FAQs

What size paper do these boxes hold?

These boxes are specifically designed for A4 size paper (210 x 297 mm).

Are these boxes environmentally friendly?

Yes, they are FSC certified, meaning the cardboard is sourced from responsibly managed forests.

Can I choose the colors in the pack?

No, the boxes come in a random assortment of colors.

What is the thickness of the pressboard?

The boxes are made from 0.7mm thick, 600gsm premium pressboard.

How many boxes are in the pack?

This pack contains 10 individual filing boxes.

What is the width of the spine?

The spine width is 40mm.

Troubleshooting

Elastic strap loses tension

Check the anchor point where the elastic connects to the box to ensure it hasn't slipped out of its notch.

Spine label is hard to write on

Apply a standard adhesive label over the pre-printed area for a cleaner look or use a permanent marker.

Box edges bending

Ensure the contents are neatly stacked and not exceeding the 40mm capacity, as overfilling causes mechanical stress.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • High-quality 600gsm pressboard material
  • Generous 40mm capacity for A4 documents
  • FSC certified eco-friendly construction
  • Includes spine labels for easy indexing
  • Sturdy elastic closure ensures contents remain secure

Cons

  • Randomized color assortment may not suit uniform aesthetic needs
  • Fixed spine width limits storage to 40mm maximum
  • Not intended for non-paper items of significant depth

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup is straightforward: simply slide your A4 documents into the box and secure them with the attached elastic straps. The spine label can be written on directly or affixed with adhesive labels for clear identification. To ensure longevity, store these boxes in a dry, climate-controlled environment to prevent moisture damage to the pressboard. Because the material is embossed, dust can be easily wiped away with a dry cloth. Avoid overstuffing the boxes beyond the 40mm capacity, as this can strain the spine and make the elastic closure difficult to secure.
