Hello everyone,

I’ve been exploring unique and sustainable packaging options recently and one that caught my attention is printing on greaseproof paper. It’s a versatile material, often used for food packaging, but I’ve noticed it’s gaining popularity in other creative industries too.

From a branding perspective, printing on greaseproof paper can add a unique, eco-friendly touch to product packaging, especially for businesses that want to create an organic, handmade feel. It's also a great alternative for those looking for sustainable options as greaseproof paper is biodegradable and recyclable.

I came across an insightful blog that discusses different ways to print on greaseproof paper and how it can elevate packaging design. The article also delves into the various types of printing methods that work best with this material. It’s definitely worth checking out for anyone in the packaging or food industries looking for fresh ideas.

Have any of you used printed greaseproof paper in your projects? I’d love to hear your thoughts and experiences!

That's a really interesting post! I've used greaseproof paper a few times, mainly for wrapping homemade baked goods to give as gifts, but I never really considered it for broader packaging or marketing. The idea of printing on it to create a more organic, handmade feel is definitely appealing, especially for smaller businesses or artisan products.

I'm curious about the printing methods mentioned in the blog post. I've always assumed it would be tricky to get a good print on greaseproof paper because of its coating. Do they recommend specific types of printers or inks?

Also, has anyone had experience with the durability of the print? I'd be worried about it smudging or rubbing off easily, especially if the packaging is handled a lot.

Thanks for sharing the link! I'll definitely check out the blog. It's great to see more sustainable packaging options being explored.

This is a really interesting idea! I've seen greaseproof paper used for food packaging, but I hadn't considered it for other applications.

I'm curious about the durability of the printing. How well does the ink hold up, especially if the packaging is subjected to moisture or handling?
