Plain business envelopes

Business Source 42117 envelopes are white, 24 lb wove paper stock sold in 500-count boxes. They suit offices that mail documents, catalogs, brochures or direct-mail pieces on a regular basis. The opaque construction keeps contents private during transit.

Gummed-flap closure limits

Each envelope uses a moisture-activated gummed flap that must be wetted before sealing. This works well for hand-applied mailings but is not compatible with automatic inserting equipment that requires peel-and-seal or press-seal closures. High-volume automated lines will need a different flap style.

Easy hand insertion

The open-ended design lets users slide flat materials in and out without fighting a tight throat. The main issue occurs when contents exceed the envelope's capacity; overstuffing prevents the gummed flap from sealing cleanly and can cause tears along the side seams.

Questions about this item

Should I choose the 500-count box or a smaller pack?

The 42117 is sold as a single 500-envelope box; no smaller pack size is offered for this model.

What does the 24 lb weight mean when I load these into a printer?

The 24 lb wove stock feeds reliably through most desktop printers while keeping contents opaque.

Does the gummed flap need a special moistener or will a damp sponge work?

A light pass with a damp sponge or envelope moistener activates the gum for a secure seal.
