Envelopes are most commonly used for enclosing documents to be sent via the postal system. There are many other uses such as pouches for hotels, jewelry, invites and a wide selection of other business and mailing needs. We can manufacture custom envelopes as well as printing on envelopes directly. Most envelopes have a logo and address on the front. We can produce one, two or full colour envelopes. Plain and window envelopes are the most common types, while #10 is the most common size. Security features may be required, in such cases artline envelopes are used and have a patterned printed layer on the inside making it difficult to read the contents enclosed. There are two main types of sealing options, one is glued and moisture closed, while the other is a peel and stick that seals without moisture. Below you will find a partial list of standard envelope sizes.
