Business & Correspondence Envelopes

Business and Commercial Envelopes are the professional standard for office correspondence, formal letters, and everyday mailing needs. These versatile envelopes come in various sizes and flap styles to suit different requirements.

The standard #10 envelope is the most widely used business envelope in the United States. With options including Square Flap, Policy, and Commercial flap styles, the #10 has become popular for both professional and personal correspondence. Choosing a #10 envelope with a square flap can add a distinctive touch to what might otherwise be considered a conventional envelope design.

Commercial flaps provide reliable sealing for everyday use, while wallet flaps offer a larger area ideal for custom printing or branding. Side seam construction makes these envelopes perfect for machine insertion in high-volume mailing operations.

The open side design makes booklet envelopes ideal for automated insertion equipment, making them perfect for high-volume mailings. Their flat, clean appearance maintains a professional look for your marketing materials, while providing ample space for addressing and postal markings.

Booklet envelopes are commonly used for annual reports, marketing brochures, sales materials, magazines, catalogs, and promotional literature. Their wide variety of sizes accommodates nearly any document dimensions, from small pamphlets to full-size publications.

Catalog Envelopes

Catalog Envelopes feature center seam construction, making them exceptionally durable for mailing heavy-weight materials and bulky items. Their robust design makes them perfect for shipping catalogs, large publications, and important documents that require extra protection.

The center seam provides superior strength compared to side seam construction, allowing these envelopes to handle significant weight without tearing. This makes catalog envelopes the preferred choice for sending substantial documents that need to arrive in pristine condition.

Due to their unique construction, catalog envelopes cannot be processed through automatic inserting equipment or laser printers. They are designed primarily for manual insertion of heavier materials where durability is the priority over automation compatibility.

Square Envelopes

Square Envelopes offer a contemporary, distinctive alternative to traditional rectangular envelopes. Their unique proportions immediately capture attention, making them perfect for wedding invitations, special announcements, greeting cards, and creative marketing materials.

Constructed with side seams and featuring a modern square flap, these envelopes combine style with practicality. Their unconventional shape stands out in a stack of mail, ensuring your message receives the attention it deserves.

Important Postal Information: Square envelopes are considered non-standard by the US Postal Service and require additional postage for mailing. Be sure to check current postal regulations when using square envelopes for your mailings.

Baronial Envelopes

Baronial Envelopes feature an elegant design with a deep pointed flap and diagonal seams. Their classic, sophisticated appearance makes them the traditional choice for formal business announcements, wedding invitations, and high-end greeting cards.

The distinctive pointed flap of baronial envelopes adds a touch of formality and elegance that immediately signals the importance of the enclosed document. This traditional design has been associated with formal correspondence for generations, conveying a sense of importance and refinement.

Due to their specialized construction, baronial envelopes are not recommended for machine insertion. Their design prioritizes aesthetics and tradition over automation compatibility, making them best suited for hand-insertion of important formal documents.
