Sustainability
If You Care’s Waxed Paper is crafted with both people and the planet in mind. Using FSC-certified unbleached paper ensures responsible forest management, while the coating of natural carnauba wax, derived from a renewable plant source, makes this product 100% compostable. Unlike traditional waxed papers that use paraffin (a petroleum product), this paper is free of chlorine and other harmful chemicals, helping to reduce water pollution and landfill waste.

About If You Care
The If You Care brand was created in 1990 and started with unbleached coffee filters. If You Care had the first and only unbleached coffee filters in North America at that time. Parchment Baking Paper and Baking Cups soon followed, both unbleached as well. There was no other brand in the North American market offering brown chlorine-free paper products.
If You Care has continued to come out with more products over the years.
If You Care products are produced with a view to reducing the amount of waste in our waste streams. If possible, nothing should remain after the product has been used and properly disposed of. The packaging is made from unbleached recycled cardboard or paper which should be recycled again.

What are people saying about the FSC Certified Unbleached Carnauba Waxed Paper?
Been using this for months — love that it’s plastic-free and reliable.
Replacing plastic wrap; began using this a year ago for wrapping baked goods, sandwiches, etc. Lightweight but sturdy.
Love this waxed paper! I plan to purchase it again in the future once I run out.
It’s crazy expensive but I prefer it to other brands by far; sturdier and performs really well for my needs — I even use it on my cutting board.
The wax paper is great. However, the box is substandard. I end up using an empty Glad wrap box because it’s sturdier and has a better edge for cutting. Same issue with the parchment paper.
How to use
Use this waxed paper to wrap sandwiches, cheeses, baked goods, or to prep food on the counter without mess. It’s perfect for cold food storage and won't alter the flavor of your food.
Note: Do not use for baking or reheating, wax will melt under heat. After use, simply compost the paper in your home or municipal compost bin.
