Tri-Folds

Tri-fold brochures have become industry standard due to the simple and easy design. This fold creates three equal sections by folding the sides over the middle. This type of fold provides you with endless possibilities as far as design and copy. With help from Allegra, we can work with you to create the best possible read and explanation of your business’ products or services through the simple tri-fold brochure.

Z-Folds

Z-fold brochures are not as popular as tri-folds, but they are extremely versatile. A z-fold contains six panels. By folding a piece of paper into thirds, one third is folded forward and another is folded backward. When opened, the brochure looks like the letter Z. This type of fold opens up fully with one pull, meaning you can have you work span the entire paper, or work with our team to create something unique that displays your business’ products or services with tasteful design in mind.

Half Folds

Half-fold brochures are comparable to booklets or standard cards. This can open up a world of possibilities for your business to decide how they would like to showcase their products or services. Remember that you are not required to stay within the panels, and your work can span throughout the brochure. Or, take some tips from restaurant menus as to how you would like to style your brochure. Comparisons also work very well with a half-fold brochure as they are easily understandable by prospective customers.

Accordion Folds

An accordion fold is similar to a Z-fold, however, the accordion is folded several times instead of just twice. This gives you quite a lot of room for information, pictures, and other images that add to the allure of your business. Just one pull opens up a lens into your business’ products or services. This type of fold is also cost-effective compared to booklets, which can provide a similar amount of information and graphics.

Gate Folds

The gate fold brochure features three panels, larger than the panels of tri-fold brochures. This kind of brochure is unique in it’s fold and size, possibly assisting in your brochure standing out from the rest. With great copy and graphic design in mind during the making of your gate fold brochure, Allegra can work with you to help you accomplish a neat and exceptional brochure that accentuates your business’ products or services.

Whichever fold you decide on, Allegra is here to help. From design to printing, Allegra is ready to work with you to create the best brochure to help your business stand out.
