Window Envelopes

Window envelopes make business mailing simpler and more efficient. Each envelope includes a clear, die-cut window that displays the recipient’s name and address directly from the document inside.

As a result, you can skip labels and double-addressing while keeping your mail clean and professional. Because of this built-in efficiency, window envelopes have become the standard choice for invoices, statements, and business checks. They help reduce handling time, minimize errors, and keep outgoing mail consistent.
Window envelopes are available in industry-standard sizes such as #10, #9, and 6 ¾, making them compatible with most accounting and billing software.

You can also choose features like inside security tint for added privacy or self-seal flaps to speed up high-volume mailings.
