Professional Presentation

A4 Interlocking Folders are completely customizable with a choice of 0mm, 3mm, 5mm, 6mm, or 10mm gutter capacity. Folders are printed on the finest 350gsm silk paper, with a choice of matt, gloss, and soft touch laminations, and some come complete with die-cut business card slots. You can choose between single or double-sided printing, as well as single or double-sided lamination. We advise laminating folders that have solid ink coverage across creases in order to prevent cracking and protect against wear and tear. Opt for our Spot UV print if you're after a premium and distinctive look.

Use our Folders Template Guide to understand which template is right for you.

Technical Specifications for A4 Interlocking folders

  • Folders are oversized to accommodate the chosen paper size. For example, an A4 folder is slightly larger than an A4 size to fit A4 paper with room to spare.
  • When submitting artwork, please send us two files: one with the artwork template visible and overlaid on your artwork, and another with the template removed, displaying only your artwork. We use the first document to check your files are accurate, and we will proof and print the second document.
  • For Spot UV Folders please submit two files, one with the artwork template visible and overlaid on your artwork, and another with the template removed, displaying only your artwork.  The Spot UV can be applied to the outer cover only.

Your guide file should show the CMYK artwork and the Spot UV artwork (in 100% K) along with the folder template.

Single-Sided - Print front, Spot UV front.

Double-Sided - Print front, Print back, Spot UV front, blank page. It is recommended you do not place words, page numbers, or images too close to the edges of each page.  We would recommend a safe zone on all sides of at least 3mm for Spot UV folders.

For a single sided folder, a 2-page PDF is needed – page 1 for CMYK print, page 2 for spot UV in 100% K, plus a second PDF with the template to check for position. For a double-sided folder, a 4-page PDF is needed – front CMYK, back CMYK, spot UV, blank – plus a second PDF with the template for both sides.

  • The Spot UV artwork should contain solid black shapes in the exact position where the Spot UV is required. Please ensure Spot UV artwork is 100% black does not contain any cyan, magenta, or yellow, and is supplied as a vector (rather than a bitmap) to ensure the best result.
  • Please note: Spot UV is applied using a process similar to screen printing and has registration tolerances of approximately ±0.5 mm. It is not therefore recommended that small text or thin lines are Spot UV'd as a perfect register cannot be guaranteed.
  • Please note that Spot UV is only available on the outside of the folder front or back.

For more guidance on how to successfully set up and submit your artwork for folders, see our folders technical guide.
