Which Industries Use Custom Printed Packaging Paper?
These papers aren’t a niche packaging component. They work as protection, presentation, and a branding element for the product all at once! This is why it is used across several industries:
E-Commerce & Retail Packaging
Whether it’s a skincare kit, handmade candles, or fashion accessories, they all go through customers’ hands. If you were to wrap the products in tissue, kraft, or printed liners, it would give your brand a signature unboxing experience.
Food Service: Restaurants, Delis & Bakeries
Custom paper, including parchment, grease-resistant, and other food-grade paper, helps control the moisture and oil of most food products. These brands can also create a polished and premium look for better recognition.
Gift Shops & Specialty Goods Store
If you want to leave a lasting impression on your customers, then custom wrapping paper can help you achieve that personalized look. It is recommended to include tissue-style inserts to enhance the overall unboxing experience.
Subscription Box Brands
Most of these companies use mailer boxes or bags, which they can elevate with branded tissue paper, custom filler paper like crinkle, and product cards. The beautiful branded logo and prints used on these papers can help reinforce your image in the market.
Pharmaceutical & Healthcare Packaging
These companies need special packaging paper, inserts, and secure custom paper that keeps everything in place without any tampering. You can even print important product data, such as barcodes, expiration dates, etc., on the papers, which enhances customer trust.
Electronics & Anti-Static Wrapping
The best part of these papers is that they are anti-static and keep the parts safe during travel. It is easy to layer around the item and keep it safe within the packaging with extra interior lining.
Benefits of Custom Paper Packaging for Your Brand
The personal printed paper has its perks, as it’s a combination of functionality, food safety, branding, and more. Its shelf life is 20% for bakery items, and it maintains freshness and prevents spoilage of food.
A More Personal Customer Experience
You can add personal notes with your custom papers, which makes them more interactive, and 75% of customers agree. Another thing that gives the best impression is premium finishes, vibrant colors, and textures.
FDA & FSC Compliance You Can Trust
These papers are made from non-toxic material that follows both the FDA and FSC regulations/standards. They are an eco-friendly option with PEFC certification and can be easily recycled with little to no environmental impact. You can find tamper-evident sealed papers as well, such as glassine, that keep the product secure during transit.
Paper Thickness (GSM) for Every Use Case
Thin paper with a GSM of 70 to 90 is best for envelopes or folding paper. There are also ultra-thick boards (400+ GSM) that can make a durable and luxurious unboxing experience, which are delicate to wrap but sturdy enough for grease resistance.
Stronger Brand Recognition Through Print
A custom-printed paper with a logo, pattern, design, and unique typography is the best branding tool for any brand. They can use advanced printing techniques, add functional coatings, and use eco-conscious materials to reach professional credibility.
Creating a Memorable Unboxing Moment
Subscription boxes, e-commerce orders, and gift purchases can give their customers a special experience with personalized papers. If you add custom stickers, labels, and decorative tape to the mix, it gives your product more social media exposure.
Types of Custom Paper: Which One Fits Your Product?
There is a wide range of papers that come in different thicknesses, coatings, functionality, and abilities. Companies should skim through them to find the ones that will help them with their brand:
Parchment Paper (Baking & Roasting)
It is a heat-seal and non-stick paper that is coated with a food-safe silicone. This paper is ideal for baking and roasting, as it can withstand a temperature of up to 425°F.
The best thickness you should use is from 30 to 50 GSM, which is best for commercial use.
Wax Paper (Moisture-Resistant Wrapping)
Brands like delis, cafes, bakeries, and takeout brands use this paper for its moisture resistance and clear separation abilities. Though it is not suitable for direct oven heat, they come in handy when you want to store food for a long period of time or during shipping. Their paper weight varies, with a thickness of 30-40 GSM, due to coatings such as
-
Dry Wax Paper
-
Wet Wax Paper
Tissue Paper (Gifting & Retail Inserts)
Most brands use this paper for their subscription boxes or gifting purposes (the thickness range is only 17-30 GSM). They are processed to be thin, soft, and absorbent, which offers color accuracy and tear resistance for branding.
You can use them for wrapping and cushioning retail items; they work best with apparel boxes, mailers, and cosmetic packaging.
Butcher Paper (Food-Grade & Heat-Safe)
An FDA-approved paper like this is the most-used wrapping and packaging paper for delis, artisans, and bakeries. It is made from sizing agents that are moisture-resistant and can hold their structure in high heat (420–450°F).
This makes it suitable for roasting meat, chicken, and other products.
Butter Paper (Grease-Free Barrier Sheets)
This is the lightest paper with 30-35 GSM thickness, built for room-temperature and refrigerated use. Brands can use this grease-free paper to block butter and as a general food-safe barrier sheet.
They work best as lining trays and in baskets that are stacked between bakery items and goods.
Glassine Paper (Bakery & Confectionery Wrap)
It is a semi-translucent paper that is mainly used for bakery packaging, candy shops, and as a delicate product wrapping. This paper is compatible with flexographic or UV printing that you can use to print your logo or design. Why not enhance it further? You can use light wax, silicone, or a PR layer for better protection.

What Materials & Substrates Are Used to Make Premium Custom Paper?
It comes in many kinds, but the manufacturing process tells us how functional and useful it will be. You should choose each material according to its durability, look, and performance:
Kraft Paper
It is made from strong virgin wood fibers that give the paper reliable tear resistance properties. You can use it for food wrapping, packaging inserts, and as an organic branding solution.
Recycled Paper
They are made from previous paper fibers that are cleaned, de-inked, and pulped to create the custom sustainable packaging.
Coated Paper
This smooth-surfaced paper is treated with clay or synthetic coatings for vibrant color and visual appeal, which allows you to get crisp graphical details.
Water- & Grease-Resistant Paper
This paper is treated with safe coatings and sizing agents that prevent moisture and oil from coming through. These papers are ideal for food packaging, and they reduce approx. 12% less ink bleeding and usage.
Printing Techniques for Personalized Printed Papers
With the right printing, brands can showcase their products in a vibrant, colorful, and highly detailed graphical piece. We let you choose from 1 color variation to 4 colors to get the desired look you want. Pick one:

-
Gravure Printing: Etches the design into a cylinder for deep ink transfer, producing rich, consistent color across very high-volume orders.

Rotogravure Printing: A rotary version of gravure printing built for continuous, high-speed production, ideal for large rolls of branded packaging paper.
