Greaseproof paper is a type of paper that is impermeable to oil or
grease and is often used for food packaging or cooking. It is
usually produced by refining base paper, resulting in a paper with
very low porosity. The density is then further increased by hard
calendering rolls (supercalendering), resulting in a paper called
cellophane. Cellophane is made by filling the pores with starch,
alginate or carboxymethyl cellulose (CMC) in a pulp press, or by
chemically treating the paper to make it resistant to oil. Basis
weights are generally 30 - 90g/m2.
Food Safety: Greaseproof paper is typically made from food-grade
materials and complies with food safety regulations. It does not
transfer any harmful substances to food items, ensuring that it
maintains food quality and safety.
Versatility: Greaseproof paper comes in a variety of thicknesses
and sizes for different applications. It can be used to wrap, line
or cross-place food, and can also be used for crafting and baking.
Eco-friendly options: Many greaseproof papers now come in
eco-friendly or compostable options. Made from sustainable
materials, these papers are biodegradable, reducing the impact on
the environment.
Printability: Greaseproof paper can be printed with food-safe inks,
allowing for branding or customization. This makes it a popular
choice for food packaging, where branding or product information is
often required.
