Working in the paper industry for so many years, we have recognized some common misnomers for different types of paper. Take butcher paper, for example. It's often mistaken for other similar papers such as kraft paper or freezer paper. The color of butcher paper is another topic that generates many questions. Whether you know butcher paper to be "pink" or "brown", the answer is: you're right.

For those in the grocery store, meat processing, and other commercial industries that use tons of freezer paper annually, deciding which freezer paper is right for you is important. Answering it comes down to how your business uses freezer paper, and what type of presentation you want to deliver to customers. Read on to help decide which option is right for you:

As we’re getting closer to the end of the year, you’re probably watching a pile of presents grow in the back of a closet or in your attic. If you’re like most of us, you may also be wondering about when you will have the time you need to sit down and wrap all those boxes.

With the holiday season upon us, you probably already have a list of gifts in the works for all the special people in your life. You’re not going to put just anything in the box either. It’s going to be a thoughtful gift, reflecting your appreciation for the business, friend or family member you’re giving it to.

It’s not uncommon for butcher paper to be found in many food service establishments across the globe. It’s simply becomes one of those standard supplies every restaurant or deli owner needs to have on hand for a variety of uses.

It never ceases to impress us just how versatile kraft paper can be. While it does a fantastic job filling its more “traditional” roles in industrial environments as interleaving and box filler, virgin, natural, and colored kraft paper have long been a classroom and craft closet staple for DIY art projects of all kinds.

If your business revolves around packaging and shipping products, you’re already well aware of the headaches that can come with this, at times, complex business process.

As a paper converting company that often writes about the benefits of using freezer paper, it might seem odd to ask the question in the title of this post. After all, is there even a question? Of course you should use freezer paper, right?

Chances are pretty good that your restaurant or deli has one - if not several - rolls of butcher paper in the kitchen or supply room. Depending on your menu selection, restaurant style, preparation and presentation, or delivery, you may use it a lot or only on occasion.
