Use for multi-media mailings and more!
These rigid cardboard envelopes post documents, files, DVDs, books and other flat items without bending or tearing. The 400gsm solid board gives these rigid envelopes a structure and resistance against bending and punctures with corner edge protection for added security in transit. The long-edge opening lets you pack wide items such as books, magazines and prints by sliding them in from the side. It's ideal for fast-paced, high-volume environments, items slide in and out quickly, saving time at the packing bench and giving customers a smoother unboxing experience on delivery. A peel-off self-adhesive strip seals it without tape, and a built-in tear-off strip lets the recipient open it cleanly without cutting the contents. Available in four sizes from 233 x 178mm up to 398 x 276mm (opening width x internal height) covering large letter and small parcel mail formats. The board is made from 100% recycled material and is 100% recyclable. The packs arrive sealed in boxes to keep them clean before use.
Sold and priced per pack. Quantity discounts apply on three or more packs.
Where do these rigid cardboard envelopes work best?
The rigid cardboard envelopes suits postal and e-commerce teams sending flat items that must stay uncreased, with quick sealing and clean opening at the customer end.
- Documents and files, where 400gsm solid board keeps paperwork flat and guards against punctures and tearing.
- Books and catalogues, where the long edge opening allows for wider items to be packed easily.
- DVDs and media, where rigid mailers resist bending during handling and sorting.
Not for
- Fragile, bulky or impact-sensitive items. Use a cardboard box where contents need space for cushioning and edge protection.
- Soft goods that do not need board rigidity. Use Mailing bags where flexibility matters more.
- Liquids, powders or items that can leak. Use sealed primary packaging before any postal outer.
