Paper & Board File
Record / Tag File
A Record File (or Tag File) is
a physical, typically cardboard, envelope folder used to store and organize A4 or legal-sized documents. It features a top hole and sometimes a cloth strip for securing papers with tags or fasteners. These files are used in offices, schools, and for archiving to protect documents.
Key Features:
-
Physical Structure: Usually made of stiff paper or cardboard, measuring roughly inches, capable of holding 15–50 pages.
-
Types: Available in "Thin" (plain) or "Thick" (heavy-duty/binding cloth strip) variants for different storage needs.
-
Usage: Used to organize documents by project, client, or type. The top-left hole allows for binding with fasteners or thread.
-
Handling Tips: When dealing with archived tag files, ensure the tag length is at least twice the paper stack height to prevent tearing the holes.
Physical File Options:
-
Plain Record File: Standard, lightweight paper folder.
-
Binding Cloth Strip File: Durable option for long-term storage.
