Full details

These Q-Connect C5 pocket envelopes are designed for businesses and individuals who regularly mail documents. They offer a secure and professional way to send letters and A4 documents folded once, featuring a self-seal closure for convenience. A potential drawback is the standard 90gsm paper weight, which may not be suitable for extremely sensitive or heavy contents requiring extra rigidity.

FAQs

What size document fits in a C5 envelope?

A C5 envelope (229 x 162mm) is designed to hold an A4 sheet of paper folded in half once.

How does the self-seal closure work?

The flap has a dry adhesive strip. When you press the flap down onto the envelope body, the pressure activates the adhesive, creating a strong bond.

Are these envelopes suitable for international post?

Yes, they are suitable for standard postage. Ensure correct postage is applied based on weight and destination.

Can I write on these envelopes?

Yes, you can write on the envelopes with most standard pens. The surface is suitable for handwriting or label printing.

What does '90gsm' mean?

GSM stands for 'grams per square meter'. 90gsm indicates the weight and thickness of the paper used, signifying a standard, durable paper quality for envelopes.

How should I store these envelopes?

Store them in a cool, dry place, away from direct sunlight and excessive humidity, to preserve the adhesive and paper quality.

Troubleshooting

Self-seal flap not sticking

Ensure the sealing surface is clean and dry. Press down firmly along the entire length of the flap for at least 30 seconds. If issues persist, the batch may be old; consider a different pack.

Window is obscured

Ensure your address label or handwriting does not extend beyond the window area (90 x 45mm). For handwritten addresses, ensure clear, legible writing.

Envelopes feel flimsy

The 90gsm weight is standard for regular mail. For more rigid items, consider using a board-backed envelope or adding extra cardboard inside.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Convenient self-seal closure saves time and eliminates the need for licking.
  • Window allows for clear display of addresses, reducing manual writing.
  • Durable 90gsm paper provides a reliable feel for regular mailings.
  • Opaque interior offers privacy for sensitive documents.
  • Cost-effective bulk pack for high-volume users.

Cons

  • The 90gsm paper may lack the rigidity for very thick or sensitive documents.
  • Self-seal adhesive can sometimes be less permanent than traditional gummed envelopes if not pressed firmly.
  • Window placement might not suit all mailing label formats.
  • Not suitable for mailing items that require extra padding or protection.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup: These envelopes require no setup. Simply insert your documents and press the self-seal flap firmly to close.

Compatibility: Compatible with standard C5 mail slots and postal systems. The window is designed to be compatible with most standard address labels and handwritten addresses.

Care: Store in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight and moisture to maintain the integrity of the paper and the self-seal adhesive. Avoid excessive handling that could damage the window or corners.
