About Our Retail Packaging Food Sleeves

Our custom printed packaging sleeves come in a range of printed board weights and finishes including gloss, matt and uncoated – many of these are freezer-safe for frozen food applications to suit your product. We also have a range of speciality papers and boards including kraft, metallic, GF Smith embossings and many more to choose from.

The majority of our printed sleeves are not only recyclable and bio-degradable but compostable too, making them an excellent choice for sustainable food packaging. We are one of a handful Carbon Balanced Printers certified with CarbonCo and the World Land Trust – we are passionate about decreasing our environmental impact.

All our bespoke food sleeves are suitable for die-cutting to cater for all types of box shape, box size and any food tray including BioPak, Novato and Faerch trays.

In addition, our packaging sleeves come flat packed with pre-scored creases for perfectly neat folding. We also machine-glue the sleeves to ensure accuracy, speed and cost-efficiency.
