Custom Butcher Paper

The packaging of freshly cut pieces of meat is quite a tricky task, and the main reason for this is that you have to prevent the creation of mess and also ensure safety. In this case, custom butcher paper comes as a lifesaver as it is specially manufactured with the aesthetic appearance of the product kept in mind while ensuring protection.

Apart from packing freshly cut meat, this colored butcher paper can be used during barbecue making due to its excellent breathability. In addition, you can also use these butcher paper for smoking meat as well. However, these are not the only usages of custom butcher wrapping paper, and you can get a promotional tool in the form of paper by getting them printed with the promotional elements of your brand.

What Is Custom Kraft Butcher Paper Made Of?

Like all the other custom food wrapping papers, heavy duty butcher paper is also manufactured using kraft paper. This material is derived from soft and hardwood fibers that are broken down by several mechanical and chemical processes into cellulose.

These processes help in the dissolution of fibers that, when set, become highly interwoven together. The alkalinization process is used to produce custom butcher paper rolls with highly interwoven fibers. In the mechanical process, the pulp is dried to remove excessive water, and then it is passed through a process called calendaring, which gives an excellent texture to the paper sheets.

For brands that do not want brown butcher paper, we use an additional process called bleaching. This process is done to give the paper a white color so that you can get them printed with the color of your choice. The following steps are involved in the manufacturing of custom butcher paper sheets:

• Harvesting Raw Materials
• Pulping
• Bleaching and Refining (if needed)
• Sheet Formation
• Drying
• Coating (if needed)
• Cutting and Packaging

Additives & Sizing Agents

To increase the blood absorbency of bulk butcher paper we use different additives and sizing agents for them such as:

• Rosin-Alum Sizing
• Alkyl Ketene Dimer (AKD)
• Alkenyl Succinic Anhydride (ASA)
• Absorbency-Enhancing Additives
• Porous Filler Control
• Hydrophilic Additives

Types Of Custom Meat Paper Packaging And Their Applications

As the manufacturer of wholesale custom butcher paper wrapping, we give all our customers a lot of different sub-types of butcher sheets. Each type of paper has its own unique qualities that allow the customers to use this custom paper for multiple purposes. The classification of the paper is done based on the different treatments and colors of the paper. Apart from this, the application of different coatings also imparts different properties.

Pink Butcher Paper

Pink butcher paper is used in BBQ making. Pitmasters usually prefer this paper when smoking meat because it retains moisture and allows enough circulation of air so that a flavorful bark appears on the meat and remains soft. The peach butcher paper is due to the dyeing process that allows us to easily distinguish it from other paper. Its common applications are:

• BBQ Smoking
• Meat Wrapping
• Packaging

White Butcher Paper

This paper has almost the same function as that of brown butcher paper, but due to the application of the bleaching process, it has a clean and white appearance. It is commonly used in food and retail service due to its aesthetically appealing look that allows it to blend in clean environments.

White kraft butcher paper is the same as its brown counterpart in terms of functionality, but it has undergone a bleaching process that gives it a clean, bright white appearance. It is commonly used in food service and retail because of its aesthetically pleasing look and ability to blend into clean, sterile environments. The common applications of white butcher paper are as follows:

• Food Wrapping
• Art and Crafts
• Serving Tray Liners
• Packaging

Brown Butcher Paper

This unbleached butcher paper is an unbleached form of kraft paper with an additional application of sizing agents. Custom brown butcher paper has a rustic look that makes it an excellent choice for brands that are looking to incorporate sustainable and economical packaging. It is also known as waxless butcher paper or uncoated butcher paper.

• Meat Wrapping
• Retail Packaging
• Arts and Crafts
• Shipping

Black Butcher Paper

This type of butcher paper for wrapping meat gives your meat a nice and clean presentation. You can also wrap all forms of meat inside them like chicken, beef, mutton, fish, and more.

Wax-Coated Butcher Paper

A wax coating is applied to this type of butcher wrapping paper for meat. It can be used as an alternative to wax paper and has excellent moisture resistance ability. Nonetheless, you cannot use it to smoke meat as the wax coating may catch fire or melt. In food packaging, where liquid and oil retention are important, this type of waxed butcher paper is used. Its common applications are as follows:

• Food Packaging
• Freezer Storage
• Industrial Use

Printing Methods

The selection of coating to get custom printed butcher paper is based on the type of coating applied to the paper. Printings are crucial to give an aesthetic look to the paper; however, for the sake of an aesthetic look, we cannot compromise food safety. Considering this, we are using food-safe inks. That includes the following:

• Water-based inks
• Soy-based inks

For the application of these inks, we have the following printing options:

• Flexographic Printing
• Offset Printing
• Digital Printing

Temperature Resistance

Most of the customers have one common question, which is whether to use butcher sheets in the oven or not. The answer lies in the type of coating used on the custom butcher paper for sale. For instance, if you have selected unwaxed butcher paper, you can put the paper in the oven. Especially if you have opted for a silicon coating, which is commonly used on parchment paper, then you can freely use the paper in the oven. The same paper can be used in an air fryer, but make sure it does not obstruct the airflow.

Apart from this, if you have selected a wax or polyethylene-coated paper that you can use in the microwave but not in the oven, the wax coating can melt or catch fire. On the other hand, when it comes to stoves, no type of custom butcher wraps is suitable.
