In the culinary and meat processing industry, your wrapping material is a critical extension of your product’s quality. At Pack Printers, we manufacture Custom Butcher Paper that goes beyond basic utility. Our engineered papers provide the exact balance of moisture holdout and breathability required to keep fresh cuts red, smoked meats juicy, and your brand front-and-center.
Whether you run an artisanal butcher shop, a high-volume BBQ joint, or a gourmet deli, our FDA-compliant printed butcher paper transforms every wrapped order into a premium billboard for your business.
True butcher paper is vastly different from standard kraft paper. It is engineered with a specialized internal “sizing” treatment that gives it high blood, water, and tear resistance—even when wet.
Moisture Management: Unlike plastic films that trap moisture and accelerate spoilage (turning meat brown), our breathable butcher paper allows excess moisture to escape while protecting the meat from airborne contaminants.
The “Bark” Protector: For BBQ pitmasters, our uncoated peach butcher paper is the industry standard for the “Texas Crutch.” It breathes enough to maintain the bark on briskets while retaining the meat’s internal juices.
Selecting the right substrate depends entirely on how your product will be displayed, cooked, or stored.
| Material Grade | Weight (Basis) | Core Property | Best Used For |
| Pink / Peach Butcher | 40# (Standard) | Uncoated, Highly Breathable | BBQ Smoking, Brisket, Rustic Branding |
| White Butcher Paper | 40# (Standard) | Clean, High Contrast | Fresh Retail Cuts, Poultry, Fish |
| Poly-Coated Freezer Paper | 40# Paper + 5# Poly | Airtight Moisture Barrier | Long-Term Freezing (Prevents Freezer Burn) |
| Waxed Deli Paper | 30# to 40# | Grease Resistant | Sandwiches, Charcuterie, Short-term wrap |
Printing on food-contact surfaces requires rigorous safety standards and specialized technology. At Pack Printers, your safety and brand integrity are our top priorities.
FDA-Approved, Water-Based Inks: We use exclusively food-safe, non-toxic inks that will never bleed, off-gas, or transfer onto your food products, even when exposed to the high heat of a smoker or the moisture of fresh cuts.
Flexographic Roll Printing: Ideal for continuous logo patterns. This high-speed printing method ensures your branding is consistent across thousands of feet of paper.
Versatile Branding: While butcher paper is perfect for meats and BBQ, if you are looking for versatile packaging for non-meat items or delicate bakery goods, explore our broader range of custom printed paper solutions tailored to any culinary need.
We offer our custom butcher paper in two primary formats to suit your operational workflow: Continuous Rolls and Pre-Cut Sheets.
| Format | Common Dimensions | Best For | Operational Advantage |
| Counter Rolls | 15″, 18″, 24″, 36″ Widths | Butcher Shops, BBQ Restaurants | Custom-length tearing for varying meat sizes. |
| Pre-Cut Sheets | 12″ x 12″ | Deli Sandwiches, Burgers | High-speed assembly lines, portion control. |
| Pre-Cut Sheets | 15″ x 20″ | Quarter chickens, small cuts | Standardized retail wrapping. |
| Pre-Cut Sheets | 18″ x 24″ | Half ribs, briskets, large steaks | Maximum coverage, fast wrapping without a dispenser. |
Note: All rolls come on a standard 3-inch core to fit universal counter dispensers and paper cutters.
The modern food industry is rapidly shifting away from single-use plastics. Our uncoated Pink and White Butcher Papers are:
100% Biodegradable & Compostable: Breaks down naturally without leaving toxic residues.
Unbleached Options: Our Peach/Pink paper is manufactured without harmful bleaching agents.
Sustainably Sourced: Made from virgin wood pulp sourced from responsibly managed forests to ensure high tear-strength and environmental compliance.
Don’t wrap your premium cuts in blank, forgettable paper. Partner with Pack Printers to turn every order into a powerful marketing tool that protects your product and builds customer loyalty.
