Paper (45gsm - 60gsm): Wax-treated paperboard offering exceptional heavy moisture and wet grease resistance, perfect for juicy gourmet burgers, smoked meats, and fried chicken.
