End Tab Classification Folders for Shelf Filing

These end tab classification folders are designed for open shelf filing systems. They place the tab on the side edge of the folder, making labels easy to read when folders are stored upright on shelves.

Use end tab classification folders when you need one file to hold several organized document sections, such as medical charts, legal case files, client records, insurance files, personnel records, or detailed project paperwork. Internal dividers and fasteners help keep related documents separated inside one folder.

Need classification folders for traditional drawer filing instead? Shop our top tab classification folders, which are made for top-view labeling in file drawers and standard filing cabinets.
