Most clear file folders are made from plastic—commonly polypropylene—or are listed simply as generic plastic in the product details.
Clear file folders use a variety of closures and fasteners, including pronged and non-pronged binder attachments, 3-hole punched options for binders, swing or rotating clips, hooks for hanging folders, and envelope-style button-and-string closures.
Most clear file folders are fully transparent for easy document visibility; some hanging folders and specialty products are offered in a frosted poly finish.
Clear file folders often include organizational aids such as clear front pockets for cover sheets or labels, adjustable tabs with pre-printed and blank inserts, and labeled interior pockets to help sort papers for school or home use.
Pack sizes range from single items to multi-packs. Common listed quantities include 1, 3, 5, 10, 15, and 36 pieces, depending on the product.
