Our high-end materials, precise folder construction, and beautiful print quality will make your pocket folder stand out.

STANDARD ONE + TWO POCKET
Our standard pocket folders are so much more than just a folder. To make them truly stand out, we offer lots of options from horizontal to vertical pockets and one- or two-sided printing.
PORTFOLIO
Portfolio folders offer the same quality and same design options as our standard folders but with a variety of unique portfolio closures to keep your materials in place.
GLUELESS
Our adhesive-free, sustainable folders offer an innovative yet simple pocket construction. These folders ship flat and are easy to assemble: just fold, tuck, and lock!
EXPANDABLE
When you need to supersize the capacity of the pockets to hold more materials than the average folder, our expandable and high capacity pocket folders are a great solution.
Expandable pocket and USB pocket.
CUSTOM
While we have hundreds of pocket folder dies available, there is always more room for creativity and the need for new designs.

Folder Finishing
Unlike protective liquid finishes such as aqueous coating, varnish or UV, film lamination actually reinforces paper- extending the life and improving the performance of printed pieces. Since it’s a film, it stretches and flexes, something liquid coatings can not do.
MATTE SOFT TOUCH – Nylon Lamination
Smooth, silky appearance – creates a refined, elegant look
Subtle surface texture creates a “soft touch” tactile feel.
NATURAL MATTE – Polypropylene Lamination
Subtle appearance
Non-reflective; minimizes color shift
Scratch-resistant finish
Virtually eliminates fingerprints
GLOSS – Nylon Lamination
Clear, shiny film that enhances printing and intensifies color
A great choice when you want a clean look and color that really stands out
Optional linen texture: embossed textured finish minimizes fingerprints, scratching and scuffing, a good solid choice for heavily used materials
CARD CUTS + SLITS
Put additional information in the hands of your audience by providing a business card, brochure or CD/DVD as part of your custom folder. These cuts and slits come free of charge with your folder!
BUSINESS CARD SLITS
There are many options for card cuts as well as brochure and CD/DVD slits that can go on the pockets of your folder. This allows you to further customize the way the information is being held and perceived.
You can specify vertical or horizontal cuts for business cards or go with a universal card cut to keep your options open. Business card slits are usually changeable on pocket folder dies, and we provide standard card cuts on horizontal pockets at no charge.
USB POCKETS
We have a standard USB pocket that holds most USB drives or we can design a custom pocket that holds your specific flash drive.
DEBOSSING
A debossing adds a three-dimensional element to your pocket folder. A shape will be pressed into the paper and can be combined with foil stamping to intensify the visual effect of the debossing.
FOIL STAMPING
Foil stamping offers an elegant way of customizing your custom boxes and packaging. The wide range of available foils offers a look and feel as unique as your company.
Foils come in a wide selection of colors and finishes, from traditional metallic gold and silver, to metallic and matte foils in every color of the rainbow. Metallic foils are the most widely used stamping foils because they add a brilliant, eye-catching shine.
SPOT UV
Spot UV is great way to highlight and accentuate your art with a subtle contrast.
Applied after lamination or varnish, a contrasting spot UV picks up the light and gives a tactile feel to your box or packaging. Using a spot UV gloss combined with matte lamination is a great way to add contrasting finishes to your project, with maximum style.
For best results, we recommend our matte soft touch lamination, which works well with spot UV.

Tab Dividers
Whether you are using a box, a folder, or a binder, index tab dividers make it easy to organise your information. Take your branding to the next level with custom tab dividers to complement your material design. Offset or digitally printed, cut sheets and custom tab styles are a snap. Let us work with you to create the tab dividers that are perfect for you.
Type of Tab Dividers
OFFSET PRINTED TABS
Offset printed tab dividers have a full range of options from standard tab cuts to half-moon or custom. They are available in standard banks of 2 to 8 as well as custom configurations, including pocket pages, cut sheets and box tabs. Design your tab dividers to be printed either single- or double-sided and create a unique look by adding one of three lamination options, spot UV, or varnishes.
FULL BLEED DIGITAL TABS
Full bleed tab dividers allow more room for your creativity due to our full bleed capability. You can design your tabs for both the front and the back. You have 3 lamination choices available.
For runs of 50 to 350 sets of custom tab dividers, Corporate Image offers digitally printed options. *Tab Extensions, and Detail Options not available with this product)
STANDARD DIGITAL TABS
Don’t let the word “standard” fool you. These tab dividers offer endless design options and are ready to ship quickly. They come with a reinforced tab extension and binding edge for additional strength and longevity. We offer banks of 4 to 8 tabs with this option.
For runs of 50 to 350 sets of standard shape extension tab dividers.
CUT DIVIDER SHEETS
Continue your branding and image all the way through your binder with custom cut sheets. Cut sheets are a great option for a cover page with introductory information about your binder content. This can be the first thing that someone sees after opening your custom binder.
If you don’t like the tab extension but want to make it easier to navigate through your materials, cut sheets are your best choice! They can be used just like tab dividers to separate the different sections of your content, but do not have the extensions a regular tab divider would have.
