C4 Envelope Size

C4 envelopes can be your envelope of choice for a number of different purposes. The large surface offered by C4 size envelopes should be leveraged by getting creative and using it as a marketing medium in itself rather than a simple envelope. In general, C4 envelopes are most common for sending important business and transactional letters. Anything from contracts to invoices are commonly sent in such envelopes as they are formal documents which cannot be folded. Such envelopes can therefore contribute to giving your brand a professional image by avoiding folding documents.

Another less known use for such an envelope is to hand it out at your events or your fairs as a way to group all useful information for visitors in one place. The envelopes can include badges, a plan, a program, promotional material from sponsors and anything else. This is a great cheap alternative to paper or cotton bags which are much more expensive, offering a credible option for those on a lower budget.
