We can print on C6 to C4 on a whole range of different paper stocks,
dependent on your choice of digital or inkjet printing.
Whether you need to get envelopes printed to offer a prepaid (BRE) business reply service, or as part of a direct mail campaign, our turnaround times can be as little as 2 days for standard envelopes, depending on the quantity.
Our print to envelope technology means we can print on demand from a single envelope to 10,000 or more. Standard envelope sizes are available with windows (to enclose letters folded so that the name and address is visible) and windowless, with and without capacity. They can also be gummed or have peel and seal strips, but if choosing the latter be aware that they will require hand fulfilment, as they cannot be machine sealed.
All of our envelopes are sourced from FSC® accredited suppliers.
Colour envelope printing can give your marketing campaign a head start by piquing the interest of your audience from its first moment in your hand. From the simplicity of branding envelopes with your logo, setting a professional tone and reinforcing your corporate identity, to printing full colour promotional images to support a specific campaign. We can print 9,000 colour envelopes per hour, using 5 colours and to a print resolution of up to 1600 dpi.
For large print runs that don’t require colour printing or the polished look of laser printed envelopes, we recommend inkjet printing. With run speeds of 30,000 envelopes per hour its much faster and more cost efficient. To minimise your costs further, only print on one side of the envelope.
Choosing the right envelope size
If you find envelope sizes confusing, here’s a useful tip. Simply swap the ‘A’ letter of your finished paper size with the letter ‘C’.
C4 envelopes – fit an A4 sheet. This is the perfect size if you don’t want to fold the enclosed A4 contents, but be aware that this will cost significantly more to post as it falls into the large letter tariff.
C5 envelopes – fit and A5 sheet (or A4 folded in half). C5 envelopes fall into the standard letter mailing tariff.
C6 envelopes – fit an A6 postcards or an A5 sheet folded in half.
DL envelopes – for A4 letters folded into thirds.

Excellent service! The staff members were extremely friendly and all communication was quick. We were sending bulk mail however they were able to secure us a date within a week of enquiring and there were no issues at all. Would absolutely recommend

I recently worked with The Mailing People for a Advert direct mail campaign and was extremely satisfied with their service. The team was professional, efficient, and communicative throughout the entire process. The mailing was completed on time and the quality was excellent. I highly recommend The Mailing People for any direct mail needs.

I was so pleased with the service I received from The Mailing People in particular the patient support from Rachel our assigned project manager. They went above and beyond to help make sure that our postcard direct mail-out was exactly how we wanted it and I was very impressed with the quality of the finished product. I will definitely be working with them again for all our future mail-out campaigns.
