What Paper Is Used to Wrap Burgers?

Burger joints wrap burgers in grease-resistant greaseproof, dry-waxed, or foil-backed burger paper. It beats foil sheets and cling film for service because it folds and holds a stacked patty without tearing, contains hot grease so the wrap and customer's hands stay clean, and gives a flat printable surface for your logo. Foil-backed burger paper adds heat retention while still carrying full-color branding — a job plain foil and film cannot do.

How to Wrap a Burger in Paper (Step-by-Step)

The clamshell fold keeps a stacked burger tight, warm, and presentable with no tape:

1. Cut a sheet about two to three times the diameter of the burger. 2. Place the burger in the center, top bun up. 3. Bring the two opposite edges together above the burger and fold them down in small creases until snug against the bun. 4. Press the paper flat against each side, then tuck the two ends underneath the burger. 5. Cut through the paper to halve loaded burgers, with the printed side facing out.

For a double or loaded stack, use a larger sheet and a deeper first fold to seat the patties. For juicy, saucy builds, choose dry-waxed or foil-backed stock to contain leaks and hold heat in transit.

Burger Paper vs Deli, Greaseproof, Parchment & Foil

These wraps look alike but perform differently. Burger paper is the greaseproof, dry-waxed, or foil-backed wrap built for the high-grease burger job; the others suit different uses. Use the table to pick the right paper, and route specialized work to the matching product.

Types of Custom Burger Paper

Choose the coating and color that match your menu and brand. Each type prints with your logo and food-safe inks.

Greaseproof Burger Paper

Our greaseproof burger paper resists grease and moisture without a coating, which keeps it recyclable and microwave-safe — the standard for everyday burger and slider wrapping at Kit Rating 7 to 9.

Dry-Waxed Burger Paper

Our dry-waxed burger paper adds a non-stick wax barrier for stronger moisture resistance and a smoother fold, ideal for saucy, loaded, and grease-heavy builds.

Foil-Backed Burger Paper

Our foil-backed burger paper laminates an insulating foil layer to the wrap, holding heat for drive-thru, delivery, and food-truck service while keeping a printable outer surface.

White vs Kraft Burger Paper

Choose white burger paper for a clean surface that prints vivid full-color logos, or kraft burger paper for a rustic, artisan look with bold-logo contrast.

Flat Wrap vs Foil-Backed Insulated Wrap

The build changes what the wrap handles best. A flat greaseproof or dry-waxed wrap is the everyday choice for wrapping, folding, and quick counter service. A foil-backed insulated wrap traps heat for delivery, drive-thru, and travel, keeping the patty hot and the bun from steaming soft. Tell us your service window and we recommend the build.

Burger Wrap Sizes by Item

Match the sheet to the item, leaving room to fold and tuck. Stock sizes cover the common formats, and we cut any custom size to order.

Food Item Recommended Size Notes
Slider / mini burger10 × 10 inMinimal overwrap
Single burger12 × 12 inMost common; full wrap and fold
Double / smash stack14 × 14 inExtra height and grease
Loaded / large burger15 × 15 inTall builds with toppings
Catering / multiple18 × 24 to 36 × 36 inTrays and oversized wraps

Burger Paper Sheets vs Rolls

Pick the format that fits your service. Sheets give fast, consistent wrapping at a fixed size; rolls let staff cut each wrap to length from a dispenser. Many burger lines run both.

Burger Paper Sheets

Our burger paper sheets arrive pre-cut and interleaved for quick single-sheet pulls at the wrap station — the fastest option for a busy burger line.

Burger Paper Rolls

Our burger paper rolls feed standard dispensers for cut-to-length wrapping, suiting varied burger sizes and high volume.

What GSM Is Best for Burger Wrap?

Match the weight to the build. Lighter stock wraps sliders and presents clean; heavier stock holds juicy, double-stacked patties without bleed-through. The tiers below cover the burger-wrap range.

