Pressboard File Folders

Pressboard File Folders

Today I’m writing about the different kinds of Pressboard folders available from Advanced Filing Concepts.

We carry top tab pressboard folders and end tab pressboard folders.

Within those two specific styles, there are Type 1 pressboard, Type 2 Pressboard and Type 3 Pressboard styles.
Type 1 Pressboard: Type 1 Pressboard is the filing industry’s standard type of pressboard folder.  It is a 20pt. thickness which is the strongest and most durable of the pressboard family.  Type 1 pressboard has a distinctive mottle, or marble appearance with a smooth glossy finish.  Type 1 pressboard is used when superior durability and a very professional appearance is desired.  Type 1 Pressboard folders are only available in end tab / side tab styles.
Type 2 Pressboard: Type 2 Pressboard is a 25pt. “guidex” which is a versatile material used not only in office filing products but in a range of industrial applications.  It exhibits an intermediate range of hardness and density with an excellent finish and very high quality of rigidity.
Type 3 Pressboard:
Type 3 Pressboard is a 25.pt “valtex” which is a good, functional grade of pressboard and is used in a wide range of filing applications.  It has a good finish and excellent rigidity.  Type 3 pressboard is used best in high-volume applications where the desirable appearance of Type 1 or durability of Type 2 are not needed.

Filing.com, Advanced Filing Concepts’ website, carries all three types of pressboard folders.  We also have all of Smead’s pressboard folders available for purchase as well.  If you’re looking for a strong, lasting file folder, pressboard folders are your answer.  For more information, please visit www.filing.com or call us at 1-800-373-9133 and we can answer any questions you may have.
