Smead Fastener File Folders, Letter Size, Lavender, Reinforced 1/3-Cut Top Tab, 2 Fasteners, 11pt, 50/Box (12440)

Add a clear visual signal to your active files with Smead’s Lavender Fastener File Folders, item 12440. The soft purple color stands out just enough in a drawer without screaming for attention, while 11 pt colored stock and a reinforced 1/3-cut top tab hold up to everyday shuffling and refiling.

Inside each folder, two 2" prong K-style fasteners on the front and back panels keep pages locked in place and in order. Folders are scored to expand up to 3/4", so you can build out thicker charts, packets and project files without switching systems halfway through.

Lavender is a great choice for special handling, sensitive information or a specific workstream—use it for clinical trials, legal matters, year-end work, or any category that needs its own color at a glance. These folders fit standard letter-size file drawers, mobile carts and desktop sorters.

Finish the setup with filing labels so names, dates and project codes are easy to scan as you flip through the drawer.
