Frequently Asked Questions
What are custom folders?
Custom folders are printed presentation, pocket, and file folders made to your size and design. They hold documents, brochures, and handouts while displaying your logo, brand colors, and artwork, so they organize materials and promote your brand at the same time.
What size are standard custom folders?
The standard presentation folder is 9 by 12 inches, which holds US Letter (8.5 by 11 inch) pages with room to spare. We also produce legal-size folders at 9.5 by 14.5 inches, compact mini folders, and A4 sizes, all fully customizable to your documents.
What pocket options are available?
You can choose single-pocket or double-pocket folders, gusseted expanding pockets for thick document sets, and pockets with die-cut business-card slits. We can also add reinforced edges, 3-hole punching for binders, and tabs for filing systems.
What materials and finishes can I choose for folders?
Folders are printed on sturdy 14pt to 18pt cardstock, with recyclable kraft available for eco-conscious programs. Add finishes like soft-touch, matte, or gloss lamination, gold or silver foil stamping, spot UV, embossing, debossing, and reinforced edges.
What printing options do you offer for folders?
We print with high-resolution offset and digital printing and match your brand colors using CMYK or Pantone (PMS) inks. Eco-friendly soy- and water-based inks are available, and full-bleed printing lets your design cover the front, back, and inside pockets.
What is the minimum order quantity for custom folders?
We offer low minimum orders, so you can start with a small batch for one event or department and reorder as you need. Share your quantity when you request a quote and we will price it accordingly.
How much do custom folders cost?
Cost depends on the folder type, size, material, quantity, and finishing you choose. Because we manufacture factory-direct with no reseller markup and no setup fees, our wholesale prices are typically lower than buying through a middleman. Request a free quote for exact pricing.
How long does it take to receive my folders?
Standard production and delivery is about 10 to 12 business days after artwork approval, with rush turnaround of 6 to 8 business days available on most orders when you are on a deadline.
Can I get a sample before placing a full folder order?
Yes. You can request a free sample kit to feel our stocks and finishes, or ask for a pre-production proof of your own design when you request a quote, so you can approve the look before the full run.
