Trifolds are a popular promotional tool in commercial printing and promotional activities. Accurate design, clear printing, and high-quality paper all enable information to be delivered effectively. A good trifold should not only have attractive design and content, the quality and type of paint, but also an important and often overlooked factor, that is the grams of paper. To be precise, a lot of people face a problem: How many grams of paper is needed? This article will answer that question in detail.

First, we have to understand what the "gram" of paper is. Grams of paper usually indicate its thickness and hardness, in grams per square meter (g/m2). The choice of grams of paper largely determines the quality and durability of the printed matter.

If you need a light, easy to spread and economical storage of three folds, 90-128g/m2 paper is an ideal choice. The grams of paper is light and feels good for everyday business use, such as restaurant menus, safety instructions on airplanes, and various billboards.

However, if you want something that lasts longer and shows high qualitytrifoldFor example: Product catalogs, seminars or seminar materials, 157-200g/m2 paper is recommended. This paper is heavy and stable, has a heavy feel in the hand, appears more professional.

Also, if your trifolds need a higher level of protection, such as moisture resistance, or need to be held frequently or will be placed on a display stand for a while, then 200-300g/m2 paper is a good choice. This kind of paper is thicker, so wear resistance is strong, life is longer.

After all this theory, I'd like to share some practical ideas: The print type also affects the selection of grams of paper. For example, if your three-folder is a large-area full-color printing, it is best to use larger grams of paper, because small grams of paper is prone to ink absorption and curl deformation.

In conclusion, the number of grams of three-fold paper is measured based on its use scenario, content, expected durability, and printing method. Only comprehensive consideration of these factors, choose the most suitable paper grams, can maximize the effect and influence of three folds.

Finally, it should be emphasized that: The quality of the three folds depends not only on the grams of the paper, but also on the fineness and clarity of the design, as well as the quality of the printing. Do each step well, in order to launch a high-quality three-fold.
