Packer of printed materials in envelopes. Types of postal packaging

With the advent and development of electronic communications, it would seem that such a long-known and simple subject of printing as envelope, should have faded somewhat into the background. But the company’s lack of envelopes with a logo or corporate design is usually considered bad manners. What is their main advantage? First of all, this includes formation and support of the company’s corporate identity and status in the market, as well asan opportunity to clearly express yourself so as not to get lost among competitors.

COST OF PRINTING ON ENVELOPES

The circulation, type of envelope, paper, presence of design elements and other individual features of the order affect the final cost. Prices can be found in the price list for services.

Basic types and formats of envelopes
Even within the same company and office space, envelopes have different purposes: for personal use, for transmitting official corporate information, etc. Shape, dimensions, type of paper, presence or absence of printing - these are the parameters that allow you to classify products:
Standard envelopes
Classic, usually white, envelopes without an image, for which you can use different manufacturing and gluing methods. Plain white envelopes can have any of the following possible sizes: C6 (114x162), E65 (Euroenvelope, 110x220), C65 (114x229), C5 (162x229), C4 (229x324), CD (125x125), MINI-CD (85x85).
Branded envelopes with printing
Envelopes with a logo or other corporate signs printed on the surface (images or short informational text with contact details or a company slogan). Envelopes with company logos can be made of any size on any paper (plain or designer).
Designer envelopes
The main feature of these envelopes is their exclusivity: not a single detail of the design, made according to the customer’s wishes, is repeated in other projects. At the same time, changes may be made to the design of designer envelopes, for example, if it is necessary to print envelopes with a corporate design to congratulate corporate clients. Any paper and printing method can be chosen.

    Types of packaging at Russian Post.

    Each of us had to use Russian postal services. When sending letters, parcels, parcels, mandatory packaging is required. Packaging is carried out by Russian Post directly at the post office. You should always take into account the weight and dimensions of the parcel.

    Main types of packaging at Russian Post.

    There are the following types of packaging: envelope, packaging bag, boxes of various sizes and types.

    Letters are sent in an envelope, which is also packaging. Envelopes can be paper or polyethylene, they can have different sizes and formats, and also be decorated in different ways.

    The bags can be filled with bubble wrap and equipped with a special adhesive strip. Small packages (parcels) can be sent in packages. They can be simple, custom or valuable. Depending on this, different packaging is used at Russian Post. To pack a simple parcel, kraft paper, envelopes, films and tape are used. Small items weighing up to three kilograms, documents, printed products are packaged in envelopes, plastic bags or thick paper (the wrapper must be tied and sealed.) A thick layer of plastic packaging protects its contents from direct exposure to sunlight, humidity, dust, and dirt.

    If the shipment is large and weighs up to 20 kilograms, then boxes of various types are used, which are carefully secured with tape along all edges of the packaging box. Boxes are made from cardboard or corrugated cardboard of various layers. The most common packaging at Russian Post is blue boxes with the Russian Post logo. Brown boxes are also accepted for delivery. Mailing boxes are made from corrugated three-layer cardboard, which copes well with shock loads, punctures, local shocks, and vibrations. Postal packaging for parcels and postal items is very high quality, effective and affordable packaging.

    One of the types of packaging at Russian Post is soft packaging (shell). It is used for packaging clothes, linen, carpets and other soft goods. For better preservation, such goods are additionally wrapped in polyethylene. You can also use a fabric shell (bag), for which durable, light-colored fabric is used.

    Standard packaging may not be reused.

    It is best to stock up on the necessary packaging in advance at Russian post offices and speed up the process of sending your attachment, because... Many people do the packing with the post office employee (operator), which creates queues and delays other customers.

    Packaging materials.

    At any Russian post office you can purchase standard packaging materials, the cost of which depends on the region in which you live.

    Packaging in the form of a paper envelope has only two varieties:

    A4 size 21 x 29.7 cm and A5 size 14.8 x 21 cm, which are used for sending documents and letters.

    The standard types of packaging and the most common include Russian Post boxes and plastic bags with a valve.

    Dimensions of standard types of packaging at Russian Post in centimeters:

    The packaging must be durable and prevent access to the contents of the parcel.

    Fragile items must be shipped in rigid packaging.

    Without additional packaging, you can send goods in original packaging.

    Rules for packaging parcels by Russian Post.

    Russian Post delivers correspondence using land, air, and combined routes. Therefore, for each cargo, the optimal packaging is selected taking into account the type of cargo, as well as the method of its delivery.

    If the parcel is transported by land, the sender can cover it with fabric at his discretion.

    Air transportation rules require that mailboxes and boxes weighing up to 3 kilograms be lined with fabric, unless the cargo includes fruits, vegetables, flowers, seedlings, and bees.

    If the parcel is sent over a long distance, it must be well and tightly packed. Depending on the type of parcel, the packaging may be made of wood or polymer, plywood, corrugated cardboard or cardboard.

    The boxed item must be tightly packed inside the box and not be able to fit. The attachments should be close to each other. Soft products can be packaged in soft polyethylene film. If fragile products or liquid substances sealed in glass or other containers are sent, then it is better to pack them in boxes, filling all free space with cotton wool, shavings, sawdust or polystyrene.

    Postal packaging for parcels and postal items.

    Postal packaging is an important part of any post office. It is designed for packaging items and goods that need to be transported. The filler can be paper, bubble wrap, sawdust, polystyrene, or cotton wool. The required type of filler is selected depending on the weight of the item being sent and its size, which significantly minimizes the risk of damage to the items.

    Cost of packaging at Russian Post.

    The cost of packaging when sending large parcels includes the cost of the box itself and the cost of auxiliary packaging materials.

    The cost of sending parcels by Russian Post depends on the weight of the parcel, the distance to which it is sent and the cost of assessing the enclosed cargo.