GSM Tier Best Use
30–35 gsmLightSliders, single patties, presentation
35–45 gsmStandardSingle and double burgers, everyday wrapping
45–50 gsmHeavyLoaded, saucy, grease-heavy builds and foil-backed

Who Uses Custom Burger Paper?

Burger restaurants and smash-burger spots wrap every order to a branded, repeatable standard. Food trucks wrap fast for service windows and travel. Diners and quick-service kitchens package grab-and-go burgers and line baskets. Catering companies and ghost kitchens wrap at volume for trays and delivery. One stock serves all four with your logo printed on the wrap.

Custom Printing and Branding on Burger Paper

We print burger paper with food-safe soy and vegetable inks, in CMYK or exact PMS Pantone, by flexographic, offset, or digital press. Repeat your logo across the sheet or roll so the printed side faces out on every finished burger. Branded burger paper turns each order into a marketing touchpoint that customers see, hold, and photograph — the cheapest brand impression in your kitchen.

Is Custom Burger Paper Food-Safe, PFAS-Free, and Microwave-Safe?

Yes. Our burger paper meets FDA 21 CFR 176.170 for direct food contact, prints with food-safe inks under FDA 21 CFR 175.300, and uses PFAS-free grease resistance from AKD sizing. Greaseproof burger paper is microwave-safe for quick reheating. Burger paper is not oven-safe — for baking, use custom parchment paper. Uncoated greaseproof stock is also recyclable, which supports an eco-friendly packaging story.

Frequently Asked Questions About Custom Burger Paper

What paper is used to wrap burgers?

Burger joints use grease-resistant greaseproof, dry-waxed, or foil-backed burger paper. It folds and holds a stacked patty without tearing, contains hot grease, and gives a printable surface for branding.

Is burger paper the same as sandwich paper?

They overlap. Sandwich paper is the broader grease-resistant wrap for subs and sandwiches, while burger paper is the same stock specified at a higher Kit Rating and weight to handle the heat and grease of a burger.

Is burger paper greaseproof, and what Kit Rating does it need?

Yes. Burger paper is greaseproof, dry-waxed, or foil-backed and holds a Kit Rating of 7 to 10. Standard burgers use Kit Rating 7 to 9; grease-heavy builds use 9 to 10.

How do you keep a burger warm in paper?

Wrap the burger in foil-backed insulated burger paper. The foil layer traps heat for drive-thru, delivery, and food-truck travel, while greaseproof and dry-wax stocks prioritize grease resistance over heat retention.

What size paper do I need for a burger, slider, or double?

A 12 × 12 in sheet suits a single burger, sliders use 10 × 10 in, and doubles or smash stacks use 14 × 14 in. Loaded burgers use 15 × 15 in.

What GSM is best for burger wrap?

35–45 gsm handles everyday single and double burgers, 30–35 gsm suits sliders and presentation, and 45–50 gsm holds loaded, saucy, grease-heavy builds.

Is burger paper microwave-safe or oven-safe?

Greaseproof burger paper is microwave-safe for quick reheating, but burger paper is not oven-safe. Foil-backed burger paper is neither microwave-safe nor oven-safe.

Is custom burger paper food-safe, FDA-approved, and PFAS-free?

Yes. It meets FDA 21 CFR 176.170 for direct food contact, prints with food-safe inks under FDA 21 CFR 175.300, and uses PFAS-free grease resistance from AKD sizing instead of fluorochemicals.

Is burger wrap paper recyclable or compostable?

Uncoated greaseproof burger paper is recyclable and often CMA compostable. Wax coatings can affect recyclability, and foil-backed paper is not recyclable, so choose greaseproof when sustainability is the priority.

Greaseproof vs foil-backed burger paper — which should I choose?

Choose greaseproof for everyday wrapping, recyclability, and microwave use. Choose foil-backed for heat retention on delivery, drive-thru, and food-truck orders that travel before eating.

Do you offer sheets, rolls, and custom sizes, and what is the MOQ and turnaround?

Yes. We supply sheets, dispenser rolls, and any custom size on a low minimum order quantity, with a free proof inside one business day and free US shipping in 6 to 8 business days.
