Iron Cross Folds

Distinctive designs get noticed.

Iron cross folding sequences build intrigue as end users engage themselves in the unfolding of your story or message.  With some careful design thought, you can meet your promotional needs with this attractive and versatile fold.

  

Planning Suggestions

  • Panels may open in any sequence, but panel sizes must be adjusted based on which panels open first.
  • Plan opening sequence carefully for maximum marketing effect.
  • Additional hanging panels may be attached to the first leg in the fold sequence (see above).
  • Minimum paper weight is 70# enamel text or 60# offset text. Don’t use any sheet heavier than 100# coated cover.
  • Channel score when die cutting.
  • 6”x 6” and 8”x 8” products are very popular sizes.
  • Panels may be rectangular-shaped instead of square. Also panels can be eliminated or added to create “T” or “L” shapes.
  • Large quantities are fine - Rickard Bindery has modified over a dozen folders to fold iron crosses.
  • Many projects are wafer-sealed or glued shut and 
    can be manufactured inline for use as self-mailers.
  • Iron cross folds may have extra panels attaching to other panels in virtually endless combinations.  For example, Rickard Bindery produced a one-million piece order of an iron cross fold like the configuration shown to the right.
