The Marbig Foolscap Manilla Folders (Yellow, Box of 100, SKU 1108105) are heavyweight 170gsm manilla filing folders in foolscap size, sold 100 to a box and FSC certified - built for archiving, colour-coded filing and everyday paperwork across offices, schools and wards.

Key takeaways

• Made from durable 170gsm manilla board, FSC certified.

• Sold in a box of 100 - one box covers a large filing project or a whole team.
• Yellow is one of a range of colours, making them ideal for colour-coded filing systems.
• Suitable for archiving as well as active, day-to-day files.

What are the Marbig Foolscap Manilla Folders?

The Marbig Foolscap Manilla Folders are single-fold document folders made from quality manilla board and supplied in a bulk box of 100. As Marbig describes the range, they are "made from durable quality manilla board" and "ideal for all projects and personal files." The foolscap format gives you a little more room than A4, which is why manilla folders remain a filing-cabinet staple.

Why do 170gsm manilla folders matter?

The 170gsm board weight is the reason these folders hold up. That heavier stock resists dog-earing and sagging when a folder is packed, handled repeatedly or stood on edge in a drawer, so records stay protected rather than creased. Because the Marbig Foolscap Manilla Folders are also FSC certified, the board comes from responsibly managed forests - a point that matters for offices, schools and hospitals working to sustainable-procurement policies.

Features and benefits at a glance

Here are the confirmed specifications for the Marbig Foolscap Manilla Folders (Yellow, SKU 1108105):

The yellow colourway is what makes a box of 100 so useful: assign a colour to a department, a year or a status, and a filing cabinet becomes instantly scannable.

Where do the Marbig Foolscap Manilla Folders work best?

These folders suit any setting that still moves paper. Three examples show the range.

Office: In a small-to-medium office, one box of 100 sets up a whole client or project filing system in an afternoon. Use yellow for a single category - say, accounts or active contracts - so staff can find the right drawer at a glance.

Classroom: In an Australian school, foolscap folders give teachers extra room for worksheets, assessment scripts and permission notes. A box of 100 covers a full class set or a term's worth of student portfolios, with yellow flagging one subject or year level.

Hospital and clinical admin: On a ward or in medical records, manilla folders organise patient paperwork, observation charts, handover sheets and ward-admin forms. Colour-coding with yellow can mark a specific ward, clinic or record type, helping staff sort and retrieve files quickly. (These are general office folders, not a medical device.)

How do you get the most out of a box of 100?

Start by deciding what your colours mean before you open the box. Because the Marbig Foolscap Manilla Folders come in a range of colours, the simplest system is one colour per category - yellow for one stream, another colour for the next - so the code stays obvious to everyone. Keep a few spare folders at each desk or nurses' station for new files, and reserve a labelled section of the cabinet for archived folders, which the 170gsm board is sturdy enough to support over time.
