Description

These 255x204mm cardboard envelopes are the perfect way to send flat small to medium-sized items. Designed to have a close fit to the product, you benefit from economical shipping and no wasted packaging materials. The thick cardboard material offers superior protection for your products without excess packaging.

These envelopes make an excellent addition to your packaging operation. They’re user-friendly and are packable in under 10 seconds. Our expandable cardboard envelopes feature a secure adhesive seal and an easy-open pull tab to provide a practical and sustainable packaging solution.

What Features Do Our Cardboard Envelopes Have?

Peel and seal: We are introducing more products to our peel & seal range because they reduce packing time and eradicate the need for additional tape to seal the package. Our corrugated envelopes have an overhanging release paper, making it much easier to remove and speeding up despatch time.

Tear open strip: These cardboard mailers and envelopes have a perforated strip and pull tab, making unboxing a swift and simple experience.

Expandable: Our cardboard envelopes are designed to be expandable, giving you more flexibility with the amount of product you can pack:

CE1 Standard Size 255 x 204mm (Expanded 195 x 164 x 60mm)
CE2 Standard Size 375 x 295mm (Expanded 315 x 235 x 60mm)
CE3 Standard Size 445 x 325 (Expanded 385 x 265 x 60mm).

Our cardboard envelopes are fully customisable! For quantities of 10,000 units and over, you can get your cardboard envelopes custom printed. Alternatively, you can get printed labels in quantities of 500 units or more to attach to our standard cardboard envelopes. The flat surfaces on the interior and exterior of the packaging give you plenty of space to promote your brand with custom artwork. If you don’t have a design in mind, our packaging experts are on hand to help with our packaging design services.

Expert packaging suppliers for over 40 years, with an emphasis on plastic-free packaging

In the late 1970s, two friends and colleagues, Tim Allen and Stewart Middleton saw a gap in the market for a different type of packaging supplier. At the time, other businesses were selling custom made boxes and stocking packaging consumables, but Tim and Stewart wanted to offer more than that. They wanted to give their clients additional services, such as warehouse storage and the ability to have their packaging delivered as and when it was required. Packaging Supplies was established, and the rest is history.
