Buying Guide

Match mil thickness to use

Choose 3–5 mil for everyday document protection and 10 mil or self-adhesive options for heavier items like badges or durable signage

Check sheet count vs. price

Consider sheet sizes and formats

Verify available sizes (letter, business-card, ID-badge, or varied packs) to avoid trimming and ensure a proper fit for your items
