Pricing tiers
Quick answer
Order 500-1,000 for the best balance of savings and storage. Always test samples first, checking board thickness, seal quality, and whether contents stay protected when the envelope is flexed. Get quotes from 3+ suppliers. Ask about call-off orders for bulk pricing with staged delivery. Store in a dry area to prevent warping.
Quality checks
Flex the envelope gently. The board backing should resist bending and spring back.
Peel-and-seal should bond firmly and not peel open in transit.
Use a scale to check GSM if possible, or compare thickness with callipers.
Low-quality envelopes that fail in post cost more in replacements and reputation.
Supplier tips: FSC sourcing or GSM guide.
Storage and handling
Store flat in a dry environment. Do not bend envelopes are sensitive to moisture which can soften the board backing and reduce rigidity. Keep in original packaging until needed. Stack no more than 50cm high to prevent compression.
