Increasing Sales of Waxed Papers to Fuel Glassine Papers Market Growth
Glassine paper can be used as waxed paper, once coated with wax on its surface. Waxed papers provide an economical choice for primary food packaging not only because of their versatility but also because of their safety as tasteless, odorless, non-toxic, and relatively inert materials.
Applications of waxed glassine paper in conventional packaging applications include: delicatessen pickup sheets; box liners; cover, scale, and utility sheets; patty papers; sandwich wraps; and bags, laminations to other papers and paperboard for food trays, locker papers, carryout cartons, food pails, baking cups, folding cartons, cereal liners, and folding carton overwrap. The varied applications of waxed papers are expected to boost sales of glassine paper in forthcoming years.
