Presentation Folders: glued vs interlocking
Interlocking or Glued Presentation Folders?
Printed presentation folders are a useful addition to any company’s print collection.
For businesses, custom presentation folders are the perfect finishing touch to their business stationery. For marketing and design agencies, they are a professional way to collate pitch designs and details to leave with the client. Whether they are designed with client branding, agency branding, or with the pitch design, creative presentation folders are an impressive addition to every print portfolio.
With a choice of glued or interlocking folders, and a range of sizes, shapes, capacities and materials, we have a folder to suit every need.
