They set the stage for whatever product or service you need to sell, appeal you are making or the message you want to convey. Custom printed envelopes are a simple item that can make a big impression!

Where’s the Flap! – What are the different flap types for commercial envelopes?
Standard size Commercial Envelopes have different types of flaps. Standard, Square, Wallet, Side Seam or Policy envelopes are all choices. The square flap commercial envelopes are sometimes the most difficult to source and therefore carries a higher cost to print but it does have the cool factor of looking more like an announcement envelope. Side Seam envelopes refer to where the envelopes are glued. See diagram below for more details. Wallet style have a much longer square flap and the Policy envelope has the flap on the short side.
