Drawing Folder CANSON Annonay model C20000312700 — rigid cardboard cover, white acid-free inner paper, for sheets up to 780 × 1150 mm

CANSON Annonay drawing folder model C20000312700 is a single-piece protective portfolio with a rigid cardboard cover and white acid-free inner paper. It is designed to store, transport and protect large-format sheets up to 780 × 1150 mm, providing flat, archival-safe support for drawings, prints, watercolours and graphic works. The folder is intended for temporary storage and movement of sheets while limiting exposure to bending, dust and direct contact.

Advantages

The rigid cardboard cover offers firm support and protection against mechanical damage, while the white acid-free inner paper helps prevent long-term deterioration and yellowing of stored artworks. Its one-piece construction keeps sheets flat without the need for separate folders or clips, and the large internal dimensions accommodate oversized artworks up to 780 × 1150 mm. The neutral white interior reduces colour shift when assessing tones and details.

Suitable for

• Artists working with large-format sketches, charcoal, pencil and watercolour on paper
• Architects and designers transporting plans, blueprints and presentation boards
• Graphic studios and print services storing unframed prints and proofs
• Conservation tasks that require short-term archival-safe support during handling

When it may not be suitable

This folder is intended for flat storage and transport of paper-based works; it is not designed to provide cushioning against heavy impacts or to hold framed, thick or textured works that exceed the stated sheet dimensions. It also does not offer sealed moisture protection for long-term storage in damp environments.

Key specifications

• Cover: rigid cardboard
• Inner material: white acid-free paper
• Maximum sheet size accommodated: 780 × 1150 mm
• Construction: single-piece folder for flat support

How to use

Place individual sheets carefully into the folder so that edges align with the internal dimensions and the artwork lies flat. Close the folder and carry it horizontally to avoid sliding or shifting of contents. For transport, place the folder within a protective outer container or flat carrier if higher mechanical protection is required. When storing, keep the folder in a cool, dry location away from direct sunlight and sources of high humidity.

What to consider before purchase

• Verify that your largest sheet dimensions do not exceed 780 × 1150 mm.
• Consider whether additional cushioning or rigid shipping boxes are needed for transport.
• Assess storage conditions: this folder is not a sealed moisture barrier.
• Decide if archival-grade requirements demand long-term storage solutions beyond a single-folder system.

Usage recommendations

Use the folder for short- to medium-term storage and transport of flat, paper-based artworks. For fragile originals, interleave sheets with additional acid-free tissue and avoid stacking heavy objects on top of the folder.
