Copysafe Pockets

 

A copysafe pocket seals a single page in clear film so it survives years of handling in a binder. The decision comes down to weight and size. For a pocket that opens on two sides for quick reference instead, see L-shaped pockets.

A copysafe pocket, also called a sheet protector, is a clear plastic sleeve open along the top edge that holds a single sheet fully enclosed. It protects the page from finger marks, dust and creasing while it is flicked through in a binder. The pockets are punched to clip into ring binders and lever arch files.
Micron measures the thickness of the film. A standard pocket sits around 35 to 50 micron and suits documents that are filed and rarely handled. Heavy-duty pockets at 70 micron and premium grades up to 115 micron are stiffer and far harder to tear, which is what a reference binder in daily use needs.
A4 pockets are punched with the universal multi-hole pattern, so they clip into 2, 3 and 4-ring binders and lever arch files without lining up specific holes. A5 and A3 pockets suit smaller and larger binders respectively, with A3 available in portrait and landscape for charts and plans.
They protect documents from everyday handling and dust, which covers most office filing. For long-term archival storage of valuable or historical documents, acid-free archival sleeves are the better choice, since standard pockets are not rated for decades of direct contact with paper.
Most copysafe pockets come in boxes of 100 for volume filing, with smaller packs of 10 available for low use. Buying a box at a time works out cheaper per pocket and saves reordering, which is why busy offices keep a box in the stationery cupboard.

Pockets by weight and size

Standard copysafe pockets handle everyday filing and come in boxes of 100. Premium and heavy-duty grades, from 70 to 115 micron, resist tearing in reference folders that get used daily. Sizes cover A4, A5 and A3 in both portrait and landscape, all punched with the universal multi-hole pattern so they clip into any ring binder or lever arch file.

Weight and size

Every copysafe pocket does the same basic job, holding one page in a clear sleeve open along the top, so the choice is really about how hard the pocket has to work and what size paper it holds. Standard pockets are fine for documents that get filed and left alone, and they come in boxes of 100 for volume use. For a binder that gets opened every day, heavy-duty pockets at 70 micron and premium grades up to 115 micron are stiffer, hold their shape and shrug off the tearing that wears out thinner film. Sizes run A4, A5 and A3, with A3 in both portrait and landscape for charts and plans.

Fitting any binder

A4 pockets are punched with the universal multi-hole pattern, which means they clip straight into 2, 3 and 4-ring binders and lever arch files without matching up specific holes. That keeps one box of pockets compatible with every binder in the office. The binders and files they fit are in ring binders and lever arch files.

Related filing consumables

For a pocket that opens on two sides so a document slides in and out fast, L-shaped pockets suit reference rather than filing. The rest of the consumables that go inside a binder, including tab dividers and fasteners, are in filing supplies. Orders over $30 ship free across NZ, and bulk orders qualify for Business Pass account pricing.
