Custom Newsprint Paper — Vintage Newspaper-Print Food Wrap & Basket Liners
Custom newsprint paper wraps burgers, sandwiches, and fries in the vintage newspaper look, without the safety problem of real newspaper. Diners, pubs, food trucks, and fish-and-chip shops use it to wrap food and line baskets, printed food-safe with your branding. Custom Printed Papers makes it on greaseproof food paper, prints the newsprint style with food-safe inks, and ships it free across the United States. It sits within our wider custom food paper range.
Custom newsprint paper is greaseproof food wrap and basket liner paper printed with a vintage newspaper design, using food-safe inks. It gives the classic fish-and-chips look while resisting grease and meeting FDA 21 CFR 176.170 for food contact.
It comes as deli wrap sheets, basket liners, and cone liners, in sepia vintage, kraft, and white. Printing uses food-safe soy and water-based inks, so the newspaper look is safe against food, which real newspaper is not.
Pick the format and style your service needs below, from a sandwich wrap to a fry cone, and add your own headlines or logo into the newsprint design. Upload your artwork and receive a free digital proof within one business day.
What Is Newsprint Paper for Food?
Newsprint paper for food is greaseproof wrap printed to look like a vintage newspaper, used to wrap and serve casual food. The newspaper look is a print design, not real newsprint stock. It prints on grease-resistant food paper with food-safe inks, so it carries the nostalgic fish-and-chips style while staying safe against food. Diners, pubs, and food trucks use it for burgers, fries, sandwiches, and baskets.
Is It Safe to Wrap Food in Newspaper?
No. Real newspaper is not safe for wrapping food, because its inks are not approved for food contact and can transfer onto food. Food-grade newsprint paper gives the same look using food-safe inks on greaseproof paper.
Actual newspaper carries printing inks made for reading material, not for touching food, and they can migrate into what they wrap. Food-grade newsprint paper solves this. It reproduces the vintage newspaper design with inks that meet FDA standards for food contact, on grease-resistant paper. The look is identical, but it is made to be safe against burgers, fries, and sandwiches.
Why Do Restaurants Use Newsprint Food Wrap?
Restaurants use newsprint food wrap because the vintage newspaper look signals casual, authentic, comfort food, and it photographs well for social media. The style carries nostalgia, the fish-and-chips and old-diner association that makes food feel honest and hand-served. It also reads well in photos, so a customer shares the meal. The grease-resistant paper does the practical work, keeping the basket clean and the food contained.

Can You Print Your Own Branding on Newsprint Paper?
Yes. You can print your own logo, headlines, and menu into the newsprint layout, so the wrap reads as your bakery or diner's own front page. The newspaper style is a flexible canvas.

Newsprint Paper vs Deli Paper vs Sandwich Paper
They share the same grease-resistant base but differ in look. Newsprint paper owns the vintage newspaper print. Deli paper covers the broader range of solid colors, checks, and custom logo wraps for the deli counter. Sandwich paper wraps and folds around sandwiches and subs. Choose newsprint paper when you specifically want the newspaper look.
