Forward Print Scotland's branded printed natural greaseproof has a 40gsm thickness Thre pre-cut sheet sizes are available to fit the dimensions of your products and provide a quick packaging. Purchased by busy kitchens that cater toward takeaway deliveries, for example. The paper is made from a natural pulp with fibres that have been thoroughly beaten to produce a closed structure which grants the product its resistance to oils and fats. It is worth noting that when it comes into contact with water, these properties disappear.

Any moist or potentially greasy food products will benefit hugely from a greaseproof paper wrapping to prevent these liquids from seeping onto the customer’s hands when eating. This prevents the food itself from becoming dry in addition to making the process cleaner and more enjoyable for the consumer. Greaseproof paper is also ideal to use as panini wrap paper or for lining postal boxes or pizza boxes when delivering takeaway orders or shipping goods across the country. Whether you sell brownies and baked goods or freshly baked sausage rolls and pastries, the custom baking paper quality will prevent moisture from permeating through the surface. Moreover, the contents are reliably protected from external dust or dirt which may otherwise contaminate the food, thus promoting optimal freshness of the goods.

These products are made of paper, which makes them degradable in nature. Nevertheless, even though these products can degrade completely in nature, the process is very slow. That’s why we always encourage our customers to dispose of them properly!

As customers become increasingly aware of the environmental impact of their purchases, words such as ‘compostable’ and ‘biodegradable’ have become more commonplace. However, they are sometimes incorrectly perceived as interchangeable. In order to truly be a conscious shopper when it comes to sourcing packaging for your business, it is important to understand exactly what these terms mean and what standards a product must achieve in order to be labelled as such.
