Custom Printed Papers: Food-Safe Wraps, Liners and Tissue
Custom printed papers extend your brand beyond the box – the liners, wraps, and tissue that touch the product and finish the unboxing. From food-safe wrapping to retail gift tissue, they are an affordable way to look polished. Packaging Vista prints them in sheets or rolls with food-contact-safe inks; see our custom kraft paper and the full range below.
Key takeaways
- Papers brand the inside: liners, wraps, and tissue extend the look beyond the box.
- Match paper to the job: food wraps, baking papers, and gift tissue are all different.
- Food-safe where needed: food-contact-safe inks and food-grade stocks.
- Sheets or rolls: any grade and size, from a 100-unit minimum with no die fees.
What are custom printed papers?
Custom printed papers are flat papers – not boxes – printed with your brand for wrapping, lining, interleaving, and finishing. They are inexpensive relative to their impact, because a branded wrap or tissue makes even a plain box feel considered.
Types of custom papers
| Paper | Best for |
|---|---|
| Kraft paper | Liners, wraps, void fill, and a natural look. |
| Butcher paper | Meat counters, deli, and freezer wrap. |
| Parchment paper | Baking and heat-resistant, non-stick food prep. |
| Deli paper | Sandwiches, baskets, and grab-and-go. |
| Wax paper | Moisture-resistant food wrapping. |
| Greaseproof paper | Oily and fried foods that need a grease barrier. |
| Tissue paper | Retail and gift wrap that elevates the unboxing. |
| Wrapping paper | Branded gift and product wrap. |
| Sandwich wrap paper | Foodservice sandwich and wrap packaging. |
| Soap wrapping paper | Artisan soap and bath product wraps. |
Food-safe papers
Many of these papers touch food, so they must use food-grade stock and food-contact-safe inks. Greaseproof and parchment add functional barriers – grease resistance and heat resistance respectively. Our food-safe packaging guide covers materials and inks in detail.
Sheets or rolls
Custom papers come as pre-cut sheets or continuous rolls, in the weight your line needs – light wrapping tissue up to heavier liner kraft. We cut to your size, so the paper fits your baskets, trays, or wrapping station.
