Description
Custom Freezer Paper: Because Freezer Burn Is Not a Quality Standard and Neither Is Plain White Paper.
Every butcher shop, meat processor, fishmonger, and food distributor wrapping product for cold storage has the same two non-negotiable requirements: the wrap must protect the food from freezer burn for months, and it must not let moisture in or out at the wrong rate. Print On Papers manufactures FDA-compliant, BPA-free Custom Freezer Paper that meets both requirements with your logo, your brand colors, and your identity printed on every sheet.
How Custom Freezer Paper Actually Works and Why the Coating Matters More Than the Paper Weight
Freezer paper is an engineered dual-sided product. Understanding how the two sides function is the most important thing any buyer can know before placing an order.
The PE-coated side faces the food. Polyethylene creates a moisture-proof, airtight barrier directly against the meat, poultry, or seafood locking in natural juices, blocking cold air, and preventing freezer burn across storage periods of up to 12 months. This coating is BPA-free and FDA-compliant under 21 CFR standards for direct food contact.
The uncoated kraft side faces outward. This is the printable surface where your logo, brand design, product information, and handling instructions appear. Soy-based or water-based food-safe inks carry your brand cleanly on the outer kraft layer without any contact with the food on the other side.
At Print On Papers, both base variants are FSC-certified from responsibly sourced timber. The PE coating is food-grade, BPA-free, and applied under controlled manufacturing standards that verify barrier consistency, adhesion strength, and cold-temperature flexibility before any batch ships.
One critical safety note: freezer paper is not microwave safe and not oven safe. The PE coating melts at high temperatures. For microwave or oven applications, parchment paper is the correct product.
Why Butcher Shops and Food Distributors Choose Print On Papers
- PE Barrier That Prevents Freezer Burn for Up to 12 Months. The polyethylene layer creates a continuous moisture and air barrier that keeps the wrapped product fresh, retaining flavour and texture through extended frozen storage. Commercial-grade PE coating at 8 GSM holds its seal and flexibility even at temperatures down to -40°C.
- Brand Printing That Holds in Cold Storage Conditions. Logos, patterns, and product information are printed via Flexographic or Digital methods on the uncoated kraft outer side. CMYK full-color or Pantone-matched with ink formulations that resist moisture absorption and remain legible through the full storage and thaw cycle.
- BPA-Free Materials Your Customers Can Trust. Our PE coating is manufactured BPA-free and FDA-compliant under 21 CFR. For butcher shops, meat processors, and grocery brands whose customers read labels carefully, this is a commercial credential worth communicating.
- Tear-Resistant at Freezing Temperatures: Wax paper becomes brittle and cracks in the cold. Our kraft-based freezer paper uses long cellulose fibres that maintain tensile strength and tear resistance at sub-zero temperatures, staying flexible and intact through wrapping, handling, transport, and retrieval from the freezer.
