Custom Wax Paper Sheets UK | Printed for Food Brands

Published on: 2026-10-23

A customer opens a bag from your shop and finds a sandwich, a flapjack, or a slice of cake wrapped in paper. For a second, that paper is all they’re looking at. If it’s plain, it goes in the bin. If it carries your logo, they remember who made their lunch.

At Deli Paper, we make custom wax paper sheets and other wrapping for cafés, bakeries, delis, and market stalls across the UK. Plenty of owners tell us they’d love branded paper but assume it means huge orders and high costs. It doesn’t. Here’s what to know before you buy. 

Why Does Plain Paper Hold Your Brand Back?

Plain paper protects food, and that’s about all it does.

  • It says nothing about who made the food.
  • It looks the same as every other shop’s paper.
  • It gives customers nothing to photograph or share.
  • It disappears as soon as the food is eaten.

What Makes Our Wax Paper Different?

Key specifications of premium wax paper are:

  • Weights from 35gsm to 50gsm and above
  • Wax coating on both sides
  • Standard sizes or cut to your own dimensions
  • Safe for direct food contact
  • Best for cold and room temperature food

One thing worth saying plainly. Wax paper is made for wrapping and serving, not for oven use. 

What Can You Print on It?

Skip the complicated artwork. Simple designs get photographed more and stay memorable longer.

  • Your logo, centred or repeated in a pattern
  • Brand colours as stripes, checks, or a border
  • A short tagline
  • Small icons that suit your menu
  • A QR code for reviews or online orders
  • Seasonal designs for Christmas, Easter, and local events

Keep it bold. Thin lines and tiny text can blur once moisture gets involved.

Does Your Packaging Meet UK Food and Environmental Rules? 

At Deli Paper, we treat compliance as a starting point, not a bonus. Every sheet is made with UK food service rules in mind.

  • PFAS-free, with no unwanted chemicals near food
  • FSC-certified paper from responsibly managed forests
  • Made in line with current EPR requirements
  • Paperwork available on request

How Custom Wax Paper Can Boost Your Business

At Deli Paper, our custom wax paper service lets you choose the size, the print, and the finish to suit your menu. Here’s how it helps your business grow:

  • Neat wraps for sandwich shops. Our custom wax paper for sandwiches is cut to fold cleanly around rolls, baguettes, and toasties, so every order looks tidy.
  • Your brand in every hand. Each wrapped item carries your logo, so customers see your name the moment they pick up their order.
  • Free advertising. Wraps get photographed, shared, and carried around town, spreading your name without any ad spend.
  • A more premium feel. Printed paper makes simple food look more polished and worth paying for.
  • Easy restocking. Need paper fast? We also stock ready-made sandwich paper in standard sizes, so busy kitchens can reorder without fuss.
  • Sizes that fit your menu. Choose custom sizes for your products, or standard sizes for quick top-ups.
  • A consistent look. Matching paper across every order and location builds recognition and trust.
  • Repeat customers. People remember a shop with good packaging, and they come back to it.

Is Wholesale Worth It?

Ordering wholesale wax paper sheets gives you:

  • A lower cost per sheet
  • Fewer last-minute supply runs
  • Steady quality from batch to batch
  • Easier budgeting through the year

At wholesale volume, printed sheets often cost only a little more than plain ones. If branded wrapping brings back a few extra regulars each week, it pays for itself.

What Should You Check Before You Order?

Quality varies from one supplier to the next, and a good one doesn’t mind being quizzed. At Deli Paper, here’s how we answer the questions that matter most about our wax paper sheets:

  • Is it food-safe, and can I see the paperwork? 

Yes. Our sheets are made for direct contact with food, and we send the documents whenever you ask.

  • Is it PFAS-free and compliant with UK food-contact rules? 

Yes. Our paper contains no PFAS, and compliance documentation is available on request.

  • Are the inks safe near food? 

Yes. We print with food-safe inks, so your logo can sit right against a sandwich or a slice of cake.

  • Can I try a sample first?

 Of course. Ask, and we’ll post one so you can check the print and feel the paper yourself.

  • Are your minimum orders really low?

 Yes, so independent cafés and bakeries can start with a quantity that suits their budget.

If a supplier can’t give you plain answers to questions like these, keep looking. To see how we measure up, email sales@delipaper.co.uk.
