A method for packaging bone-in meat products using a self-adhesive bone cover wrap includes impregnating a non-woven polypropylene layer with a wax formulation. Microcrystalline wax, propylene glycol, and paraffin wax are combined to create the wax formulation. The self-adhesive bone cover wrap is particularly suitable for covering bone-in meat products including covering outwardly extending bones with the non-woven polypropylene layer precluding puncture of the bone cover wrap by the bones and self-adhering to itself to seal the meat product within.
