Mailing Envelopes Made for Safe, Easy, and Professional Shipping

Not every item needs a large shipping box. Many flat items need light and strong packaging. These items include papers, photos, books, prints, calendars, and catalogs. Small items can also fit well in mailing envelopes.

At Umbrella Custom Packaging, we make mailing envelopes for many types of businesses. We work with online stores, offices, schools, print shops, and retail brands. We also serve publishers and marketing firms.

Our envelopes can fit the item you want to ship. So, you can use less extra packing. At the same time, your items can get a clean and neat look.

Why Cardboard Mailing Envelopes Work for More Than Documents

Normal paper envelopes are thin. So, they may not protect items from bending.

Cardboard mailing envelopes are much stronger. They give more support to the item inside. Still, they stay light and flat. So, they can be a good choice instead of a large shipping box.

These envelopes work well for photos and art prints. You can also use them for books, magazines, catalogs, and cards. In addition, they can hold papers, calendars, samples, and small retail items.

We can also add strong edges and safe flaps. Peel-and-seal strips are another option. Tear strips can also make the pack easy to open. In addition, you can use thicker board when you need more strength.

Materials Selected for Mailing Strength and Presentation

The right material depends on the item you want to ship. For example, papers may need a light stock. However, books and art prints may need a stronger board.

Natural Kraft Paper: 250 GSM, 300 GSM, and 350 GSM

SBS Paperboard: 300 GSM (16 Pt), 350 GSM (18 Pt), and 400 GSM (24 Pt)

Premium Cardstock: 16 Pt, 18 Pt, and 24 Pt

Rigid Paperboard: Available for premium papers and display mailers

Corrugated Board: E-Flute and F-Flute for items that need more strength during shipping

Recycled Paperboard: Available for brands that want a more natural packing option

We also offer FSC-certified and recyclable paper options. So, you can choose the stock that works best for your needs.

Custom Printed Mailing Envelopes Turn Every Shipment into Branding

The shipping pack is often the first thing a buyer sees. So, it can be a good place to show your brand. Custom printed mailing envelopes can turn a plain mailer into a branded pack. You can print your logo and brand colors on it. You can also add patterns and short brand messages. In addition, you can print social media details and QR codes. Website details, return details, offers, and campaign art can also be added.

We offer offset and digital printing. CMYK full-color printing is also available. In addition, you can choose Pantone matching and one-color kraft printing. We can also print both the inside and outside.

So, you can choose a print style that fits your brand and budget.

Personalized Mailing Envelopes for Campaigns and Special Deliveries

Some orders need a more personal touch. So, personalized mailing envelopes can be a good choice.

Brands can use them for media kits and event invites. They can also work well for VIP buyers and new product launches. In addition, you can use them for subscription plans and holiday offers.

You can add names and short messages. You can also add event art and special QR codes. In addition, custom inserts can make the pack feel more personal.

As a result, each order can feel more special. Still, you do not need to change the full pack style.

Custom Mailing Envelopes Sized Around What You Actually Ship

A large mailer can waste space and paper. Also, the item may move inside the pack.

For this reason, we make custom mailing envelopes to fit your item. We can use its exact size and depth. As a result, the item gets a better fit.

Common size options include:

Small Document Mailer: 6" × 9"

Standard Document Mailer: 9" × 12"

Letter & Certificate Mailer: 10" × 13"

Catalog Mailer: 10" × 15"

Large Document Mailer: 12" × 15.5"

Book & Publication Mailer: 12" × 16"

Artwork & Photography Mailer: 14" × 18"

Custom sizes are also available. For example, we can make mailers for books, prints, samples, and subscription items. We can also make them for promo kits and other flat goods.

In addition, we can change the depth and gussets. We can also change the opening side, flap size, and seal style.

A Better Mailing Experience for a Growing Los Angeles Print Business

Think about a Los Angeles photo and print shop. It ships photos, papers, and small art prints across the United States.

Normal paper envelopes may be too weak. So, the corners of prints may bend during shipping. Large boxes can solve this issue. However, they may have too much space.

Custom rigid cardboard envelopes can be a better choice. First, strong board can help keep the prints flat. Also, the right size can stop them from moving inside.

A peel-and-seal strip can make packing fast. At the same time, a printed logo can give the mailer a neat brand look.

A tear strip can also make the pack easy to open. In addition, you can print a QR code inside. It can take buyers to care tips, other items, or social media pages.

As a result, better mailers can make shipping easier. They can also cut extra space. Most of all, they can give each order the same brand look.

Finishing Options for Premium Mailing Envelopes

Mailing envelopes can have a simple look. However, you can also add special finishes when you want a premium style.

Available options include:

  • Matte lamination
  • Gloss lamination
  • Soft-touch lamination
  • Aqueous coating
  • Spot UV
  • Gold foil stamping
  • Silver foil stamping
  • Embossing
  • Debossing
  • Natural kraft finish
  • Printed interiors
  • Custom die-cut details

For example, simple print on kraft paper can work well for daily online orders. It gives the pack a clean look at a fair cost.

On the other hand, PR packs and premium invites may need a richer look. So, foil or Spot UV can be a good choice.

For light online orders, explore our kraft mailers for a simple, strong, and neat shipping option.

Mailing Envelopes for Retail, Business, and E-Commerce Applications

Mailing envelopes can hold many types of items. So, they can work well for many businesses.

Common applications include:

  • Business documents
  • Certificates
