Glassine Paper Packaging
Smooth, grease-resistant glassine paper for food, retail, and specialty packaging. Custom printed or plain, shipped free with low custom-production minimums.
What Is Glassine Paper?
Glassine is a smooth, glossy paper that is air, water. And grease resistant. It is made by super-calendering pulp to create a dense, semi-transparent sheet. The result is a material that protects contents from moisture and oils while remaining lightweight and flexible.
Teal Packaging supplies glassine paper in sheets, rolls, and pre-made bags. Whether you need liners for bakery boxes, interleaving sheets for stacked products, or standalone glassine bags, we have the right format for your operation.

Who Uses Glassine Paper?
Bakeries and Patisseries

Pair With Mailer Boxes for Complete Protection
Glassine paper works best when combined with rigid outer packaging. Line your custom mailer boxes with glassine sheets to protect products from grease transfer and moisture during shipping.
