Looking for a way to spruce up office communications or add pizzazz to personal mailing supplies? At Staples, we offer a wide range of colored envelopes in a variety of sizes and hues to do just that. Whichever color you choose, your mail will stand out among the rest.
What Are Colored Envelopes?
Add a pop of color and properly organize your mailings with colorful envelopes. They’re easy to differentiate between, great for color coding information and quickly visible among other pieces of mail. Colored envelopes come in many shades and sizes, and they can be mailed just like regular business envelopes as long as there is no interference with the reading of the information or postmark.
What Are the Benefits of Colorful Envelopes?
Whether you’re sending letters, assorted greeting cards, party invitations, memos or something else, colored envelopes are great for making your mail unique. With a wide selection of colors available, you can match any party theme or branding requirements for business correspondence.
Some products have multiple different colors in the same pack, such as yellow, red, blue, green, orange, dark purple and black. These are perfect for organizing mailings as each color can represent a letter type or recipient. For those who aren’t looking for multicolor packs, there are also single-color options.
What Kind of Colored Envelope Should You Buy?
The main distinction between various types of colored envelopes are the styles, the closure and the quantity available for purchase.
Styles
There are a few different envelope styles to choose from, each with their own characteristics. Read on to see which one fits your needs.
Catalog
Catalog, also known as open-end envelopes, have a center seam that is ideal for mailing heavyweight materials. Use them for client-facing sales presentations or anything else that requires extra protection.
Booklet
Booklet envelopes are built with a strong center seam like catalog varieties, but they have one major design difference. The flap runs down the long side rather than the short end. This wider mouth makes it easier to stuff multiple mailings in rapid succession.
Invitation
These colorful envelopes fall under the social announcement category and typically have a square flap design. These can be used for smaller brochures and promotional pieces, as well as business stationery, for a premium look.
Closure Types
There are several different closure styles available. Users who are intentional and have a particular preference can benefit from knowing the different types.
- Button & String
- Clasp
- Gummed
- Hook & Loop
- Moistenable Glue
- Open End
- Self Seal
- Unsealed
