Exacompta A4 conventional file folder 55528E — blue, fits A4 sheets

Exacompta A4 conventional file folder 55528E is a blue folder designed to store and organise standard A4 sheets. Made from solid 400 g/m² cardboard, it offers a firm structure while remaining lightweight for everyday handling. The folder includes an elastic band fastener to keep documents secure during transport or storage.

Advantages

The firm 400 g/m² cardboard provides stable protection for papers and resists bending in typical office and archive conditions. The elastic band fastener secures loose sheets without the need for additional clips or binders. Its compact A4 format and low weight make it convenient for filing, carrying between meetings, or stacking in storage.

Suitable for

• Organising and storing A4 documents in offices
• Archival storage of loose sheets and reports
• Transporting paperwork between locations
• Everyday paperwork management at home or work

When it may not be suitable

This folder is not intended for heavy-duty protection against water, impact or long-term exposure to harsh conditions; it is made of cardboard and does not provide waterproofing. It also lacks ring mechanisms or indexed dividers, so it may be less suitable when frequent page-level access or complex multi-section organisation is required.

How to use

Insert A4 documents into the folder so they lie flat; align edges to avoid folding.
