A Great Way to Promote Your Hospitality Brand

Would you have guessed five years ago that custom printed greaseproof paper would become the hospitality marketing tool that it is today?

You must have heard the cry of nostalgia - why can’t we go back to the ‘good old days’ when fish and chips came wrapped in copies of The Daily Sketch? Of course, for all kinds of reasons - not least of which that newsprint is pretty unhealthy stuff - those days won’t be coming back. The good news is that a look-alike alternative is now with us. An alternative with an astonishing array of benefits - custom printed greaseproof paper.

What are the benefits of greaseproof paper for presenting food?

To start with, it’s amazingly versatile. Use it for eating-in or take-away

  • Liners for Wire Baskets & Chip Buckets
  • Plate Liners
  • Burger Wraps
  • Pizza Box Liners
  • Hot Dogs Wraps
  • Sandwich and Panini Wraps
  • Fried Chicken Boxes & Bucket Liners

As a marketing tool, custom printed greaseproof paper is fabulous

What a great way to promote your brand! Thoughtfully designed greaseproof paper can be an absolute winner.

  • A greaseproof sheet will grab your customer’s attention from the moment they receive their food order.
  • Not only that - while they’re eating, they’ll peer at it, read it, turn it this way and that. Your brad will even become a conversation point with their fellow diners.
  • Your brand values will be right where you want them - a focal point for your customers for as long as their food is in front of them.

Greaseproof paper - the vegan alternative

Believe it or not, it’s perfectly legitimate for us to call our printed greaseproof paper ‘vegan’. After all, the paper itself and the ink we use for printing are made entirely from plant-based matter. We use accredited British Retail Consortium printers. In other words, they are approved by the BRC for printing in the food and drinks sector.

Custom printed greaseproof paper has practical benefits too

Greaseproof enjoys excellent thermal qualities - keeping chips, burgers and pizzas warmer for longer. Then there’s that special visual element. Who can ever resist a portion of piping hot fluffy chips served in a greaseproof paper cone or a tantalisingly tasty, paper-wrapped burger?

Greaseproof paper VS Grease-resistant paper - is there any difference?

  • Fully recyclable
  • Properly grease ‘proof’ - using high quality pulp the paper fibres become so tightly entwined that the spaces between them become smaller than a grease molecule.
  • Contains no harmful nastiness such as metals, glycol, and silicone
  • High KIT Rate, a measurement used to gauge grease resistance - won’t tear easily. won’t disintegrate and get stuck to food.
  • Thermal qualities keep food hot and fresh.
  • Natural printing inks made from edible ingredients including soy, starch, sugars, dextrin and tree resin.
