Pure greaseproof paper is naturally grease-resistant, making it ideal for burgers, fried foods and hot/oily foods. It contains no coatings, wax, or silicones, meaning it is fully recyclable, compostable, and biodegradable.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs)

What are greaseproof paper sheets used for?

Greaseproof paper sheets are food-safe liners used for wrapping and presenting hot, oily, or lightly greasy foods. They are popular in bakeries, cafes, chip shops, burger outlets, and delis to prevent oil seepage, keep products fresh, and maintain presentation quality.

What's the difference between pure and bleached greaseproof paper sheets?

  • Pure greaseproof paper sheets: cream/white tone, naturally grease-resistant with no coatings. Ideal for wrapping burgers, fried foods, and hot oily products.
  • Bleached greaseproof paper sheets: bright white finish, lighter grease resistance, perfect for sandwiches, baked foods, confectionary, and interleaving.

Can you put greaseproof paper in the oven?

Yes, but with limits. Our greaseproof paper sheets are unsiliconised, meaning they’re not non-stick baking parchment. They can be used for light oven use such as lining trays, but they are not designed for high-temperature baking where silicone release paper would be required.

Is greaseproof paper recyclable?

Yes, our greaseproof paper is recyclable, compostable, and biodegradable, as it contains no wax, silicone, or plastic coatings. Simply dispose of it through paper recycling or composting channels.

Is greaseproof paper food safe?

Yes, both pure and bleached greaseproof paper are manufactured to food-grade standards, making them safe for direct food contact.

What foods are best wrapped in greaseproof paper?

  • Pure greaseproof paper sheets: fried foods, burgers, oily items, and hot food service.
  • Bleached greaseproof paper sheets: sandwiches, pastries, confectionary, and interleaving for layered products.

Is greaseproof paper the same as food wrap?

Not exactly. Food wrapping paper (like our clear butchers film) is designed to tightly seal and protect food products, especially fresh meat, poultry, and chilled produce. It works more like a plastic wrap for food, offering stretch, cling, and tear resistance to keep items fresh.

Greaseproof paper on the other hand, is a type of food wrap designed to resist oils and fats. It’s commonly used for baked goods, pastries, and takeaway items, rather than raw meat or deli produce.

Can I buy greaseproof paper sheets in bulk?

Yes, bulk discounts and next-day UK delivery is available across the UK.
