Smead Poly File Folders, Letter Size, Red, 1/3-Cut Tab, 1" Expansion, 24/Box (10501)

Smead Poly File Folders are a durable alternative to traditional paper or manila folders, giving you a stronger way to organize frequently handled documents. This box includes 24 red letter-size poly folders with 1/3-cut tabs, making them a practical choice for office filing, school records, client files, project paperwork, household documents, and color-coded filing systems.

Each folder is made from sturdy poly material that resists tearing, creasing, and everyday wear better than standard paper folders. The red color makes files easy to identify in a drawer, cabinet, tote, or file box, especially when you want to separate records by department, priority, customer type, subject, or project status. Use them for bills, vehicle records, recipes, student information, medical office paperwork, forensic files, active projects, or any documents that need to be handled repeatedly.

The 1/3-cut tab layout provides three common tab positions for labeling and quick file identification. This helps keep your filing system neat and consistent while making it easier to find the folder you need. The clear slash pocket on the front adds extra function by giving you a visible place for a cover sheet, temporary note, routing document, or small insert. This makes the folder useful not only for storage, but also for presentations, handoffs, and active document workflows.

These folders also feature up to 1" expansion, allowing each folder to hold up to approximately 225 sheets of paper. That added capacity makes them useful for thicker files that would quickly outgrow a standard flat folder. Whether used in a filing cabinet, desktop file sorter, portable file box, or storage container, Smead poly folders help protect paperwork while keeping it organized and easy to retrieve.

Why Choose Poly File Folders?

Poly folders are a smart choice when standard paper folders wear out too quickly. They are especially helpful for active files that are pulled, opened, moved, or reused often. The strong poly construction helps reduce torn edges and worn corners, while the bright red color improves visibility and makes file sorting easier.
