Kraft Envelopes

Kraft Envelopes for Mailing and Document Enclosure

Kraft Envelopes are stationery envelopes made from brown kraft paper, offering a natural and understated appearance for document enclosure and mailing. They are suitable for businesses that prefer a less formal presentation or wish to convey an environmentally conscious image through their stationery.

These envelopes are supplied as loose items and are designed to accommodate commonly used document sizes. They are suitable for manual insertion and everyday mailing workflows where durability and practicality are required.

Kraft Envelopes are widely used by creative businesses, retail brands, cafés, and organisations seeking a more casual or eco-oriented presentation. Common applications include mailing letters, documents, printed materials, and internal correspondence where a natural look is preferred.

The paper used for kraft envelopes is selected for strength and tear resistance, providing protection for enclosed contents during handling and delivery. Due to the natural brown surface, print contrast and colour appearance differ from white envelopes and are considered during artwork preparation.

Standard sizes are available to match common document formats, with options designed for folded or flat insertion. Custom sizes may be supported subject to production suitability and mailing requirements.

Compared to white envelopes, kraft envelopes offer a distinctive and less formal appearance while maintaining functional reliability. They are often chosen for branding that emphasises simplicity, sustainability, or a handcrafted aesthetic.

All artwork is reviewed before production to ensure suitable colour contrast, placement, and print clarity on kraft paper. Proper setup is essential to achieve legible results on the natural paper surface.
