Most of the lining is covered when a basket is full. Only the edges are visible; the center is covered by the fries, and the burger is on top. If your logo is in the center of the sheet, the food comes out and buries it. All good custom printed deli paper is based on what the customer will see.

This guide explains the planning of print for baskets and wraps.

For baskets and wraps, how do you design custom printed Deli Paper?

Place the brand in an area that will not be covered by food. Use edges, corners, and a repeating pattern for baskets. With wraps, position the logo towards the center of the sheet so it will not be lost when folded. Run a test on a real sample before approval.

• Basket liners: pattern/edge print, as the center is covered
• Sandwich wraps: Place logo in the middle of the sheet
• Both, good contrast between paper and ink

Why Deli Paper is Better than Regular Sheets of Paper?

Ordinary food appears planned when logo printed deli sheets are used. A fish and chip basket on a printed liner is the same as a menu item, and a fish and chip basket on plain paper is the same as leftovers.

It also does some subtle marketing as well. All tables, trays, and photos feature your name, with little additional effort from staff.

What are the advantages of the printed Logo Deli Sheets?

The basket will remain neat because of the grease resistance. The branded sandwich paper used in a deli is usually 30 to 40 lb paper that has a grease-resistant surface, which will not absorb grease into the paper and onto the tray.

A diagonal liner will give a sharper look. The technique of placing a square sheet corner to corner in a round or rectangular basket allows printed edges to be visible all around.

More jobs are covered on one sheet. For many baskets and sandwiches, a 12 x 12 inch sheet is all that’s needed, and a 15 x 15 inch sheet is used for larger burgers and platters.

Staff become more efficient working with a consistent sheet. A new employee is placed and gets one-fold and one-liner training, and the counter is the same throughout all changes.

Costs stay manageable. One color is typically the most economical, and the more sheets printed, the less it will cost.

Do not overcrowd the painting. A large mark printed on an open space will read well and will not show up any scuffs from being handled, but on dense dark fields, it might look worn after a rush.

Which businesses are using printed Deli Paper?

Wherever food is served in a basket or wrap.

• Burger and fast food restaurants
• Fish & Chips shops
• Sandwich shops and delis that serve sandwiches.
• BBQ restaurants and food trucks
• Bakery cafes and event caterers.

What kind of customizations can be done?

Sizes and stock weights, print colour, and packaging are available. Sizes offered are 12 x 12, 15 x 15 & 15 x 18, and custom cuts are available for odd baskets.

• Standard or custom cut sizes available.
• Print: 1 colour to full colour, using food-safe inks
• Packing: flat packages or inter-leaved dispenser boxes
• Finish: grease resistant or none.

The Deli Paper produces their own deli paper, provides its own printing, and has relatively low minimum orders. One design for one sheet size can be used in a restaurant, and a second design for a new menu line can be added.

Test layout using real foods. Line a basket, place a complete order, and view it as a customer would. If the logo is not on top of the document, position it before printing.

Please size-check before ordering. If the liner is too small, there will be uncovered edges, and if it’s too large, there will be space around the table.
