Product Overview

About Wax Paper

Custom Wax Paper (also known as custom printed deli paper, wax-coated sandwich wraps, or butcher wax paper) is the moisture-resistant, food-safe wrapping paper engineered for delis, burger joints, food trucks, bakeries, and butcher shops. Coated with food-grade paraffin or soy wax, this paper acts as a grease-proof barrier that prevents sauces, oils, and moisture from soaking through sandwich wraps and food basket liners.

Custom Wax Paper (deli wrap paper) is the industry standard food packaging for delis, burger restaurants, pizzerias, barbecue joints, and bakeries. Coated with a micro-thin layer of food-grade paraffin or plant-based soy wax, wax paper provides an impermeable barrier against grease, condiment oils, and food moisture. It keeps customer hands clean while preserving the temperature and texture of hot sandwiches and burgers.

Available in pre-cut 12" x 12" and 15" x 15" square sheets or continuous counter rolls, custom wax paper is pliable and easy for kitchen staff to wrap tightly around food. Custom printed with food-safe, non-toxic inks featuring repeating restaurant logos or vintage checkerboard patterns, wax paper turns every burger wrap into an active advertisement.

Common Questions

Frequently Asked Questions

Everything you need to know about Wax Paper. Can't find the answer you're looking for? Chat with our AI consultant.

Dry wax paper has wax driven deep into the paper sheet during manufacturing, leaving a smooth matte finish that is highly printable. Wet wax paper has a heavier, glossy wax coating on the surface, offering extreme moisture and grease resistance for raw meats, seafood, and juicy burgers.

Yes! Wax paper is microwave-safe. It can be wrapped around sandwiches or placed over bowls in the microwave to prevent food splattering without melting or releasing harmful fumes.

Yes! All our wax papers use 100% FDA-approved food-grade paraffin or soy wax coatings, ensuring complete safety when coming into direct contact with hot meats, cheeses, and baked goods.

No. Wax paper should never be placed in a conventional oven, toaster oven, or air fryer. High oven heat causes the wax coating to melt, smoke, and catch fire. Use heat-resistant parchment paper for oven baking.

Yes! We print using high-speed flexographic presses with food-safe non-toxic inks. You can print 1 to 4 solid Pantone colors across the entire sheet surface.

Our minimum order quantity for custom wax paper starts at 1,000 units, with baseline unit pricing starting around $0.08 to $0.20 depending on dimensions, material grade, and print coverage. Unit costs drop significantly at 1,000, 5,000, 10,000, and 25,000+ units—and every quote includes your requested quantity plus up to three larger volume tiers side by side.
