Greaseproof paper is paper that is impermeable to oil or grease, and is normally used in cooking or food packaging. It is usually produced by refining the paper stock [further explanation needed] and thus creating a sheet with very low porosity. This is then passed between hard pressure rollers (supercalendered) to further increase the density ...
