Despite the perception, Jiffy Bag Envelopes are more environmentally friendly than you think as these are manufactured from Responsible and Sustainable Forestry sources, with FSC Certification C014176 and from a Climate neutral company with ClimateParner® CP-ID 53534-1402-1004.

The bubble lining contains 80% recycled content and the envelopes can be recycled after use. No solvents are used in their production and printing at TradePrintingUK.

The envelope interior is covered in air bubble padding to protect the contents from damage, plus they're very light and will add very little to your postage weight.

The glue behind the protective strip on the envelope's flap is very strong, and due to this protective glue strip it can be stored in you office for a long time without the risk of it drying out and becoming useless.

Its flap is a "Pocket" style version (on the short edge) and also has holes to put ties through to make it even more secure or for filing.

Our Bubble Envelopes are FSC Certified, manufactured with 75gsm paper from responsible and sustainable sources.
