Whether it's for a catalogue, a dossier or an event programme, at Copykrea you'll find the tri-fold brochure size that best suits your project: A5, DL, A6, A7 and A8. A compact format in hand, but with three panels per side to develop your content without feeling cramped.

Tri-Fold Brochures

Different paper types

Not every project calls for the same paper. That's why you can choose from different weights, from 130 to 200 grams, depending on whether you want a lighter tri-fold brochure for large print runs or one with more body and a premium feel. Finish it off with a matte, more understated, or gloss finish to make the colours pop.

Tri-Fold Brochures

Roll fold or gate fold: you choose the effect

A roll fold folds the side panels inward, one over the other, so the reader discovers your message step by step. A gate fold, on the other hand, folds the two outer panels towards the centre, leaving a cover that opens like a little window. You choose the effect.

Do you have questions about the service?

  • When and where do I need to upload my print file?

    For printing products, you must upload your file after completing and paying for your order. Once you have completed the payment, you will see a confirmation page with your order number and a direct link to the File Transfer section. From there, you can upload your print file so we can start preparing your order.

    If you do not upload it at that time, you can also do it later from your customer area, by entering the File Transfer section. You will only need to select upload file, add your design, and click on "finish and send".

    Please note that the production of your order will begin once we have correctly received the print file.

  • When will I receive my order? 

    Delivery time depends on the production method selected. With standard production, you will receive your order in approximately 5 to 8 days working days. If you need it sooner, we also offer express and priority production methods. For more detailed information about delivery times, please visit our "Production and Shipping Methods" page (see here).

  • What sizes can I choose?

    We offer several sizes so you can pick the one that best suits your project and how you plan to hand it out. Check all the available options in this product's configurator.

  • Which paper types work best?

    It depends on what you're using it for. For large print runs, a lighter weight is enough; for a more premium feel, go for something thicker. Each paper type also has its own character: coated paper is smooth and makes colours pop, satin has a silky feel with a softer sheen, and laid paper shows a fine-lined texture for a classic, elegant look. To finish, choose a matte or gloss finish depending on the style you're after.

  • Can I print them double-sided?

    Yes. You can choose single or double-sided printing depending on what you need to say. Just select the option you prefer when configuring your order.

  • Do they arrive already folded?

    Your order arrives already folded and ready to use, with nothing else for you to do. Just open the box and start handing out or delivering your copies.

  • What is a tri-fold brochure?

    A tri-fold brochure is a sheet folded twice, dividing it into three panels per side and six readable spaces in total. It's ideal for catalogues, dossiers, event programmes or any content you want to present in parts, in an organised, clear way.

  • How do I organise the content of a tri-fold brochure?

    Think in three blocks. The cover needs to grab attention straight away; the middle panels are where you develop your message step by step; and the last panel is your chance to close with contact details or a call to action.
