Catalog or booklet? You can choose between these two styles of rigid mailers depending on what suits your needsCatalog mailers have the opening and the flap on the shorter side while booklet envelopes have them on the longer partEach style comes with a specific size option: 

  • 10” x 13” Booklet Style fits a 9” x 12 presentation folder.

How are Rigid Mailers Best Used?   

When sending documents and sensitive material, you need all the protection you can get. Custom rigid mailers securely seal your packages and ensure a safe delivery to its destination.  

Here are a few guidelines to follow to get the most out of your rigid mailers: 

Get the right size. It’s tempting to order the biggest size for the extra space but with rigid mailers, you want a snug fit to minimize movement and friction during shipping and handling. 

Choose between 14 pt. or 16 pt. Cardstock for your rigid mailers. 14 pt. Cardstock is our most popular material for mailers and is perfect for bulk printing. The 16 pt. is slightly thicker, more durable, and offers a more premium touch. Three types of finishes are available for rigid mailersThe lamination is on the outside while the inside is uncoated. 

  • Gloss reflects light and gives the material a brilliant sheen that makes vivid colors pop. 
  • Matte gives your rigid mailers’ colors a more subdued but elegant look. Its non-glossy surface provides better writability. 
  • High Gloss (UV) is UV-coated on the front. The UV coating gives it a glossy shine that protects the surface from scratches and scuffs. 

 

Design with the recipient in mind. Rigid mailers are printed in full color on one side and have an easy-tear tab on the other. Ensure a fuss-free experience for the recipient. The easy-tear tab lets you smoothly open and accesses the documents right away  no need to tear several flaps or flip the contents.

“Great product, well produced, nicely priced, awesome customer service.”

“Good quality and full color printing. I went with a deep blue color- and aside from some scuffs on the edges, none of the inner white paper shows through when the envelope is sealed- which is certainly a step above other companies that have the white showing on the outside. Print quality was great- sharp image and true to color.”

“Mailers are wonderful! Shipping was less awesome. It took 10 days longer than the original estimated arrival. Then an additional 3 days past the updated ETA.”

Q:
Are these made in portrait or landscape construction
Asked 18 days ago by Tammy
A:

There is no requirement for the orientation as we would print it the way your design is laid out. The position of the opeining is constant so this will also allow the end user to turn the mailer sideways and view the artwork accordingly. There is an option for bigger width (13" x 10") where the opening is on the wider side which would tend to point to a landscape. 

Q:
When assembled, do the side flaps get glued down on the outside or inside of the mailer? It's hard to tell for sure from template. It looks like they get tucked inside because the safe zone for artwork goes to the edge of the fold.
Asked 2 months ago by Kim G.
A:

Yes, you are correct. The flap on the back side of the Mailer is inside so you can put artwork on the whole page at the back except for the part that will be covered by the envelope flap. If you can order a free sample kit, we actually use these Rigid Mailers to contain all our sample products and paper stocks. 

Q:
do they come assembled ready to use? or do u have to assemble?
Asked 7 months ago by jeremiah
A:

The Rigid Mailers come flat, just as you see on the image. There is no assemply and you just need to unpeal the strip of double sided tape to seal in the contents.  

If you are referring to our Mailer Boxes, these actually also come flat and will require assembly but we do include a set of instructions on how to do this. 

Q:
How can I get a 6x6 or 6x8 custom printed rigid mailer? I'm looking for something that USPS won't classify as a "Large Envelope" and thereby save on postage.
Asked 7 months ago by Jonathan
A:

Since this is a specific size outside the standard offering, it would be better to call and coordinate with our custom department to see if this would be cheaper. Also, if it isnt critical in terms of the content of your mailer, please check out our Poly Mailers as this also reduces postage costs. 

Q:
Can I get a quote on how much it would cost to get customized rigid mailers with our logo and return address? The mailer would need to fit our 9 x 12 envelopes.
Asked 8 months ago by Brynn
A:

Your 9"x12" envelope will fit in our 10"x13" rigid mailers. Yes, we may customize it according to your design. Please have your print-ready file that includes your logo and return address. You may check it out here: https://www.uprinting.com/rigid-mailers.html?
