Why Choose Custom Kraft Binders
Custom binders made from recycled Eco Brown Kraft project a natural, sustainable brand story that people can see and feel. The raw, organic texture of the Kraft stock makes it an ideal canvas for minimalist designs, allowing your custom printed logo and message to stand out with clarity and purpose. The durable chipboard construction is perfect for corporate training manuals, reports, menus, and presentation materials, offering an eco-conscious footprint backed by 100% post-consumer recycled content.
To meet specific branding and functional requirements, these recycled binders offer a full choice of customization options. Select from various ring sizes, add pockets to the right, left, or both interior covers, and choose between PMS color matching or foil imprinting to complete a sustainable, branded, premium presentation. Custom Kraft binders offer an eco-friendly alternative to traditional binders, including vinyl, clear-view, entrapment, leather-like styles, most poly options, and film-laminated paper or turned-edge designs.
Tips to Customize Kraft Recycled Binders
- Use darker PMS spot colors or white opaque for high contrast against Kraft. Keep ink coverage light for the best results.
- Keep it minimal: a single PMS spot color lets the Kraft texture stand out.
- Choose foil stamping (Copper, Gold, Black) for a premium, tactile logo that complements the natural paper—metallic foils pop beautifully against recycled chipboard.
- Pick the ring size to fit your page count plus tabs (leave room for easy flipping).
- Opt for a right pocket for quick-grab inserts or two pockets for complete kits.
- Include the FREE business card slots for contact info.
- Add FREE eco-labels (PCW, Low VOC soy inks, Printed in the USA) on the inside pocket or back cover.
- Avoid large solid ink floods on Kraft. Spot graphics and negative space typically print best on recycled stock.
- Consider adding custom index tabs to make it easy for users to navigate through different sections of your documents.
