PAPER CONVERTING BLOG

Restaurants, delis, butcher shops and grocery stores have historically used paper to wrap sandwiches, package cuts of meat, line baskets and trays, and cover tabletops. Because paper plays such an important role in the food service industry, it has evolved with style over time. Today, paper is custom printed to fit specific orders and helps add some color to food presentations. At Oren International, we offer only 100% FDA approved butcher and Kraft paper to the food service industry. Here are a few of the reasons we love custom food service paper. 

Kraft paper is an important ingredient being used by many restaurants today. Its diversity, efficiency, custom ability and affordability make it a perfect one-time sanitary use in eating establishments.

A glass of Merlot and a Porterhouse Steak make the perfect pair. But if red wine and spills are creating a linen nightmare for your restaurant, consider topping your cloths with tabletop paper. You’ll save lots of money on cleaning costs, plus customized tabletop covers can improve your dining room’s look and feel for diners.

Steak papers are very durable and inhibit the spoilage of meat, poultry and fish. Colorful steak paper can also enhance the appearance of meat, poultry and seafood in grocery, butcher or deli display cases. The right color of food service paper can make a great impact on the presentation of fresh fish or Prime Angus steak in your butcher case. Not only do the various colors look nice, they actually were created for specific uses.

Tray liners and sandwich wrap help restaurants be efficient in cleanliness and packaging, but changing the types and sizes of food service paper your establishment buys can also bring big savings.

Printing your restaurant's logo on sandwich wrap is a great marketing strategy. People walk out of your sandwich shop and enjoy their lunch in a public area, or inside their office. Everywhere they go, hungry people will see your logo on that delicious sandwich. But food service packaging has to do more than advertise. It also has to keep your food fresh, sanitary, and ready-to-eat.

Just because you order a roll of white butcher paper, that doesn’t mean that’s what you’re getting.  Some companies claim to sell white butcher paper, but are actually selling white kraft paper. While white kraft paper is great for many things, it is not the best option for direct food contact.
