Wrapping Paper
Wrapping paper is the layer between the box and the product, and the first thing a customer sees when the parcel is opened. It protects the garment in transit, slows the opening down, and carries a printed design for a fraction of the cost of printing the box.
Why Buyers Specify This
- Large printed area at a low cost per parcel
- Repeat patterns or single logo layouts
- Weights that wrap cleanly without tearing
- Inks selected so they do not transfer onto light fabric
Who It Is For
- Online fashion brands building an opening experience
- Boutiques wrapping purchases at the counter
- Gift retailers offering a wrapping service
- Brands sending press and seeding packages
Problems It Solves
- Products sliding loose in an oversized box
- Plain white tissue adding nothing to an expensive order
- Ink marking light-coloured garments
- Paper too thin to survive being wrapped
Where It Is Used
- Interior wrap for ecommerce parcels
- Counter gift wrapping
- Seasonal and festive wrapping runs
- Press and influencer packages

How It Compares With The Alternatives
Compared With Printed box interior
Printing inside the box looks sharper but costs far more and cannot be changed seasonally. Wrap can.
Compared With Plain tissue
Plain tissue protects just as well but adds nothing. Printed wrap is a small cost for a much better opening.
How To Order This Well
- Send the artwork tile if you want a repeating pattern
- Tell us the largest product wrapped so the sheet size fits
- Say that the paper touches the garment so the ink is specified for it
- Wrap a real garment in the sample and leave it a week
Wrapping Paper Questions
Will the ink transfer onto light garments?
Tell us the paper wraps directly against the garment and we will specify an ink and paper combination made for that, then sample it for you to test.
Can you print a repeating pattern?
Yes. Send the tile and we will set the repeat so it runs correctly.
What sheet size should we order?
Tell us the largest product you wrap and we will recommend a size that does not waste paper.
Can wrap and seal stickers be ordered together?
Yes, and it is the usual request, because the sticker is what holds the wrap closed.
