Every day, thousands of letters are sent in Sweden. Although we have all sent an envelope at one point, it's not always easy to keep track of all the different options and sizes of envelopes available. To make things easier we have made a guide with information about envelope sizes, envelope types, sealing options etc. Everything to make it easier for you to find the right envelope.
In Sweden, we have chosen to use the international standard for envelope sizes called ISO 269. This standard is designed to suit the most common paper sizes available on the market, eg. A4 etc.
In our range, we have chosen to offer the most popular envelope sizes on the market:
So what do the terms above mean?
| FORMAT | SIZE |
USE |
| C4 | 229x324 mm |
Fits an unfolded A4 sheet |
| C5 | 162x229 mm |
Fits an A5 sheet or an folded A4 sheet |
| C6 | 114x162 mm |
A smaller envelope that corresponds to a quarter of A4 |
| C7 | 81x114 mm |
|
| E65 | 110x220 mm |
Fits an A4 weight in three lengths |
| S65 | 110x225 mm |

When it comes to sealing envelopes, there are two options to choose from:
The are two types of adhesive seal: self seal and peal and seal. The big difference between the two is that the peal and seal alternative have a protective strip to give the envelopes longer shelf life.
Gummed means that each envelope must be moisten to seal.
Envelopes with windows are handy if letters with pre-printed addresses should be sent to the letters. The three most common window envelopes have the following designations:
|
NAME |
WINDOW PLACEMENT | |
|
H2 |
Window up to the right | 40 - 44 mm from the top |
|
V2 |
Window up to the lef | 40 - 44 mm from the top |
|
H3 |
Window up to the right | 61 - 65 mm from the top |
Padded envelopes are suitable for those who want to send fragile shipments and ensure that their items are protected against moisture, impact and damage throughout the entire delivery process. There are three types of padded envelopes:
A padded bag features a protective paper barrier and is a sustainable choice for safeguarding your shipment against bumps and impacts.
Both bubble bag and bubble envelope have a protective interior made of bubble wrap, providing protection against moisture, impact and damages.
If you need to send flat or smaller items such as important documents, a bubble envelope is a suitable option to prevent moisture from seeping in. For larger shipments like samples, we reccommend choosing a bubble bag.
