Custom Rigid Mailers

The world has become digital, and it takes a few seconds to deliver pictures and important papers even over long distances. But there are still many important papers, such as legal papers, handmade artworks, pictures, and many other items that need to be shipped. They require special care; otherwise, they will bend and get damaged.

The rigid mailer envelopes ensure that these papers are transported safely. These are made with durable material that can handle the pressure and rough handling.

Key Features Of Custom Rigid Mailers

The Custom Mailing Envelopes have some distinct features because of their carefully made structure, along with user-focused features. The following are some of the features of custom rigid mailers.

Structural Rigidity

These bend-resistant mailers have thick walls that defy bending under high pressure during shipment. Also, the sides of the mailers don’t bend even if they fall. This is because they are made of thick, high-quality material. Paperboard typically ranges from 350 to 600 GSM, while chipboard and corrugated board are measured by thickness in pt or mm.

Handling Alerts

They are often printed with easily readable warning text that instructs workers to keep them flat.

Tear-Resistant And Light Moisture Protection

They are strong enough that they resist tearing. They also protect the products from light moisture from the outside.

Tamper-Evident Seal

These self-seal rigid mailers are made with industry-grade adhesive that provides a strong seal within seconds. This seal is tamper-evident, which means that any attempt to open the mailer is easy to spot, so the important papers stay secure.

Uses Across Different Sectors

These custom-branded mailers are used in different industries and serve different purposes. Below are some of the most common uses of these mailers:

Pictures

Rigid mailers for photos are used to pack and ship pictures over long distances. They help to keep the shiny surface of the pictures safe from scratches, light moisture, and corners getting damaged.

Artworks

The custom-made rigid mailers for art prints are used to transport limited-edition paintings and other exclusive artwork collections to different customers. They keep them safe from any damage such as creases or bending.

Legal Documents

The legal documents, especially those that are issued by the courts, need special Rigid Mailers for documents. These have special printing and make sure that the papers reach the recipient in the safest way.

Educational Papers

Educational papers such as certificates and diplomas are often sent to people after they are stamped by the required authorities. These papers must reach the recipient without any bend or crease, so different types of custom mailers are used. For this purpose, custom certificate mailers or diploma mailers are used.

Books And Invitations

People like to send invitations for their special events in hard form. The custom mailers serve this purpose really well. Also, some books are transported using custom book mailers.

Customization Options to Make Rigid Mailers

For custom branding, there are different things that you can do. You can choose from the materials and printing to final finishing and add-ons. These help customers make the mailers according to their requirements.

High-Grade Material To Provide Strength

The materials are the basis of mailers that give them strength. If the material is not strong, it will lead to bending and creasing during handling. Below are the materials that are used to make rigid mailers:

Paperboard

It is a cost-effective and recyclable material that is used by different brands. It offers a smooth surface for printing.

Chipboard

It is a sturdy, stiff, and recyclable material that is used to make rigid paperboard mailers. They are used to ship heavy books or documents without bending.

Natural Kraft

It is known for its brown and natural look and high tear-resistance property. This is preferred by brands that want recyclable rigid mailer envelopes.

Corrugated Board

This material has high strength because of its layers and wavy flutes. This gives another layer of protection while staying lightweight yet strong. It is also recyclable.

Printing, Finishing and Inserts

These techniques make the final look of the mailers alluring.

Printing Options Used

After selecting the right material, printing is the next important step. It determines the look of the mailers. It is particularly important when you want to write specific instructions on the mailers regarding the product or its handling. We use the following techniques for custom-printed rigid mailers. The type of technique that we use depends on order quantity and some other factors.

• Offset printing
•  Digital printing
•  Flexographic printing

When brands want custom rigid mailers with a logo, we go with PMS printing. This is because it gives high color accuracy.

Finishing Options to Enhance the Appearance

The finishing techniques are used to protect the outer surface from abrasion and other damage. Along with this, they also improve the appearance. The logo, brand name, and handling instructions are the key details on a mailer, and finishing helps them stand out. You can use the following finishing options:

Protective Inserts for Rigid Mailers

Inserts are sometimes used in these rigid mailers to provide extra protection to the products. For paintings and artworks, glassine papers are used to wrap the pictures so that the front remains safe. For packaging small jewelry items, bubble wrap inserts are used that provide another protective layer, especially to handle the pressure during shipping.

Most Commonly Used Sizes

The sizes of custom shipping envelopes vary. This is because it depends on the size of the item that has to be shipped in them. There are some standard sizes that are used in the market, which are listed below. But you can always get custom sizes from us.

Note: Always choose an interior size that is slightly larger than the item you want to ship, so that it slides in easily without bending.

Different Closing Styles for Custom Rigid Mailers

These mailers have different styles by which they can be opened. Some of the most commonly used ones are

Tuck-in flap

This is a non-sealable style in which the extended flap of the paper board tucks into the slot on the back of the envelope.

Peel and seal strip

This is a tamper-evident seal that has an in-built strip of adhesive that comes with a removable release liner. Once the liner is removed and the flap is pressed, it creates a strong seal that shows if the mailer has been opened.

String and button closure

This features a string attached to a button on the flap. To close the mailer, the string is wound around a second button on the body of the envelope.
