Mailing Envelopes are custom-printed paper envelopes for businesses that send invoices, statements, and direct mail and want each piece to look on-brand in the mailbox. Your return address, logo, and artwork are printed in full-color CMYK on the envelope face.
A branded envelope gets opened more often than a plain white one, so it is a practical fit for billing, fundraising appeals, and customer mailings. Standard window and seal options keep your mailroom moving, and matching the envelope to your letterhead ties the whole mailing together.

Printing & Finishing
Choose a window for documents that show their own address, or a clean closed face for a polished look. A matte or gloss coating protects print through the mail stream, and a spot UV accent makes your logo catch the light when the envelope arrives.

Envelope Formats and Paper Weight at Volume
Envelope buying splits along format and paper weight. Booklet styles open on the long edge and suit inserted marketing material; catalog styles open on the short edge and take thicker contents. Paper weight decides opacity, so anything with sensitive data or heavy ink coverage benefits from stepping up a grade rather than adding a security tint alone.
| Envelopes ordered | Format and paper weight notes |
|---|---|
| 50 | Enough to confirm insert fit and seal behavior. |
| 500 | Single format, single weight, one color pass. |
| 1,000 | Add a window position without a new setup fee. |
| 5,000 | Heavier stock or a second ink hit becomes affordable. |
| 10,000+ | Direct mail campaign scale from about $0.44 per unit at volume. |
Expect roughly this cadence: about 7 business days where the envelope is in-house eligible, and about 12 weeks if specialty imported paper is specified. Take the spread as a planning aid you schedule around. Printed envelope orders ship free within the continental states.
