Why Choose Our Tissue Paper
Custom Tissue Paper | Branded Wrapping Tissue for Retail, Gifting & Unboxing
Custom printed tissue paper is one of the highest-impact-per-dollar investments in the packaging ecosystem — a single sheet of tissue paper with a brand's pattern or logo transforms the opening of a retail package from a transactional moment into a brand experience that customers associate with quality, care, and intentionality. Our custom printed tissue paper is produced on lightweight tissue stock in single-color and multi-color printing, available in sheets and continuous rolls for manual and automated tissue application.
Tissue Paper Applications
- Retail Wrapping Tissue: Apparel and accessories wrapped in branded tissue inside shopping bags and boxes
- Gift Box Lining Tissue: Tissue paper lining the interior of gift boxes before product placement
- E-commerce Unboxing Tissue: Branded tissue wrapping products inside mailer boxes for the unboxing experience
- Jewelry and Fragile Item Tissue: Acid-free tissue for wrapping jewelry, art, and archival-quality products
- Food-Safe Tissue: FDA-compliant unbleached tissue for direct food wrapping in bakery and deli applications
Printing on Tissue
Tissue paper is printed using flexographic printing — relief printing with flexible plates that transfers ink to the delicate tissue without tearing or distorting the thin substrate. Single-color printing (one logo color on white or colored base tissue) is the most common option. Two-color printing allows brand patterns with two ink colors. Full CMYK tissue printing is available for photographic or complex pattern designs at higher minimum quantities.
The Tissue Paper Moment in Retail Packaging
The moment a customer parts tissue paper to reveal a product is one of the most psychologically impactful moments in the retail experience — a physical unveiling that creates genuine anticipation and reward. Branded tissue paper — printed with the brand's logo, pattern, or typography — transforms this universal unwrapping gesture into a brand-specific ritual. The tissue's color and pattern signal the brand before the product is visible, building anticipation through sensory layers that a product simply placed in a plain box cannot create.
Acid-Free Tissue for Archival Applications
Standard tissue paper contains trace acidic compounds from the manufacturing process that, over extended contact periods, can damage pH-sensitive items including photographs, artwork, vintage textiles, and sterling silver jewelry. Acid-free tissue — pH-neutral tissue manufactured without acidic compounds — is the archival standard for wrapping items intended for long-term preservation. Jewelers, art retailers, vintage clothing specialists, and archival product brands use acid-free tissue to demonstrate care for the products they sell and the customer's investment.

Tissue Paper in Iowa — FAQs
What is the minimum order for custom-printed tissue paper?
Our minimum order for custom-printed tissue paper is 100 sheets for single-color printing. Two-color printing minimum is 250 sheets. Full CMYK printing minimum is 500 sheets. Roll format for automated application minimum is 500 meters.
How many colors can be printed on tissue paper?
Standard tissue printing uses flexographic printing that practically accommodates 1–2 colors cost-effectively. Single-color printing (one logo or pattern color on white or colored base tissue) is the most common. Two-color printing adds a second brand color. Full CMYK tissue printing is available for complex patterns but requires higher minimum quantities and longer lead times.
Is tissue paper food-safe?
Standard printed tissue paper uses printing inks that are not certified for direct food contact. For food-safe applications (wrapping bread, pastries, or deli items directly), we supply FDA-compliant unbleached, unprinted tissue manufactured without food-contact-prohibited substances.
What is acid-free tissue paper?
Acid-free tissue paper is manufactured from fibers processed to remove or neutralize acidic compounds, resulting in a pH-neutral (7.0 or above) tissue that does not cause acid degradation in items it contacts over extended periods. It is the archival standard for wrapping vintage clothing, artwork, photographs, sterling silver jewelry, and any item sensitive to acid contact.
