Applications
Printed food wrapping paper
We supply the plain base paper. Your printer adds the brand. MG gives the best printing face. OGR and butter paper go against oily and baked food, so proof print on them first.
01 / Two routes
Two routes to a printed food wrap
Print on a food paper. The wrap goes against the food and carries the brand in one sheet. The base is OGR or butter paper, and the print has to suit food contact.
Print on MG and keep a food paper inside. The printed MG wrap carries the brand on the outside. A plain OGR or butter paper sheet sits against the food.

03 / OGR
Printing on OGR
We supply plain OGR and have not verified print performance on our OGR.
Send your printer samples and run a proof with your artwork and ink system before you order a full run.
04 / Butter paper
Custom printed butter paper
We supply plain butter paper, not printed. A printer prints our sheets or rolls to your design.
For oven use, the silicone-coated type is rated to 230 °C. Ask your printer whether the ink system suits the oven before you print a baking liner.
05 / MG
Branded wrap on MG
For colour, MG is the strongest base in our range. The glazed white face holds finer detail, and ink lands closer to the proof than on brown.
For MG, ask us before food use. Keep a plain food sheet between MG and the food until you confirm food use.
